Brain wave: Imagine if mega-carriers put as much planning into overnight parking as they do into fuel stops. Truck parking would be COMPLETELY transformed. š§µbelow... #trucking @FW_Truck @TimothyDooner @puddleofyuck @BrokenSword25 @FWwhatthetruck @TruckingDepot @truckingshow
Big companies typically plan out their fuel stops using routing software that considers fuel cost, taxes, driving efficiency, and more. Its common for their drivers to get 50 gallons here, fill up there, and another 100 gallons down the road. This is actually smart.
Now lets get smarter. Mega carriers have this incredibly sophisticated routing software connected to their vast terminal, trailer, customer, and drop lot networks. How hard would it be to provide the driver with a list of suggested authorized overnight locations along the route.

2/ When I started Convoy 8 yrs ago, I wondered why trucking was still so fragmented. Why hadnāt economies of scale caused the market to consolidate around leading providers (like parcel, LTL, air freight, ocean, ridesharing) who could offer better service & lower prices?
3/ Why is selecting dozens or hundreds of trucking providers the strategy of choice for companies procuring these services in the U.S.? The article answers these questions and paints a clear picture of how and why this is now changing with a new model, the hybrid carrier.
