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.
West Virginia is a state located primarily in the Appalachian Mountains. The lowlands see mild winters and hot summers, while the higher elevations are prone to large amounts of snow.
