How Warp routes the Dayton to Denver lane

Dayton is positioned on I-75 midway between Cincinnati and Toledo, with I-70 crossing east toward Columbus and west toward Indianapolis.

I-25 runs north to Fort Collins and south to Colorado Springs and Pueblo.
Carbon footprint of LTL freight from Dayton to Denver
A single pallet moving from Dayton to Denver over 1,198 miles emits approximately 74 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 1,929 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 7 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).
