| 摘要： | AMID WHAT ONE TRUCKING ANALYST CALLS "an everything shortage," shippers enter 2022 with heavy volumes of truck shipments bracing for continued higher ground freight rates. Those rates can run in the double-digit percentage increases-on top of 2021's increases. Those increased freight rates tended to be upward of 10% for shippers whose freight did not match carriers' needs in this sellers' market. No matter what else happens in 2022, the need for speed is paramount for both shippers and carriers. But contrary to popular belief, shippers are not without weapons in tough rate negotiations with carriers. And while those increases could be common for shippers whose freight tends to cause carriers wasteful effort such as excessive wait times at docks, freight experts say shippers can control some of their rate destiny. |
