LTL freight from San Francisco to Atlanta

San Francisco to Atlanta is served by 11 carriers in the Warp network.

Traditional carrier rates on this lane range from $516 to $878 per pallet with transit times of 3 to 9 days.

Warp prices this lane at $518 per pallet with 7-day transit through the Los Angeles cross-dock facility.

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.

Atlanta is the distribution capital of the Southeast.

I-75, I-85, I-20, and I-285 converge here, and the metro houses distribution centers for dozens of national retailers, food chains, and consumer goods companies.

Carbon footprint of LTL freight from San Francisco to Atlanta

A single pallet moving from San Francisco to Atlanta over 2,473 miles emits approximately 153 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 3,982 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 15 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).
