Seasonal Tips for This Route

Carriers usually run I-70 east through St. Louis, Indianapolis and Columbus, then cross Pennsylvania toward I-84 or I-90 into Massachusetts.

If you are leaving Fort Leavenworth or Whiteman Air Force Base, pickup is outside the city. Give dispatch the exact address so the quote reflects the real mileage.

At about 1,400 miles, this lane can usually be driven in four to five days once the car is loaded. Booking a week or two ahead keeps you on the standard rate.
