The project aims to boost R+L Carriers’ operational capacity, streamline logistics, and support sustainable business practices, according to a release.

GOEDC has been working on this project with R+L for over 10 months and looks forward to working with them towards completing the project and beyond.” Local officials expect the strategic expansion to contribute to the local economy by providing high-paying job opportunities. “We are very excited to have R+L Carriers join our community,” said Owensboro Mayor Tom Watson. “They add another piece to the puzzle of economic development. With so much commerce delivered by truck, I am confident they will be an asset to our community.” Daviess County Judge-Executive Charlie Castlen similarly praised the development project. “R+L Carriers’ decision to locate in the MidAmerica Airpark, invest approximately $25 million in a new terminal, and bring in 63 new jobs is a huge win for our Owensboro-Daviess County community,” Castlen said. “This decision is proof of the high-quality workforce R+L Carriers knows our fellow citizens to be.” Jeff Haungs, Vice President of R+L Carriers, said the expansion aligns with R+L Trucking’s vision of delivering exceptional service through innovation and excellence. He also emphasized the company’s commitment to the community. “We are excited to collaborate with the City of Owensboro on new developments at MidAmerica Airpark,” Huangs said. “R+L Carriers is committed to investing in the community by creating jobs while delivering exceptional value and quality to our customers.” R+L Carriers is a family-owned global freight transportation and logistics company based in the U.S. Since 1965, it has offered a wide range of services, including LTL, truckload, expedited, and cross-border shipping.

In logistics, the cargo we transport today is a crucial component of a vast network. Your customer's freight ultimately serves their clients and, by extension, numerous others down the line. This connection is what makes logistics so impactful. It's not merely about meeting our immediate needs but about playing a vital role in a chain of service that extends far beyond our direct interactions. In essence, our work in logistics supports countless individuals and businesses, highlighting the significance of every shipment we manage. #Freight #Logistics #SupplyChian #Freight

Changes in Drayage Regulations 2024 FMC has just introduced a pivotal rule change affecting the shipping industry, particularly concerning demurrage and detention fees. Here's what you need to know: Relief for Drayage Truckers: The new rule prevents drayage truckers from being billed for late fees related to cargo containers' pick-up and return times. This marks a significant shift from previous practices, aiming to alleviate some financial burdens on truckers. Shift of Burden to Shippers: While the rule relieves truckers, it inadvertently places the responsibility for these fees onto the shoulders of shippers. According to the National Industrial Transportation League (NITL), this could lead to increased administrative costs and complexities for shippers, who must now manage these processes and ensure contractual clarity. Concerns and Implications: There's the worry that this shift might reduce truckers' motivation to ensure timely container movements, potentially leading to operational delays. Shippers, especially those not at fault for delays, must carefully navigate their contracts with ocean carriers and trucking companies to avoid unwarranted charges. FMC Chairman Daniel Maffei has emphasized the rule's aim to promote cargo movement and prevent fee abuses. However, the effectiveness of this new approach in improving supply chain fluidity remains to be seen, with industry stakeholders watching closely. The rule underscores the importance of clear contracts and open communication between shippers, carriers, and truckers. As the industry adjusts to these changes, all eyes will be on the long-term impacts on shipping efficiency and cost distribution.

The downturn of the trucking industry over these past 2 years is really shaking things up. I expect to see many more companies in the logistics space weighing their options, similarly to what UPS is doing. If you can ride this wave though... who knows what might happen? Potentially, acquiring logistics companies that are wanting out is a way you set yourself up for major success when this market turns back around? Just my thoughts, whatever they may or may not be worth. Feel free to take them or leave them. #sales #factoring #logistics #wallstreetjournal https://lnkd.in/d5FbyCkx
