📌 Four Factors that attributes to Full Truck Load Freight Rates
🔸 Distance
The further your cargo travels, the more expensive your freight rates will be. Also, keep in mind that if you choose to transport your cargo outside a carrier’s service area, you might incur additional fees, thus raising your rates.
🔸 Fuel Costs
The trucks can handle these loads, but they come at a fuel cost that you should always consider for every shipment. Moreover, diesel fuel costs can go up and down throughout the year, so keep an eye on them before shipments so that you know what kind of cost to expect.
🔸 Capacity
Like any other business, the transportation industry runs on the supply and demand generated by the economy. If there are not enough truck drivers to meet the demand, you can expect freight rates to rise.
🔸 Transit Times
When you need to transport your freight quickly, you rely on expedited freight carriers to do the job. However, expedited services cost more than other options that transport your freight at a slower pace. The faster the transportation service, the higher the rate.
