Transit

Same day to next morning

Transit assumes a solo driver under hours-of-service rules and is subject to your pickup and receiving appointment windows.

  • Palletized general freight
  • Over-dimensional machinery on step deck or RGN

Interstate permits

Anything over-dimensional on this lane crosses a state line, which means Texas and Louisiana permits and two sets of rules about escorts and travel windows. We handle the permitting and the route survey before the truck loads.

Bridges and restrictions

The I-10 corridor through the Atchafalaya Basin has structures that constrain heavy and over-dimensional loads. Route survey happens up front, not at the scale house.

What does this lane cost?

We do not publish a rate here, because a truckload rate that is accurate this week is wrong next month — capacity and fuel move it constantly. Send us the weight, the commodity and your dates and you will have a real number within the hour during business hours.
