Because I usually place some larger orders ahead of time, and then add substantially to my order when the fish truck is at my pond, my guy gives me a token delivery fee of $50 to $100 or so.
My guy delivers as far as into Ohio, WV, NY, NJ, and even trout to CT I think. He is not raising all of these fish though, so sometimes he is simply a middle man between the actual hatchery and end user. Therefore, he'll drive to different state to pick-up fish, and then deliver along the way. The HSB that I got were from North Carolina. The trout were from a hatchery near Harrisburg.

But the truck drives right up to my pond. I couldn't transport some of the amounts of fish I've ordered myself.

Sounds like you've got a good source close by.
