Load board activity picks back up following holiday-shortened week

Sept 14 – 20 – Spot market truckload rates are in their longest continuous rally in five years, as supply chain disruptions continue to push truckload shipments over to the spot market. Load-to-truck ratios did decline for vans and reefers for the second straight week, however.

Spot rates hit new highs heading into holiday

National Spot Rates: Van, Flatbed, Reefer

Prices keep climbing ahead of Labor Day weekend

Aug 31 – Sept 6 – The average linehaul rate for dry van freight set an all-time record high in August (all-in spot rates were higher in June 2018 due to higher fuel surcharges). That momentum continued last week, with shippers and freight brokers paying higher prices to move freight ahead of the Labor Day weekend.
