LTL freight from Houston to Raleigh

Houston to Raleigh is served by 11 carriers in the Warp network.

Traditional carrier rates on this lane range from $319 to $471 per pallet with transit times of 2 to 7 days.

Warp prices this lane at $256 per pallet with 4-day transit through the Houston cross-dock facility.

Houston is the largest city in Texas and the energy capital of the country, which shapes its local LTL market in ways unlike any other major metro.

Energy sector logistics, including oilfield equipment, chemical supply, and industrial components, run alongside a massive consumer goods and retail distribution base.

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 Houston to Raleigh

A single pallet moving from Houston to Raleigh 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).
