Challenges
- Turnpike tolls adding to delivery costs, oversized flight simulator loads requiring special permits and routing, limited truck parking within city limits, and residential growth restricting truck routes.
- Extreme summer heat can cause tire blowouts and equipment stress
- Cross-border freight at Laredo and El Paso creates long wait times
- Oil price volatility affects freight demand in energy-dependent areas
Opportunities
- Cross-border NAFTA freight through Laredo and El Paso is enormous
- Texas is the highest freight-generating state in the US
- Year-round operations with minimal weather disruptions
- Oil and gas industry creates premium-rate flatbed and hotshot demand
