Destination
Las Vegas convention season (January-March, September-November) creates freight spikes. SLC's inland port drives outbound year-round. Southern Utah ski resorts generate seasonal freight November-April. Summer heat in the Nevada portion can exceed 115 F. Vegas construction boom drives building materials demand.
I-15 through the Virgin River Gorge (UT/AZ border) has narrow lanes, no shoulders, and height restrictions. One of the most dangerous truck segments in the West.
Las Vegas backhaul is notoriously weak. Factor deadhead or find connecting loads to LA or Phoenix.
Cedar City and St. George, UT are growing rapidly. Check for intermediate delivery opportunities.
Fuel in Utah is cheaper than Nevada. Fill up before crossing the state line.
SLC's new inland port near the airport is generating increasing freight volumes. Check for outbound loads.
