A spot market index is a running breakdown of these drayage rates. A spot quote is a one-time rate quote issued to a shipper for one transaction or one group of transactions.
How do you reduce drayage costs when transportation issues like the following present themselves?
- Communication breakdowns
- Software employees struggle to learn and use
- Shipping time lost due to railway delays and highway congestion
Add to these problems rapidly mounting associated costs including:
- Storage fees
- Flip charges
- Per-diem charges
Further compounding the matter is how quickly freight rates change and the many factors that go into determining them.
