Performance
Every load we move is logged. These are the monthly numbers behind it, on-time delivery, miles run, and trucks planned, going back two years.
The full record
On-time delivery against miles and trucks planned, every month for two years. Switch the range, or click a metric in the key to isolate it.
Monthly Perspective
Rates cooled off the summer peak, and that pullback is going to fool people.
Spot pricing has softened for a few weeks, the usual summer lull at work. Read it as the tight market breaking and you will get caught. This is a dip on a floor that reset higher, not a road back to the cheap years. Pricing still runs well above where it sat last year.
Manufacturing is carrying it. The factory gauge just hit its highest mark in about four years, growing seven months straight, with output and hiring both up. Real freight to move, the kind that comes from more building and making. The data center and reshoring wave keeps the work coming on top of it.
Diesel snapped back. After a long stretch of relief it reversed hard late in July on trouble overseas, and it sits high again. Treat fuel as a live cost. The break is over.
Capacity stays thin and keeps thinning. Fewer trucks running, fewer drivers cleared to move them, more carriers folding, more rules pushing drivers off the road. The cost to run a truck hit a record last year and climbs faster than rates. Trucks are not flooding back.
For shippers, do not misread the dip. Lock in the carriers you trust before peak season shuts the window, because the floor is not dropping.
For carriers, the market you waited four years for is holding. Costs are chasing you hard, so hold your line.
