Shipping from Portland

Portland, OR freight rates The Greater Portland region serves as a major West Coast freight hub and is a critical link for Pacific Northwest trade. The region is home to two world-class ports, the Port of Vancouver USA and Port of Portland, which can be reached from Asian ports in 14 days. Greater Portland is the only major metro market in the western U.S. where two Class I railroads converge. This allows companies to benefit from negotiating costs. Interstates 5 and 84 are major inter-regional highways that intersect in the Portland metro area. And the Portland International Airport is served by 13 air cargo carriers. Oregon’s agriculture and lumber industries provide a steady stream of freight moving through the state. This results in affordable LTL shipping in Portland. Moving freight via truck may be more expensive in Portland and the rest of the western half of the state due to the rugged terrain.

Shipping to Los Angeles

Los Angeles, CA freight rates More than 100,000 metric tons of international goods are transported annually through the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, which handle over 40 percent of all inbound containers for the entire United States. Shippers can efficiently move freight to and from the ports using the Alameda Corridor, a 20-mile-long rail cargo expressway linking the ports to the transcontinental rail network near downtown Los Angeles. In addition, an excellent freeway and highway system allows multimodal transport and efficient origination for cross-country delivery. Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) is another component of the region’s international trade. LAX handles high-value products, such as medical instruments, electronics and perishables and processes about 2 million tons of cargo annually. The airport is served by 43 international carriers and all major air freight lines.
