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 North Carolina

LTL freight rates can be more expensive in the rural areas of North Carolina and slightly above average in the more populated areas due to the factors listed above. The ease and cost of shipping into or out of North Carolina can be heavily based on proximity to major metro areas.
