The season migrates north with the calendar. Now that the heavy season in the SE is done we enter into a relatively slow period. You can still get good money out of the valley in CA, but not like a month ago and good luck getting out there. If you're running regional, your best bets are TN, MO, and AR right now.

The USDA issues a produce truck rate report by region every week.

If you are in Ca. I would try to book a frozen load that has only one pickup and one dropoff or two. Those loads are paying better than produce. Let everybody else chase the hassling produce loads while the actual reefer loads are free of competition. :lol: At least that is the way it seems to be this week.
