Ep. 15 | September 2022 Transportation Market Update: How Freight Movement Changes and How to Plan Throughout September

September is a pivotal month in many respects. The seasons shift from summer to fall and shorts are swapped for long pants as the warmth of longer days slowly dims.

For American families, nights spent at the ballpark watching children live out their Little League dreams, come to a close. Baseball cleats are exchanged for shin guards, the diamond for a grassy field. 

That said, domestic life isn’t the only thing that changes in September. No, as fantasy football teams are drafted and homemade chili recipes dusted off, shippers around our country will feel September’s impact too, but in a different way.
