Produce Season is Here
It’s beginning to look a lot like… produce season! Fruits and vegetables are starting to be harvested, and shipping volumes are expected to see an increase.
In the U.S., states in the south typically start this produce season in late March/April, while states in the north see produce season start more throughout the summer and early fall.
One thing to keep in mind is produce shipments need to move quickly, in order to stay fresh and not go bad. With that urgency, produce freight rates usually become more of a premium in order to secure a truck.
