Fireside Chat: Alternative Options for Drivers Feeling the Rate Squeeze

from FreightWaves LIVE: An Events Podcast · host FreightWaves

FreightWaves CTO Daniel Pickett and uShip CEO Kris Lamb discuss how some drivers are dealing with the simultaneous pressures from record prices for Diesel and Class 8 equipment, as well as a recent decline in spot rates. Rather than seek shelter by leasing onto large carriers, many OTR drivers are shifting their business to focus on customer direct freight and getting closer to both shipper and consignee.
