Shipping from Massachusetts

The state is high consumption, so numerous goods need to be transported into the state - this decreases outbound freight rates due to a high availability of outbound trucks. Massachusetts has three major ports, the Boston location is one of the biggest in the U.S. Access to these ports and a major rail line make intermodal freight rates a great option. LTL freight is high in volume in the area so great LTL freight prices can be found easily. The ease and cost of shipping into or out of Massachusetts can be heavily based on proximity to major metro areas.
