Why ship West Coast orders from a West Coast warehouse?
Carriers price and time ground parcels by zone, and the zone depends on distance. An East Coast warehouse puts every West Coast order in the farthest zone.
| Destination | Nearest West Coast hub | From an East Coast warehouse |
|---|---|---|
| Los Angeles and Orange County | Los Angeles: zone 2 (under 150 miles) | Zone 8 |
| Las Vegas | Las Vegas: zone 2 (under 150 miles) | Zone 8 |
| Phoenix, AZ | Las Vegas: zone 3 (about 260 miles) | Zone 8 |
| San Francisco Bay Area | Los Angeles: zone 4 (about 350 miles) | Zone 8 |
| Portland, OR | Las Vegas or Los Angeles: zone 5 (about 760 to 830 miles) | Zone 8 |
| Seattle, WA | Las Vegas or Los Angeles: zone 5 (about 870 to 960 miles) | Zone 8 |
Distances are straight-line and zones follow the standard UPS and FedEx Ground distance bands; check your carrier's zone chart for exact ZIP codes. Brands with customers on both coasts can split stock with an East Coast 3PL hub.
