LTL freight from Milwaukee to Los Angeles

Milwaukee to Los Angeles is served by 11 carriers in the Warp network. Traditional carrier rates on this lane range from $396 to $666 per pallet with transit times of 3 to 9 days.

Warp prices this lane at $400 per pallet with 5-day transit through the Milwaukee cross-dock facility. Milwaukee is Wisconsin's largest city and a major freight hub on Lake Michigan, positioned on I-94 between Chicago and Green Bay.

The city's industrial heritage runs through manufacturing, food and beverage processing (including Harley-Davidson, Molson Coors, and a strong dairy and food processing base), and healthcare.

Los Angeles is the entry point for nearly 40 percent of US container imports, and the local LTL market reflects that scale.

The I-710 corridor from the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach into Vernon, Compton, and the City of Industry carries the highest concentration of short-haul freight in the country.

Carbon footprint of LTL freight from Milwaukee to Los Angeles

A single pallet moving from Milwaukee to Los Angeles over 2,058 miles emits approximately 127 kg CO2e via Warp cross-dock LTL — your pallet's 1 of 26 share of a 53ft dry van on the linehaul leg.

The same truck fully loaded emits about 3,313 kg CO2e on this corridor, which is what a dedicated FTL move would cost at the same mileage regardless of how many pallets ride.

Figures use EPA SmartWay emission factors and cover tank-to-wheel fuel combustion at typical payload. For a recurring program at 100 pallets per year on this lane, the attributed LTL emissions are approximately 13 metric tons CO2e.

These numbers are suitable for Scope 3 Category 4 estimation under the GHG Protocol; see the Warp carbon methodology page for assumptions, sources, and what is excluded (pickup and delivery legs, empty-mile variance, well-to-tank upstream fuel, vehicle embodied emissions).
