Where Owner-Operators Should be Hauling Freight Right Now
Where is the best lane to be hauling freight right now?
According to the Q1, 2021 U.S. Bank Freight Index Report, the best place to be an owner-operator is in the West. Year-over-year shipments are only up 2%, but rates are up 23%.
Why is this occurring?
There is not enough contract carrier capacity, so loads are going to Brokers.
Moral of the story is, if you use Brokers, “Go West young man.”
