Reefer truck shortages have emerged in Idaho and Washington, particularly affecting regions like Twin Falls and the Columbia River Basin, as reported by the U.S. Agriculture Department. This marks the first significant shortage in 2024, indicating a soft and oversupplied reefer market. The trucking industry faces ongoing overcapacity issues, with about 7,000 carrier authorities lost monthly. While shortages have also appeared in places like Florida and Chicago, there are signs of rate improvements, offering some hope to carriers amidst declining profits.
