Baltimore is a port city with a local LTL market shaped by proximity to both the Port of Baltimore and the Washington DC metro directly to the south.
Local ltl Baltimore freight flows through a few distinct zones: the I-95 and I-695 industrial belt through Jessup, Halethorpe, and Arbutus on the southwest, where consumer goods and food distribution concentrate; the White Marsh and Essex corridor on the northeast side; and the Inner Harbor and Fells Point commercial zone, where hospitality and specialty retail accounts require tight delivery windows and smaller equipment.
The Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill Triangle is one of the fastest-growing metro areas in the Southeast and a major hub for life sciences, technology, and research.
Research Triangle Park anchors demand for laboratory supplies, pharmaceutical cold chain, and IT equipment freight from a world-class research and corporate campus.
Carbon footprint of LTL freight from Baltimore to Raleigh
A single pallet moving from Baltimore to Raleigh over 300 miles emits approximately 19 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 483 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 2 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).
