How freight moves in Arizona
Freight in Arizona runs on I-8, I-10, I-17, I-19 and I-40. Its crossings at Nogales (Mariposa), San Luis and Douglas connect it to Mexico. The state's economy leans on copper and mining, aerospace and defense, semiconductors and electronics and winter produce and agriculture, and that is most of what moves on its roads.
Rules of the road
What shapes a move in Arizona
- Seasonal conditions
Arizona's monsoon season runs from June 15 to September 30 and brings sudden dust storms, heavy downpours and flash flooding that can cut visibility and close desert highways.
Summer temperatures in the low desert around Phoenix and Yuma regularly exceed 100 degrees Fahrenheit, while winter snow can slow or close I-40 and I-17 near Flagstaff.
Rules change. The specialist on your move checks the current ones for your exact route before anything is booked.
