    It's ok. Domestic or international? If your doing international your 85 miles from the Port of Oakland. If you do domestic containers. Your 45 mi from the rail yards of UP and BNSF. I've heard that containers from Oakland to Sacramento were getting $125 to $150 per can. Same with the rail yards. Swift, J.B. Hunt, Schenider, Hub Group and Greatwide pull out of rail yards. I know Knight pulls cans out of Oakland. They deliver to Fresno, Reno and No. Cal by the Oregon border. 90% do live loads.
