Despite higher volumes, spot rates stall as capacity loosens

National Spot Rates: Van, Flatbed, Reefer
Flatbed volumes reverse 10-week slide

July 12 – 18 – Unlike May’s Roadcheck Week when capacity tightened rapidly, capacity loosened during last week’s Driver Safety Week ,with 18% more truck posts compared to the prior week. Last week’s surge in equipment posts overshadowed higher load posts, driving down the load-to-truck ratio for all equipment types.

Spot rates surge in the lead-up to July 4th celebrations

National Spot Rates: Van, Flatbed, Reefer
Tight truckload capacity leads to record highs

June 28 – July 4 – What goes up must come down at some stage, and with spot rates cresting the 2021 halfway mark at all-time highs, the market is bracing itself for a possible post-July 4 crash in spot rates. Except for 2020, rates typically fall immediately after Independence Day and summer vacation season begins in earnest. There are signs that drivers are coming back to the industry after 24,500 new transportation jobs were added in June, but capacity is still tight.
