Virginia Freight Shipping
Virginia Freight Shipping

Virginia is located in the center of the Atlantic coast. The state’s eastern half is largely flat, while the western half is part of several mountain ranges, including the Appalachian and Cumberland Mountains. Virginia has a busy agricultural sector, as well as a large business sector. Four international airports and a busy seaport make international freight shipping affordable on the coast. The major seaport at the Virginia Port of Authority connects to the railway system, making Virginia freight most affordable by rail. Trucking can be difficult in the rugged western half of the state, making most rural Virginia shipping quite expensive. LTL freight is affordable close to the population centers, with shipping prices increasing significantly in more remote areas.

Freight companies utilizing these routes can use various dropoff points along these highways to make deliveries quickly and efficiently. In addition, freight shippers have access to ports on both sides of Mobile Bay, providing access to international shipments and import/export operations.

How to Ship Freight from Virginia to Alabama

When shipping from Virginia to Alabama, start by gathering accurate information on what you are shipping, like the weight and dimensions, including the packaging. Cargo is handled multiple times via forklift trucks and pallet jacks. Freight must be appropriately packaged to withstand being moved and left alone traveling in the back of a semi-trailer. This is why crating your shipment is recommended when shipping any distance.
