Iowa is a primarily agricultural state with prairie lands and rolling hills. Severe weather and cold winters do not substantially impact freight trucking in the state, and Iowa freight shipping rates are extremely affordable. The state also borders the Mississippi River, the Missouri River, and the Big Sioux River, allowing for plenty of Iowa freight to move by water. Because Iowa produces a high volume of goods, freight shipping is usually very inexpensive. Plenty of traffic by road, rail, air, and water means that LTL freight can travel for very low prices. Iowa has many different industries and freight shipping in, out, and through the state is very busy.

Cost to Ship Freight to Iowa
The time of year and what part of the country a shipment is picking up in will affect the cost of shipping to Iowa. Part of a freight rate is the linehaul, and the farther a shipment has to travel, the more fuel is used, and the more expensive the trip will be for the carrier.
Among other factors affecting freight cost will be the item’s size, weight, density, and commodity being shipped. Certain commodities are given a higher freight class which correlates to a higher price to ship.
Freight shipping accessorials will factor into the pricing. Some examples include lift gate service, residential pick-up/deliveries, and limited access locations.
