Show Notes
Today, a reefer expert is back, Cody Koehler of A & Z Trucking, to dive into the volatility currently hitting the reefer freight market!
Are you prepared for the upcoming peak produce and floral seasons in Florida?
We break down the Tampa to Cleveland lane, analyzing why we're seeing a significant year-over-year rate increase and how political factors and weather events are tightening capacity across the country.
Cody shares his insights on freight lane analysis, the importance of honoring quoted rates to maintain shipper trust, and why proactive communication is your best tool when capacity gets tight.
Whether you're navigating spot market rates or managing long-term contracts, we discuss the best practices for building a resilient book of business in an unpredictable environment!
