The State of Truckload: Carriers continue to maintain a competitive advantage

While pandemic restrictions have loosened compared to a year ago, COVID-19 has not gone away entirely, and neither has the strength of today's truckload market.


While pandemic restrictions have loosened compared to a year ago, COVID-19 has not gone away entirely, and neither has the strength of today's truckload market.

Some of the key themes within the market include:

  • high levels of demand
  • driven by increased consumer spending and stimulus funding
  • elevated rates giving carriers the upper hand
  • ongoing capacity issues due largely to the seemingly endless driver shortage.

This webcast will address these key themes and others, including what may be in store for the remainder of this year and into 2022, things to watch on the regulatory front and Peak Season expectations, too.
