Trucking and Freight Market May 23 2024: Things Are Looking Up This Week
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 май 2024
- Second week in a row we are seeing some positive signs in the freight market. It seems like the DOT Inspection week had a longer lasting effect than I had initially thought, and now we are waiting for trucking to turn for the better as we enter the produce season.

I noticed more brokers calling me this week to get their load's covered
I love to watch your weekly podcasts as it is very detailed, I am sure that you spend a lot of time on preparing this information and more people should appreciate and put thumbs up.
😎👍💯
Fuel prices always go down for holidays. They’ll go back up. Uncross your fingers. Unless you want to keep them crossed. You’re the boss of yourself.
Parked my truck for about 45 days. Hope this trend continues and I’ll get rolling again
Is it easy enough to turn the insurance off and on?
Get in touch with us , we will keep you rolling with same rates
@@davidowen9671yes i done it 2 months ago , just have ur agent put it under parked…..1st month it was $200 and this month is free and ur authority will stay active.
@@davidowen9671 can u do that I heard if u cancel insurance ur dot and mc become inactive
@avitia38super Excellent point. Obviously, the "parker" would need to look into this.
rates still garbage, nothing to cheer about…..check DAT board and see plenty of flatbed loads “ trending” for $1.25/ mile ( one twenty five). Same rates paid in 1978 when fuel was 50 cents a gallon.Truck stops are packed, junk trucks running wild being affraid of “ no missing out” in hypothetical “ rebound”.Most of the “ truckers” are wearing flip flops and translating using the phone when engaged in conversation at the fuel desk.Being so new in the business you don’t really know what “ good trucking business” is.Let me give you just a quick example-16 years ago, after running 2 ( two) roundrips from CA to NY produce market -you can buy a brand sparking new Honda Civic after extracting all the expenses. 20 days work and you get yorself a brand new car. Or run strady for about 1 year and you get yourself a brand new house, paid in cash.Truckers changing ALL 18 tires one time, cash price. Not used and recaps like today. Everybody was eating lunch and dinner at restaurant. Too hot or to cold outside and annoyed to idke the truck-get yourself a nice motel room evry weekend on the road.Get a load to Las Vegas? Spent 2-3 days there staying in a nice hotel and enjoying the nightlife.Have 4 kids going to college? No problem, plenty of funding for all of them, in the same time.Need to change the furniture and setting for the entire house? Easy task, go on the road for 2 ( two) wekks and everything smells new in the house.And so on and on…. And you think the garbage we live today is almost good?And we see “ small improvements”?No, this is minimum wage slave work in the hope of “ getting rich overnight”. That ship sailed long ago. What is left is a Mirage. Embraced, mostly, by the new third world wannabe “ owner operators” who can’t find their way without GOS or Google translate.As I said before, America is rapidly accelerating into a “ Canada style” trucking-one in which the entire driving force consist of poor educated people coming from third world countries.It’s over, this is just the agony…
Unfortunately, I’m inclined to agree with everything you just wrote…
Society as a whole, seems to be going to hell in a hand basket !
Hopefully you got an exit plan. Hope all my brothers don't sit and suffer in a damn truck for the next few years of their lives. Definitely ain't worth it
Damn
Ya nailed it. I look on the load boards for flatbed loads and some of these brokers or shippers want you to pay them to haul it for them. Everything is getting out of hand!!
Bro you hit the nail on the head I've been in trucking for 25 years this is the worst and you right about it looking like a third world country out there everybody and there mother trying to be a truck driver now I'm going back to school to be a diesel mechanic trucking is finished as far as the driver/ owner operator is concerned
Everyone, Thank God, and give him all the glory, for everyone, and everything ! And thank you too, Miranda ! You have a amazing weekend too !
May God bless you for interjecting this thought into the conversation.
I believe , it doesn’t matter how high rejections grow, truckers are going to haul for what brokers want to pay .
I use DAT to find loads of, but I don’t pay attention to the rates . I run if I get my rate . I’m the one doing the job , it is not the broker .
Miranda’s trucking updates are always top notch, thorough, informative and helpful to those trying to survive in the spot rate market. I may no longer own a truck (as I coast towards retirement) but I always click on new videos from her as soon as I have time to do so. She’s a sweet, genuine person trying to help others .
Thank you for the update Miranda!
Great data analysis.Thanks for the info
Hello good to see you - well we looking forward for more rate increase - thank you for keep us updated! 😊
I look forward to these updates, thank you! ❤
Thank you for the wonderful Thorough weekly Analysis!
Appreciate the work you put in, and as an owner operator it helps tremendously.
I enjoyed the income video, it was like some of your old school videos sharing your numbers. I'd love to see more sometime.
I have been sitting in Texas Huston for 3 data no freaking loads unless you want pennies loads
Me too, San Antonio, TX. I'm not going to stay out for the holiday weekend over crappie rates. That's depressing. Barbecue time!😀
Thank you Miranda😊
Great update video!
