Rate Forecast

▲ +3.5% (rates rising)

August typically sees increased freight demand due to back-to-school inventory movement and summer peak season. The LA-Seattle corridor remains capacity-constrained with strong intermodal competition, supporting modest rate increases.

Carrier Capacity

🔴 Tight

West Coast port activity and seasonal merchandise movements create sustained carrier demand; limited available equipment on northbound moves from LA distribution hubs.
