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 San Diego

San Diego, CA freight rates The Port of San Diego offers two maritime cargo terminals, and the community is working to increase capacity to balance export cargo with its abundant import freight. The port specializes in break-bulk and roll-on/roll-off cargoes. Its National City Marine Terminal handles the import and export of vehicles and heavy equipment, with a 140-acre on-dock facility that’s able to hold 120 railcars for automobile loading and unloading. The port’s terminals also handle windmill generator components from Japan and windmill products from Europe and South America, as well as fruit and dry goods. The San Diego County Regional Airport recently added direct service to London and Tokyo to increase cargo shipping opportunities to those markets. One service the region is lacking is rail. San Diego is served by stub-end service from one Class I carrier, and a short line connection to a Mexican carrier. Though new outlets are being investigated, the current Class I service is limited for freight because of the abundance of passenger trains using the local infrastructure.
