The West Coast continues to shine for dry van freight, with hubs like Los Angeles and Ontario leading the charge, while the Midwest and Southeast provide steady, high-demand lanes for carriers. Reefer freight is surging in the upper Midwest and Northwest, with hotspots like Idaho and the Dakotas showcasing strong activity, and the Southeast is rapidly gaining traction. Flatbed freight remains robust, particularly in the Midwest states like Indiana, Ohio, and Illinois, with additional momentum building in the Southeast for construction and industrial loads. Overall, carriers are poised to capitalize on tight capacity and elevated rates, with strategic positioning in key markets being the cornerstone for success.
