Why metro pickups need local planning

The Twin Cities mix dense urban blocks, cul-de-sac suburbs and lake roads with weight limits. Each one changes where a full-size carrier can safely stop. We look at your street before dispatch, not on pickup morning.

Southbound demand climbs through October and peaks in November. Metro households have an advantage: I-35 and I-94 put the Twin Cities on regular carrier paths, which helps when we are matching your dates to a truck heading toward Florida.
