Cold Freight, Hot Mess. ❄️🔥

Re**er freight is feeling the pressure. From California to the Carolinas, capacity is stretched thin all along the I-40 corridor...

What’s driving the crunch??

- High temps in the South are putting extra stress on cold-chain freight - especially produce, dairy, and frozen goods.

- Late-season harvests are peaking across Central California, Arizona, and parts of the Southeast, adding unexpected volume.

- Post-holiday freight from July 4th continues to ripple, compressing schedules and pushing more loads into an already tight market.

From California to the Carolinas, re**er capacity is tight along I-40 this week.

🔥Extreme heat in the South is pushing more temp-sensitive freight onto the market - from produce to perishables & requiring reliable cold-chain coverage.

🥕On top of that, a late-blooming produce season is extending harvest activity in major growing regions like Central California, Arizona, and parts of the Southeast.

Bottom line: Re**er is in high demand and short supply across the Southern U.S. Plan ahead, expect volatility, and lock in capacity early.
