Arizona

Shouldn’t notice volatility until produce volumes move to Salinas. Consistent availability this week.

California (Northern)

Product is starting to ship and capacity is available. Currently a quality market to move freight. Central California is moderately tighter.

California (Southern)

Substantial shift shouldn’t occur until Yuma dries up and Northern California picks up. Similar conditions to Central California, moderately tight.

Eastern United States

No huge shifts. East coast port volumes are keeping rates up in New Jersey and Philadelphia. Pennsylvania is stable but will start improving in Q2. The northeast is slowly recuperating.

Georgia

Florida will become more difficult the further south you go. Georgia remains tight in Atlanta and Savannah areas.

Florida (Northern)

Florida will become more difficult the further south you go. Georgia remains tight in Atlanta and Savannah areas.

Florida (Southern)

Limited market persists. Carriers will take advantage of rising freight costs. This will continue week to week.

Idaho

Winter weather advisory in Wyoming may cause delays early in the week. Outside of that rates are fair.

Midwest

Winter storm watch in Northern Minnesota and Northern Wisconsin Tuesday and Wednesday. Capacity will scatter in those areas.

Volumes will decline throughout April. Area will become more favorable as carriers move east.

North Carolina has improved in the Charlotte area. Currently stable conditions across both regions.
