Episode description
The number of trucking jobs in the U.S. economy went up last month – and while that may seem like good news, there’s another side to the story. Also, dispatching services are becoming more common, and more truckers are using them. So are they a good idea, or not? Tom Crowley and Joe Biggs of OOIDA’s Business Services Department come on the show to discuss that – and whether now is a good time to get your own authority. And a decrease in load volume on DATs load board. We’ll get the latest on market conditions and what the forecast looks like leading up to Thanksgiving.
