Happy Wednesday, y’all, and welcome to your mid-week edition of “Where’s the Freight?,” Trucker Tools’ free freight market report for carriers and drivers. In this and every edition of “Where’s the Freight?” you’ll discover where demand and rates for flatbed, reefer, power only and dry van truckload capacity will be highest and lowest over the next five to seven day period.
In the coming
week, several reefer markets are expected to see a decline in demand and
rates, including Flagstaff, Ariz., Pittsburgh and Billings, Mont. On the
flipside, demand for reefer capacity will remain strong this week to/from
Tucson, Ariz. If you run dry van, you’ll want to avoid loads inbound to and
outbound from Calgary, Alberta, over the next week, as demand there will be
extremely low. Once again, the Texarkana, Texas, flatbed market claims the
number one spot in today’s Top Five Hottest Markets list, while Philadelphia is
projected to see high demand for power only capacity in the coming week.
Read on to find
out where else demand and rates will be highest and lowest this week in this
Wednesday edition of Trucker Tools’ “Where’s the Freight?”
