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.
Tennessee is located in the southeastern portion of the United States. Though some parts of the terrain are quite mountainous, the valleys and plains of Tennessee support major agriculture and textile manufacture industries. An extensive network of railroads make rail shipping one of the cheapest ways to move Tennessee freight. During the fall, outbound Tennessee freight shipping rates tend to increase significantly. The different industries make freight rates somewhat volatile, and the mountains and cold winters can serve to further increase prices. LTL freight shipping is most affordable in the population centers, and international airports make air shipping a possibility.
