ODFL | Freight volume

[Dave OD NE]

Anyone know why freight is low in Ohio Valley and Northeast? Suppose to be the start of our busy season.

freight volume isn't low ... it just appears that way because TOO many new drivers have been hired ... all these new drivers better start getting used to sitting at home .. along with all the schedule cancellations that are sure to follow with all the new schedule additions as of late ...

Seems I’ve seen a few more empties laying around ATL than I’d like to see right now... up to now it seems we’ve been buried in freight but I’ve noticed a couple of hiccups in volume. I’m on a bid now until we bid in mid-May, but all that could change come bid time and I want to see those trailers full.

No shortage of freight in SEA. Things up here are going crazy and the hiring too. Looks like were going to need more equipment because when the line trucks arrive, a city guy is standing waiting for us to get out of them and POOF, its gone again......Ok Billy..chime in...

We are very very busy, we have hired a lot of guys. 10 + hours everyday, which is good cause that's what I want.
