What is the difference between Warp LTL and the other carriers on Warp?

Warp LTL is Warp's own all inclusive hub-and-spoke LTL carrier service. The other carriers on the platform are major LTL providers you can also book on Warp at FAK negotiated rates: national carriers like XPO Logistics, Old Dominion, Estes Express, Saia, FedEx Freight, ABF Freight, R+L Carriers, TForce Freight, and Forward Air, plus regional specialists like Pitt Ohio, Averitt Express, AAA Cooper, Ward Trucking, Dohrn Transfer, Daylight Transport, and 23+ more across the network. Warp LTL usually has the lowest all in cost on El Paso to Chicago because the rate at booking equals the rate invoiced. The carrier options give you flexibility when you prefer a specific provider for service level or transit reasons. One signup, one invoice, one point of accountability across all of them.

What are FAK rates on Warp?

FAK stands for Freight All Kinds. It is a single negotiated rate that applies regardless of the commodity's freight class, typically 15 to 25% lower than class based rates. Direct LTL carriers usually reserve FAK pricing for shippers with $1M+ annual spend. Warp negotiates FAK rates with every major LTL carrier on the platform and passes them through to every shipper, starting from the first booking. That means a small business shipping its first pallet on Warp gets the same FAK rates as an enterprise shipper moving thousands.

LTL freight from El Paso to Chicago

El Paso to Chicago is served by 23 carriers in the Warp network.

Traditional carrier rates on this lane range from $375 to $518 per pallet with transit times of 3 to 4 days. Warp prices this lane at $361 per pallet with 4-day transit.

El Paso is the largest US-Mexico border crossing by land freight volume, and nearly every aspect of local LTL in this market is shaped by cross-border logistics.

The Juarez-El Paso industrial corridor processes billions in maquiladora output each year, and the local freight ecosystem on the US side is built around receiving, staging, and distributing that freight after customs clearance.

Chicago is the largest inland freight hub in North America.

Seven Class I railroads terminate here, and the highway grid funnels I-80, I-90, I-94, I-55, and I-290 into a dense urban core with some of the most complex dock access conditions in the country.

Carbon footprint of LTL freight from El Paso to Chicago

A single pallet moving from El Paso to Chicago over 1,483 miles emits approximately 92 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 2,388 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 9 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).
