Lanes and service area.
Home is Spartanburg, where I-85 and I-26 cross, and that is where the density is. Beyond it we hold two long lanes on a schedule: the Carolinas to Dallas and Houston three to four times a week, and the Carolinas to Minneapolis twice a week. Anything off them is quoted case by case.
Illustrative photography — not Prime Trans equipment.Home base is the Upstate of South Carolina, where I-85 and I-26 cross, so the Carolinas are day-trip work. Beyond that we hold two lanes on a schedule and run them whether or not you tender.
Carolinas to Texas
Southbound and northbound are both sold, so the return leg is capacity you can buy rather than an empty we eat.

Two or more loads a week on one origin and destination is a lane. It gets assigned trucks, a backup unit, a twelve-month rate with a fuel-surcharge table and a quarterly review — the same terms as the two above.
