Freight Shipping from Melissa to Chicago

Maas Logistics runs Melissa to Chicago on our own trucks — roughly 970 miles and 2 days of transit for a solo driver operating inside federal hours-of-service limits. Standard equipment on this lane is reefer & dry van.

Freight that moves here: Packaged food, frozen protein, industrial goods, retail freight.

Seasonal notes: Midwest receivers hold tight appointment windows; winter weather adds transit risk December through February.

Every load on this lane is tracked on Samsara ELD with GPS position and hours-of-service-aware ETAs, and refrigerated shipments return temperature records with the proof of delivery. Because we are asset-based, the truck you are quoted is the truck that shows up — your freight is never re-brokered onto a load board.
