Shipping from Denver

Denver, CO freight rates Denver offers a few challenges when shipping in and out of The Mile High City. The mountainous terrain and unpredictable weather can make truck transport a hazardous endeavor during the winter. During other seasons, outbound freight will likely be less expensive than shipping into Denver, and LTL shipping can often be found for affordable rates. Metro Denver has made significant improvements to the region’s transportation infrastructure in the past decade with development of the area’s beltway and toll roads. In addition to trucking, a pair of Class I railroads provide freight service to metro Denver. One way to efficiently move cargo in and out of Denver is via air. The Denver International Airport’s efficient airfield and 39-acre cargo ramp make freight handling easy. Within 20 miles of the airport are 50 freight forwarders and customs brokers.

Shipping to Houston

Houston TX google maps

Houston, Texas freight rates Whether by sea, highway or rail, a major portion of the country’s freight passes in and out of the Houston region. The region is home to the ports of Houston, Galveston, Freeport and Texas City. The Port of Houston ranks first in the U.S. in foreign tonnage and is the largest container port in the Gulf Coast, handling 66 percent of Gulf Coast container traffic in 2013. A recent expansion of the Panama Canal to allow larger ocean freighters should increase port traffic. As one of the nation’s busiest rail centers, the Houston region has a rail network of more than 800 miles of rail line and 21 miles of railroad bridges. Additionally, 10 major rail companies serve the Houston region and 150 trucking lines connect the Port of Houston to the continental U.S., Canada and Mexico. Houston is the crossroads for Interstate Highways 10 and 45, as well as several state highways.
