Common problems Indiana carriers face

Drawn from carriers running Indiana freight day-to-day.

Indianapolis is everyone's crossroads

Most of the US is one day's drive from Indianapolis. The flip side: every carrier wants to position trucks here, which makes every lane contested.

Auto-parts JIT discipline is non-negotiable

Fort Wayne and South Bend manufacturers run on tight tender windows. Late by 30 minutes can mean off the broker's list.

Amazon fulfillment volume distorts dry van rates

Plainfield Amazon hubs absorb significant dry van capacity. Rates on traditional dry van lanes have to compete with stable Amazon contract pay.
