St. Petersburg Freight Shipping
Freight shipping to and from the St. Petersburg, Florida, area is an essential part of the freight logistics industry. The city's location makes it a hub for freight transportation, with ports on both coasts, a major international airport, and numerous freight-handling facilities in the region. The Port of Tampa Bay is the largest port in Florida and one of the top 20 busiest ports in the United States. Shipping via this port primarily involves container cargo, bulk freight, project cargo such as heavy machinery or yachts, and automotive freight. The freight shipping market in Tampa Bay consists primarily of domestic freight shipments within the United States and Puerto Rico, but they also handle imports from Latin America and exports to Europe. St. Petersburg International Airport (PIE) is another central freight hub in the region, mainly handling air freight shipments. The airport provides air cargo services for commercial airlines such as FedEx, UPS, and private carriers. Some specialty companies at PIE include aircraft charter operators for large freight shipments or smaller companies that provide local delivery services throughout Tampa Bay via ground freight trucks or small planes.

Cost to Ship Freight to St. Petersburg
The time of year and what part of the country a shipment is shipping to and from will affect the cost of a freight shipping quote. Part of a freight cost is the linehaul, and the farther a shipment has to travel, the more fuel is used, and the more expensive the trip will be for the carrier and, in turn, the customer. A shipment from Seattle, WA, to St. Petersburg, FL, will be more expensive than a shipment originating from a neighboring state or city.
Among other factors affecting freight cost will be the item’s size, weight, density, and commodity being shipped. Certain commodities are given a higher freight class which correlates to a higher price to ship. The more dense and less fragile a shipment is, its freight class will typically be lower.
Freight shipping accessorials will factor into the pricing. Some examples include overlength charges, limited access pick-up/deliveries, and lift gate delivery.
