Estimated emissions

Enter a lane and weight, then calculate to see estimated CO₂e.

Methodology: great-circle distance between postal-area centroids × 1.2 road-circuity factor; emissions at 161.8 g CO₂e per ton-mile for dry van (EPA GHG Emission Factors Hub figure for medium- and heavy-duty truck freight) with a +20% uplift for reefer refrigeration fuel. Estimates for planning and comparison only — actual emissions depend on route, equipment, load factor, and fuel.
