Local picture
What moves through Champaign.
Agricultural processing here follows a hard seasonal curve, and booking autumn volume matters more than in most markets.
Champaign sits in Champaign County, served by I-57, I-72 and I-74. The local freight base is agricultural research, food processing, higher education, and that mix is what determines which pallet specification actually makes sense here rather than which one is cheapest on paper.
Champaign is served on scheduled contract freight from Columbus, roughly 355 miles away. That works for full trailer loads and program volume; for a few hundred units, a local yard will beat us and we will say so.
