Flatbed demand remains concentrated in the Southeast and lower Midwest, with Texas, Mississippi, and Georgia continuing to show strong activity, while the Western and Northeastern regions reflect a softer market. Reefer trucks show widespread demand across much of the West and Midwest, particularly in California, Arizona, and Minnesota, indicating seasonal shipping pressures likely linked to produce. Dry vans show more moderate demand overall, with elevated activity in the Southeast and Central U.S., while the West Coast and Northeast reflect relatively flat market conditions. Overall, regional pockets of demand persist, but broad upward momentum remains limited, signaling a market still adjusting post-peak season.
