An exclusive Off Ramp data audit of NMFC tonnage reroutes shows Estes, Saia and XPO absorbed 71% of the displaced volume — but a quiet regional cohort is the real winner. We map the new LTL geography.
April TEU volumes through San Pedro Bay hit a near-record. With chassis pools running 92% utilization, intermodal ramps in the Inland Empire are the new bottleneck — and a leading indicator for May contract negotiations.

Off Ramp is read every morning by the practitioners on both sides of the transaction — the shippers who buy freight and the carriers, brokers, and operators who move it. If your job touches a load, this brief was written for you.
You run the bid season. You set the budget. You're the one explaining to finance why spot exposure is up 18% this quarter. Off Ramp gives you the market context to defend your number — and the early signal to renegotiate when the cycle turns.
You're calling four trucks deep at 6am to cover a tender. You're justifying margin to a customer at 11. Off Ramp tells you which lanes are tightening before your shippers ask, and which are softening before your carriers demand a raise.
You decide every morning where the trucks go. Off Ramp shows you which origins are paying premiums, where rejection rates are spiking, and what the contract market is doing when your customers swear nothing has changed.
Trade flows don't honor the lines on the map. We cover the corridors that move freight between Vancouver, Veracruz, and everywhere in between — wait times at Laredo, CANACAR fleet additions, and the policy moves that reshape your routing.
Your market lives or dies on chassis pools, gate hours, and what the steamships are doing six weeks from now. We track every major US port, IPI lane, and the ramp-by-ramp data nobody else publishes daily.
You cover the publics — Knight-Swift, Old Dominion, J.B. Hunt, XPO, Saia. We give you the operator-level read every morning so you walk into the earnings call already knowing what the prepared remarks will say.
