Navigating Rising Costs in the Trucking Industry
Year over year, the cost of doing business in the trucking industry steadily outpaces national inflation.
According to the American Transportation Research Institute’s (ATRI) recently released annual report, costs for motor carriers in the for-hire trucking industry increased by 7.7 percent over the previous year. The costs for private fleets rose 7.9 percent, according to the average cost per mile tracked by the National Private Trucking Council (NPTC). This is more than three times the average U.S. inflation of 2.4 percent over the same time period.
