Shipping from Connecticut
Connecticut freight rates Connecticut freight rates are almost always more affordable leaving the state. The state is a heavy consumption state, so lots of freight moves into the state. This leaves an abundance of trucks eager to ship your truckload freight out of Connecticut. LTL rates are very affordable, especially in the urban areas, due to the larger quantity of trucks moving. Intermodal freight rates are average. The ease and cost of shipping into or out of Connecticut can be heavily based on proximity to major metro areas.
Shipping to Florida
Florida freight rates Florida outbound freight rates during the fall and winter are very affordable compared to the summer months. Shipping freight to Florida during the summer is also the best way to get the cheapest freight rates. Because of the produce industry, freight rates during peak summer months are more expensive when shipping freight out of Florida. Due to tourism and lack of major industry, Florida is a very consumption-heavy state. This makes overall freight rates higher when shipping in, lower when trucking out. With a port in Jacksonville, international freight shipping is busy here and import/exports are common. LTL freight rates in Florida are generally low due to high volume and competition. The ease and cost of shipping into or out of Florida can be heavily based on proximity to major metro areas.
