Freight rates by state FAQ

How much does it cost to ship freight in the United States?+

Truckload freight typically prices between roughly $1.85 and $2.60 per mile depending on trailer type, with shorter hauls carrying a higher per-mile premium. Rates vary state by state based on freight demand and truck supply.

Which states have the highest freight rates?+

States with heavy outbound demand and limited inbound freight — such as California, Texas, and Florida during peak produce season — usually carry the highest outbound per-mile rates.

Why do freight rates differ from state to state?+

Every state has its own balance of inbound and outbound freight. When more loads leave a state than trucks arrive, carriers price outbound freight higher because they can be selective.
