Dry van hauls are on fire out West, with California leading the charge—Los Angeles and Ontario are the real moneymakers right now. Midwest and Southwest lanes are paying solid too, so keep those rigs rolling. Reefer drivers, your bread and butter is up in the upper Midwest and Northwest, with hot markets like Twin Falls, ID, Green River, WY, and Fargo, ND—those reefer rates are juicy! Flatbed haulers, your sweet spots are spread out, with steady freight coming out of the Midwest, especially Louisville and Lexington, KY, and the South Atlantic coast near North Charleston, SC.
