This week the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance's Road Check America has been taking place across the country. It's no surprise that some truckers find that this is a convenient week to schedule some vacation time which means that there are fewer trucks on the road. And that is why even in an environment where there has been plenty of capacity, we've seen certain areas where capacity has been tighter than usual. The Road Check America program helps remind us just how quickly the capacity situation can change.
Given that the trucking capacity can abruptly change, we have seen numerous articles that have been offering the same advice we have been giving you in these Two Minute Warnings:
TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THESE FAVORABLE MARKET CONDITIONS BY CONDUCTING A SOURCING EVENT SO YOU CAN LOCK IN FAVORABLE RATES FOR THE NEXT TWELVE MONTHS!
A good way to start is to benchmark your rates, and at TranzAct we can do that for you at no cost.
If you want to make sure that you can source capacity consistently throughout the year, then conducting a sourcing event is a must.
For any additional information about how you can conduct a great sourcing event, please give us a call at 630-833-0890 or send us an email. We're on your team, we're here to help, and we are passionate about seeing you be successful.
