Trucking (No Local)

Trucking (No Local)

The Trucking (No Local) sector under SIC 4213 anchors long-haul freight moves—full truckload, LTL, refrigerated, flatbed, and intermodal linehaul—serving manufacturers, big-box and e-commerce retailers, agribusiness shippers, and industrial distributors that rely on consistent multi-region coverage. Core value comes from reliable capacity, on-time service, and integrated tech for tracking and dock scheduling. Operators face volatile diesel prices, persistent driver recruiting and retention hurdles, FMCSA hours-of-service and safety rules, tightening emissions standards, and exposure to economic swings that shift freight demand and spot rates. In 2024-2025, the market is shaped by nearshoring-driven border freight, disciplined capacity after pandemic overbuild, LTL network realignments, rising AI-based route optimization, early-stage battery-electric and hydrogen pilots for regional hauls, and autonomous testing in sunbelt corridors. Shippers are pushing for greener lanes and more transparent pricing, favoring carriers with data-rich compliance.