Don't know if it's going to last, but I agree certainly worth celebrating😃
Thank you 🎉
We made it to the next produce season. Another year another fight
Great video, Miranda. 😊
It would be nice to see the Canadian data as well.
great work
Very Informative as usual.
Awesome vid as always! Does the RPM include fuel surcharge?
Thanks for bringing to us your analysis! Blessings!
Thank you.
Can someone explain the rejection part to me please? Thanks
Thanks teach
Great content, thanks. I'm wondering if you could do a video comparing truckstop to DAT. I personally like Truckstop but have both. Not so much comparing the load boards, but whats on them and what they say about the market. Do they mirror each other our do they say two different things about capacity and volumes
Summer time is coming and rates will go up. 🤙
It might be interesting to ask driver what they named their company and mention one at end of video. It may take some thought to drem up a name for llc so you may get some interesting response??
Looking at patterns I see where the most people moved to are Texas and Florida. This also where people with money or alot of consumers and better state economy. So basically the two states with the best economy and cost of living are Texas number one and Florida number 2 but they're basically neck n neck
Atlanta GA area is best now a days for DV.
idk if you heard of HF Transit but they've been getting me really good loads for my reefer
Best trucking channel, always good info.
nice
LEEEETTTSSSGOOOOO THANK U!!!!
Get ready this slow season will be like no other
I think inspection week was nothing but hot air or I was lucky because it seemed like an ordinary week to me.
Question? Is there any idea how many Lease OO are leaving the market as they would not be under their own MC#
Unfortunately I haven’t found that data
@@TruckingMadeSuccessful Would love to know that so we could truly know how many trucks are coming off the road!! Thanks for the reply!
Thank you beautiful
Pulling containers from chicago I've seen volumes climb a lot. Since the beginning of May we've been hustling. Hope it stays that way for a few months.
Also just a friendly reminder that you're looking lovely as always, and hope you have a great memorial day weekend.
Your from CHICAGO to?

I do not understand why you would deadhead so far? Can't you find another load nearby for an immediate backhaul? It is important to create efficiencies in your lanes. Deadhead can also be dangerous because an unloaded truck weighs about half as much as a loaded one. When these trucks are not weighed down by a load, they can become HAZARDOUS in inclement weather. So Deadhead is not just costly but also dangerous.
And that is the most important factor in considering the deadhead miles before going. The weather. An experienced Dispatcher considers all potential problems before dispatching. Non experienced Dispatchers only considering their own percentage/pay; who will book anything just to get a truck rolling. There's plenty of Dispatchers out there who do not have a clue of a single trucks expenses nor fully understand safety issues.. Hence, "Forced dispathing"... Know before you go!
What do you mean by rejection and spot markets
Is it me, or are things getting better in small increments?😮🎉
After dot week effect. Next monday is a labor day. I think it will drop back next week.
But I don’t mind to be wrong 😅
@@sardoryunusov Memorial Day not Labor Day
It is not looking good In WA.there was a load from WA to KS.1850 miles three pick up wit app. And pays 1600.I said I m not going take this load and someone going take this load.
Somalis turbans or Bangladeshi..😊😊😊
5 units left uncovered this weekend...
Holiday weekends are always tough because everyone is panicking
La&lb port in California more terrible than last week 😢😢😢
I agree, don’t take cheap freight but what do us carriers suppose to do just sit and make nothing? 9/10 if I bid correct price it will not go through because of others cheap carriers. I think now it’s just a waiting game. Not everyone has the luxury to dip into their savings. I have emergency savings but I refuse to dip into that.
WOW CNBC said that Happy Days are here again too. Woohoo 😂
Hi Miranda, I'm bothering you about something. I saw in your previous video about B1 visa type. I am currently 23 years old from Uzbekistan. If I get the type of B1 visa from the Uzbekistan embassy, can you help me change it to another type of visa after I go to America? or to live and work in such a way as to stay there? I am actually writing to you very depressed. I was been in USA 12 years ago. I can't really try other ways. I wanted to go legally, not through Mexico. It has become very difficult for me to live in the city there are many such other things where I live please if you can help me i will try to get b1 visa by queuing from embassy I await your reply? May G-d bless with your works! ❤
❤❤
👍🤞
What do you mean by rejection...I'm new here so I didn't get it
Rejection is when a contract carrier rejects their load, and it ends up on the spot market.
♥♥♥♥
Preciate your insights. Thanks!
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Why are you skipping Contract and Spot Rate Difference now adays
If you rely on spot market rates you will not survive. Go get direct shippers and you can get over $3 per mile minimum
Will they pay for a round trip too or one way im thinking of going that route but how much is too much per mike
Diesel prices going down. Must be election time.
Miranda❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
