**TENDER REJECTIONS BREAK 14%**
Tender rejections have climbed above 14%—their highest level since early August and a clear warning that truckload capacity is tightening.
The increase outpaced the previous three Labor Day periods, even without a major national demand surge. That means modest volume growth could quickly create:
• Coverage gaps
• Higher carrier rates
• Shorter quote validity
• Greater margin pressure
Dry van remains the most volatile, re**er is steadier, and elevated flatbed pricing is beginning to cool.
Brokers and shippers should refresh rates, confirm capacity early and build backup coverage before committing.
