How Much Does Freight Shipping in Tennessee Cost?
At the end of the day, the rate you pay for shipping freight depends entirely on your situation. Among them are the following:
- Demand and Supply: If the number of new drivers available is steadily declining – supply is low. As a result, prices are continuously higher than in previous years. Furthermore, having more items ready for shipment than vehicles available to transport them might cause prices to rise in terms of demand.
- Emergency Shipping: The level of urgency required to transport this last-minute shipment is prohibitively expensive. It's preferable to plan ahead of time for your shipments if possible.
- Distance Covered: In general, the longer your freight needs to travel, the more it will cost; nevertheless, make sure it has a better rate-per-mile (RPM).
- Poor Weather Conditions: When terrible weather conditions occur, shippers who need to get their shipment out the door have significantly fewer options. This usually results in price hikes.

It depends on the distance from the pick-up point to the delivery destination. Other cost-determining factors are freight weight, mode of transport, and shipping options. Use our free estimate tool, to generate your freight shipping cost.
Again, distance is a factor here but your freight mode and shipping options can also hasten or slow things down. LTL shipping may take longer than FTL shipping, and air freight will be faster than land freight. So it can take a single day or several days depending on the circumstances within which the freight carriers and logistics services are operating.
We determine your chargeable weight by using the gross weight or volumetric weight of your shipment, whichever is higher between the two.
Gross weight is the total weight of your shipment, including its packaging and pallets. Volumetric weight is obtained by dividing the volume (l x b x h) of your shipment by the density ratio of your shipping mode.
