Tank & Refrigeration Trucking in the US

Going the distance

The market has endured a rocky road over the past five years. As the country sank into recession, manufacturing, consumer spending and construction all contracted, and with them demand for freight transportation. The coming years will be a period of growth for the market, as the improving economy causes freight volumes to jump. Climbing fuel costs will increase revenue from fuel surcharges. However, a persistent shortage of labor will force operators to raise drivers' wages and improve their work environment.
