A broker defends his industry

Steve Moss is the general manager of DTS Logistics in Montana. He's heard the fierce criticism being leveled by drivers against the 3PL industry as rates fall, with a great deal of blame being placed at the feet of the brokerage sector. Moss reached out to FreightWaves to spell out his case as to why he believes this criticism is unfair and we speak to him on Drilling Deep about the complaints and his views on them, based on 20 years in the business. We also look at what seems incredible: the price of diesel at the pump has been amazingly steady in the midst of an otherwise volatile market. Host John Kingston talks about the role inventories are playing in that stability.

Episode 24 of the Drilling Deep with John Kingston podcast, hosted by FreightWaves, titled "A broker defends his industry" was published on May 21, 2020 and runs 20 minutes.
