Most trucks run I-15 and I-40 east through Arizona, New Mexico, Texas and Oklahoma, then I-44 and I-55 to Chicago.
At about 2,000 miles, a solo driver usually needs four days. Team drivers can cut that to about two days for time-sensitive freight, at a higher rate.
This is a major reefer lane for California produce heading to the Midwest. Desert heat in summer and snow on I-40 near Flagstaff in winter both affect planning.
Common freight on this lane: fresh produce, imported consumer goods from the Southern California ports, and food and beverage.
Reefer and dry van carry most of the freight. Flatbed moves machinery and building materials but is less common on this lane. Step deck, Conestoga and LTL are available on request.
