Survey: freight carriers had to work harder in 2023 to stay profitable
Carriers drove an additional 3,000 miles on average, and handled two more loads each month, Truckstop says
The survey of more than 2,000 respondents showed that carriers have experienced a significant increase in their workload in the past year, driving an additional 3,000 miles on average, handling two more loads each month, and absorbing the costs for 17% of their miles as unpaid “deadhead” travel.
