Dallas tender rejections now exceed 25%

Import shipments into Los Angeles and contacted truckload tenders out of Los Angeles are both surging, which is soaking up trucking capacity and tightening the Dallas market. Over the past week, the outbound tender rejection rate in Dallas jumped higher from 21.5% to 25.9% yesterday. 

We believe West Coast import strength and generally elevated truckload demand will continue, that trucking capacity shows no signs of loosening, and that rates will continue to move higher. Last week, average Truckstop.com spot rates were flat after a softer volume and looser capacity environment, but we expect those rates to continue trending positively now that markets are tightening again.

Expect another round of higher tender rejections and higher rates out of Atlanta and Chicago in the coming weeks if Los Angeles and Dallas maintain their momentum. There’s a finite amount of trucking capacity, and  when it shifts to a specific region to cover a surplus of freight, pockets of tightness develop elsewhere.

Absent an economic shock and assuming an appropriate level of economic stimulus and relief from the U.S. Congress, we believe that trucking markets are currently in a fundamental inflationary cycle that could take a year to play out. It will take that long for new capacity to enter the market, be efficiently deployed into the market, and bring spot rates back down.
