Picking Up In
Phoenix, AZ
Phoenix is our home base, and the West Valley around it has become one of the fastest-growing distribution markets in the country. I-10 runs straight west to the Southern California ports and east toward Tucson and El Paso, while I-17 is the only practical route north to Flagstaff and the mountain west.
Phoenix is a consumption market that has turned into a distribution market. The Loop 303 corridor through Goodyear and Buckeye has absorbed enormous warehouse square footage in the last decade, most of it serving Southern California overflow — companies that want West Coast reach without Inland Empire rents.
Delivering In
Houston, TX
Houston is a port and petrochemical market before it is a retail one. Port Houston runs along the Ship Channel, and the industrial corridor beside it holds one of the densest concentrations of chemical and energy freight in the world.
A lot of freight here is project cargo, oversized equipment and industrial supply rather than palletized consumer goods — which means flatbed and specialised demand runs higher than in a comparable metro. Resin and plastics moving out of the Ship Channel are a huge dry van and bulk category.

How We Run It
- 1I-10 East the entire way
- 2I-10 through San Antonio into Houston
Straight I-10 the whole distance, which sounds simple and mostly is — the complication is the Houston end, where Ship Channel industrial traffic and the Beltway can add an hour that does not appear on any routing estimate.

Backhaul reality
Houston generates heavy outbound resin and industrial freight, so westbound reloads are commonly available. Petrochemical volume makes this one of the more balanced long lanes we run.
Season & weather
Hurricane season between June and November genuinely disrupts the Houston end. Freight with a hard delivery date in that window should carry slack.
Capacity Available
