https://lnkd.in/gkCjxmnb Don't fall for the hype! Yes, owning a semi-truck can be lucrative, but it's not as simple as some on social media may make it seem. Without proper experience or a CDL, it can be challenging to own and operate one. And even if you're not planning to drive it yourself, you'll need to compensate someone who can. Let's also not forget that being a truck driver is a tough and sometimes dangerous job that not everyone is cut out for. So, if you're serious about being a truck owner, take the necessary steps to gain the experience and knowledge needed to succeed. Trucking is not a game. #logistics #trucking #freight #freightbroker #shipping #transportation #supplychain #truckload #LTL #CDL

We’re seeing “signs of life” in the trucking industry after one of the “deepest” downturns in history. But, concerning challenges persist. We’re all familiar with the trajectory at this point: During the pandemic, when people were stuck at home, online orders soared, a boon for the trucking space. But in 2022, due to inflation, that consumer demand came crashing, leading to a freight recession. While experts anticipate an imminent recovery, these companies are facing big issues, one of the most concerning being underutilization of assets. The solution — in my opinion — lies in reimagining fleet strategies. Fleets are expensive to operate and maintain, which is why underutilization is such a problem. That’s why the trucking space needs to take a page out of the passenger vehicle space. Thanks to rideshare companies, like Uber and Lyft, and personal car rental companies, like Turo, people no longer have to let their cars sit idle or don’t need to own a car at all. What if we applied that same framework to fleets? That’s exactly what we’re working to do at ParkMyFleet’s hubs. We house, service and maintain fleets. When a company needs one or 15 trucks, they’re available and ready to deploy. The company only pays for their vehicles when they need them. It’s smart, efficient and economical. The question remains though, can one of the oldest, most static industries consider trying something new? Let’s hope so. https://lnkd.in/eT6cKxvU #trucking #freightrecession #underutilization #truckingindustry #deliveries #consumerdemand #shipping #truckershipping #freights

Polemic article of SONAR about the myth of the perpetual Truck Driver Shortage in USA 🚚📉 📊 Numbers Don't Lie Since July 2019, the number of trucking carriers has surged by 45%. Truckload demand is up only 11% during the same period. 🎯 Capacity Correction Underway The industry is currently experiencing a capacity correction. The called "driver shortage" often stems from too much capacity chasing too little freight. 🛠️ Barriers to Entry? What Barriers? With minimal barriers to entry, it's becoming increasingly easy to start a trucking company. Independent operators are constantly entering the market, negating the need for recruitment and retention programs. 📚 The article suggests that the American Trucking Associations which primarily represents midsize and large trucking fleets, often propels this narrative. They lobby for laws that fund employee driver training and recruitment programs while minimizing regulations that favor larger trucking fleets. The SONAR article offers a fresh perspective on the well discussed topic of driver shortages in the trucking industry. It becomes clear that the problem is far more nuanced than often reported. While large companies may be facing recruitment issues, the surge of independent operators is more than filling the gap. As we look ahead, we must ask: could this actually be a market correction rather than a shortage? And if so, how will this shape the future landscape of the trucking industry? It's an intriguing insight and raises important questions that I look forward to exploring further.
