Alabama produces many different resources, both agricultural and industrial, that are shipped by freight. The state has mild winters that make winter freight trucking safer and easier than many other parts of the country. The peak of the outbound Alabama shipping season is the hot summer harvest, but low freight prices can still be found for freight trucks traveling from other locations into the state. The state's major port is located in the city of Mobile on the Gulf Coast, providing an excellent resource for international shipping. Alabama freight can also be shipped on both the rail system and the extensive network of waterways. The northeast portion of Alabama is part of the Appalachian Mountains.
North Carolina is a southern state on the Atlantic coast. While the eastern half of the state consists of fertile plains, the western half is quite mountainous. North Carolina freight rates can be quite volatile due to the agriculture, lumber, and manufacturing industries as well as the weather. The coastal location can make North Carolina shipping rates most affordable on the eastern side of the state. Low prices on inbound shipping can often be found during the fall months, when outbound prices increase. Due to low consumption and low volume of goods moving through the state, LTL freight rates can be higher than normal in North Carolina.
