Want more information on rates and shipper/carrier contracts? Check out a series of blogs written by editorial director Lou Smyrlis on the subject. They include:

• Cost increases are becoming a worrisome and long-lasting trend;

• Living on the edge of healthy profit margins;

• Dealing with rates: You reap what you sow;

• Transportation now on the wrong side of the growth hump.

Each of the blog entries, as well as others, can be viewed at www.trucknews.com.

You can also check out some video segments on the subject, from our annual Shipper/Carrier Roundtable – Decisions 2008. Part 2 focuses on rates and Part 3 on contracts.

The videos feature some of the industry’s most prominent shippers and carriers.

They can be viewed by visiting ‘Video Picks,’ the multimedia section of trucknews.com.
