FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Trailer Bridge To Provide Assistance in Haiti Relief Effort Through

Military Sealift Command Contract and Movement of Donated Medical Supplies

Jacksonville, FL – January 21, 2010 — Trailer Bridge, Inc. (NASDAQ Global Market: TRBR) (the “Company”) today provided an update on its efforts as part of the global relief effort to Haiti.

Trailer Bridge contracted with the Military Sealift Command (MSC), the transportation provider for the United States Department of Defense, to provide one of its vessels in support of the U.S. government’s relief efforts in Haiti. The contract term is a minimum of 90 days and may be extended by MSC.

Trailer Bridge has also partnered with one of its current shipping customers to provide free transportation and trailers for donated medical supplies to Port-au-Prince, Haiti, through the Company’s operation in Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic. It is expected that the Company’s donated trailers will remain in Haiti for local use or storage. A Jacksonville warehousing provider has also donated its services to make the move possible. Trailer Bridge will coordinate the freight move, which it expects to leave from Jacksonville, Florida, to Haiti on January 22, 2010.

Trailer Bridge’s Chief Executive Officer, Ivy Barton Suter, stated, “Everyone at Trailer Bridge expresses their deepest concern for the people of Haiti, and we will continue to work closely with U.S. and local governments to explore varying avenues to help. Given Trailer Bridge’s available vessel capacity and service to the Dominican Republic, we believe our assets and transportation system can greatly assist in the ongoing relief and rebuilding effort.”
