Arrive Logistics' June 2026 market update shows the U.S. truckload market remains tight, with spot rates exceeding contract rates for dry van and reefer after a historic May Roadcheck Week surge. Flatbed linehaul rates hit an all-time high of $2.94 per mile, while carrier rejections stayed elevated at 18% for dry van, 25% for reefer and 30-40% for flatbed. Class 8 tractor orders fell to around 13,200 units in May and fleet age reached a decade-high 6.3 years, pointing to a structural capacity crunch that could persist into 2027.
