The route
The truck takes I-95 south to Petersburg, where I-85 begins, then follows I-85 southwest through Durham, Greensboro, Charlotte, Spartanburg, and Greenville into Georgia. It is a busy freight corridor, which helps keep this route regular.
Seasonal notes
Spring and fall are the best riding seasons in Georgia and the busiest shipping times on this lane. Summer moves are common too. Atlanta summers are hot and humid with afternoon storms, another reason riders prefer enclosed transport.
Arriving in Atlanta
Atlanta deliveries spread from in-town neighborhoods such as Midtown, Decatur, and East Atlanta to suburbs like Marietta, Alpharetta, and Peachtree City. The I-285 Perimeter connects most of them. North Georgia mountain roads around Dahlonega and Helen are a short ride from the northern suburbs.
