Spot rates plateau after four weeks of gains

National Spot Rates: Van, Flatbed, Reefer

Dry van and reefer return to more seasonal patterns

Mar 8 – 14 – Three weeks after the devastating Polar Vortex weather event upended freight markets, a more normal pattern of activity emerged in dry van and reefer last week. Load posts dropped 23% and capacity eased slightly, with close to 10% more truck posts. Flatbed was quite the opposite though – volumes up 3% w/w and capacity tightened.
