Illinois freight shipping
Illinois is probably the busiest state in the Midwest, with the metropolitan area of Chicago being a major Illinois freight shipping hub. There is a major port here that connects the Great Lakes to the Mississippi river, allowing for inexpensive water transport. Illinois freight shipping by rail is also very inexpensive and easy to use, as Chicago is one of the largest railroad hubs in the country. There is also an extensive highway system that helps move the high volume of goods produced in Illinois from agriculture, meat and dairy production, and energy production. LTL freight shipping is usually quite affordable due to the high volume of goods moving in, out, and through the state.
Tennessee freight shipping
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.
