Van and refrigerated rates firmed as holiday demand built. Confirm receiving windows, capacity and the backup plan before tendering.


This week’s report brings DAT, Truckstop/FTR and EIA signals together for your next shipping decision.

WHAT IT MEANS FOR YOUR LANES


→ Confirm priority receiving windows before buying capacity.


→ Keep linehaul and fuel separate; EIA diesel eased while DAT van and reefer linehaul rose.


→ Compare like-for-like offers. Truckstop and DAT measure different market activity.

HOLIDAY SHIPPING STARTS WITH THE RECEIVER


Thanksgiving is November 26. Confirm each facility’s hours, last appointment and reopening plan before tendering the load.


→ Work backward from the accepted delivery window.

→ Name a backup contact and the person who can approve recovery costs.

→ For refrigerated freight, keep product instructions and exception ownership clear.
