The Fort Worth to Chicago lane.
We go north on I-35, east on I-44 and north again on I-55 into Chicago. Downtown high-rises need a COI and a booked freight elevator, while greystones and two-flats often mean a rear alley approach that limits truck length.
Typical corridor: I-35 North to Oklahoma City, I-44 East to St. Louis, then I-55 North into Chicago
What moves the price on this lane.
- Alley access and rear-loading two-flats determine crew size and truck choice.
- Downtown buildings require COIs, dock times and elevator reservations.
- Winter weather on I-55 can add a day between November and March.
- Illinois tolls and Chicago parking enforcement on delivery day.
