Miami to Orlando Line Haul Freight, Run by a Dedicated Delivery Carrier Since 1977

Scheduled Line Haul Between Miami and Orlando

Line haul is the scheduled middle-mile leg between two metros, the freight rides a regular truck running a regular lane on a regular schedule. Comet runs Miami to Orlando line haul on the I-95 and Florida's Turnpike corridors, picking up in South Florida and delivering into Central Florida the next business day on most lanes. Faster than national LTL hub-and-spoke routing, cheaper than a dedicated truck for shipments that fit the schedule.

Call 786-321-0478 to put freight on the next Miami-Orlando line haul run.

When Miami-Orlando Line Haul Is the Right Move

Line haul fits Florida shippers in patterns like these:

  • Recurring B2B shipments between South Florida and Central Florida that don't need same-day timing.
  • E-commerce trans-load. Inbound freight to Orlando-area fulfillment centers from Miami-Dade and Broward distribution.
  • Retail replenishment. Pallet-level store replenishment from a Miami DC to Orlando-area locations.
  • Hospitality and theme-park supply. Furniture, equipment, and supply runs to Orlando hotels, resorts, and attractions.
  • Manufacturing transfers. Components and finished goods moving between a Miami plant and an Orlando facility.
  • Drayage handoff. Container freight pulled from PortMiami or Port Everglades and forwarded inland to Orlando (see our drayage service).

If you need same-day Miami to Orlando timing, look at hot shot delivery or expedited shipping instead. Dispatch will recommend the right service.

How Comet Runs the Miami-Orlando Line Haul

The line haul runs on a published schedule. Freight is picked up from your South Florida dock on the day of the run, consolidated at our facility, loaded onto a tractor-trailer running the I-95 or Turnpike corridor overnight, and delivered to the Orlando-area receiver the next business day. Pickup is included in the rate, delivery is included in the rate, and you talk to one dispatcher for the whole flow.

Because Comet runs the lane regularly, the per-pallet cost is closer to LTL pricing than dedicated, with faster transit and less handling than national LTL. The freight never goes through a third-party carrier hub, never gets cross-docked outside Florida, and never sits on a Memphis or Atlanta dock waiting for a connecting route.

Why Line Haul Costs Less Than a Dedicated Truck

A dedicated truck Miami to Orlando moves your freight and only your freight, on your timeline, for a flat dedicated rate. Line haul moves your freight alongside other Comet customers' freight on the same scheduled run, sharing the cost across multiple shippers. You give up some timing flexibility (the truck leaves when the truck leaves) in exchange for cost. For B2B shipments where the freight isn't time-critical and the volume doesn't fill a truck, the math works.

Equipment and Florida Corridors We Cover

  • Tractor-trailers for the Miami-Orlando line haul leg.
  • Box trucks and straight trucks for the pickup and delivery legs on either end.
  • Liftgate-equipped trucks for sites without dock access at pickup or delivery.
  • TWIC-certified drivers when the freight originates at PortMiami or Port Everglades.

The same line haul flow scales to other Florida lanes when freight justifies it, Miami-Tampa, Miami-Jacksonville, and Orlando-South Florida return runs. Pair line haul with our cross-docking, warehousing, or freight consolidation services where the freight profile fits.

Florida-Based Operations With Corridor Knowledge

The I-95 corridor and Florida's Turnpike change behavior daily based on weather routing, hurricane prep, construction zones, and event traffic. Comet has been running Florida freight since 1977 and our dispatchers know which lanes to take at which hours. Spring break, snowbird season, hurricane closures, and theme-park demand peaks all factor into the line haul schedule before a truck leaves the yard.
