ZONE 6 · 4-5 DAY GROUND · THE PORT CITY

Every throw is counted first.

Mobile threw America's first Mardi Gras, and every mystic society still counts its throws onto the float before roll-off — nothing gets added mid-parade. That's how we quote. One Zone 6 rate covers 4-5-day ground from Paramount, CA down I-10 to Midtown, Spring Hill, and the whole Gulf Coast metro — every fee on the manifest up front, $0 hidden surcharges.

THE PORT CITY

Jets, warships, and the oldest carnival in America

Mobile assembles Airbus jets at Brookley, builds Navy ships on the downtown waterfront, and moves a top-10 port's worth of cargo — then throws a two-month parade. All of it buys on schedule, one lane from Paramount.

THE AEROPLEX

Airbus builds jets in Mobile

The A320 final assembly line at Brookley Aeroplex anchors a Gulf Coast aerospace economy that buys on routing guides and dock appointments. We fulfill B2B to Airbus-corridor suppliers and the lifestyle brands serving the workforce behind it.

THE WATERFRONT

A top-10 port and a Navy yard

The Port of Mobile moves steel, chemicals, and containers by the tens of millions of tons, while Austal USA builds Navy ships downtown. We fulfill industrial worker-supply B2B and hand off export freight to your Mobile-area forwarder for ocean or rail.

FBA ROUTING

MOB1 in town, BHM and PNS behind it

Amazon serves the central Gulf Coast from Mobile itself, with Birmingham and Pensacola handling overflow. We prep FNSKU, poly-bag, and split-route your FBA inventory into every FC on the plan — SPN certified, from the same Paramount dock.

THE THROW ROOM

Three throws off the float

THROW 01

Zone 6, straight down I-10

Mobile sits 2,000 miles from Paramount on one interstate, and the math still wins: $2.50 pick-and-pack plus Zone 6 ground beats Gulf-regional 3PL minimums with volume commitments attached. Daphne and Spanish Fort ship at the same rate as Midtown.

THROW 02

Carnival is a loadout problem

Mobile's Mardi Gras runs January into February and moves costume, promo, and food volume like nothing else on the Gulf calendar. We stage parade-season inventory ahead of Twelfth Night and ramp pick-pack capacity so the spike ships on schedule.

THROW 03

Inventory outside the cone

Mobile sits in an active hurricane corridor from June through November. Keeping stock in California keeps it out of the cone — we monitor carrier alerts, notify your customers proactively, and hold buffer inventory that a storm can't touch.
