Where’s the Freight? Texarkana, Cape Girardeau, Tucson and Jonesboro Top Freight Markets for Fleets and Owner Ops Over Next Week
Share it:
Welcome to your mid-week edition of “Where’s the Freight?,” Trucker Tools’ free freight forecast for fleets and drivers. Over the next five to seven day period, you can expect Texarkana, Texas, to be a strong market for both flatbed and reefer freight. In fact, the Texarkana, Texas, flatbed market claims the number spot in today’s Top Five Hottest Markets list. In the coming week, one region of North Dakota is projected to see declining demand (and rates) for both flatbed and reefer freight, while the Gary, Ind., dry van market should be heating up later this week. If you run power only loads, you’ll want to prioritize runs to/from Cape Girardeau, Mo., and Portland, Ore., this week, as demand is expected to be high and/or increasing in both areas.
