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 11+ more across the network. Warp LTL usually has the lowest all in cost on Miami to San Francisco 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.

Why Shippers Choose Warp on Miami to San Francisco
How Warp routes the Miami to San Francisco lane
LTL freight from Miami to San Francisco
Miami to San Francisco is served by 11 carriers in the Warp network.
Traditional carrier rates on this lane range from $706 to $1061 per pallet with transit times of 4 to 7 days. Warp prices this lane at $274 per pallet with 5-day transit.
Miami's local LTL market is shaped by three forces that do not exist together anywhere else in the country: a major international airport (MIA) with one of the highest cargo volumes in North America, the Port of Miami handling cruise and container cargo, and a retail and hospitality supply chain serving one of the densest concentrations of hotels and restaurants in the US.
Local LTL Miami volume is heavily international in character, with freight moving from customs-cleared warehouse zones near MIA through Doral and Medley into commercial accounts across Miami Beach, Brickell, Wynwood, and the Design District.
The San Francisco Bay Area is one of the most complex freight delivery environments in the country.
Dense urban cores in San Francisco, Oakland, and San Jose, a fragmented freeway network, bridge tolls and restrictions, and the most stringent commercial vehicle regulations in the US create a freight delivery challenge that national LTL carriers routinely underestimate.
Carbon footprint of LTL freight from Miami to San Francisco
A single pallet moving from Miami to San Francisco over 3,040 miles emits approximately 188 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 4,894 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 19 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).
