I know that Jevic sent out notices to all their customers Friday that they would not be picking anything up. We had a major shipper on Friday backstrip 3-4 full loads for Jevic and throw them on us. We should see some increase in freight but for how long nobody knows.
I doubt they will be the last to go in 2008 with the cost of fuel sky high. The companies with drivers running hundreds of miles a day each to pick up a few skids here and there are probably getting the worst of it right now.
