It is often priced as a backhaul-friendly regional move, so carriers may accept it at tighter margins if they can reload near Ashburn or along the I-75 corridor afterward.

Yes — mark the pickup window as "ASAP" or "same-day" in the quote form. Same-day pickups typically require a 2-4 hour rate premium (164 mi is roughly a 1-day run so drivers need to reposition), and we'll surface carriers with equipment already in the Jacksonville area first.
