A practical framework for truckload pricing

Leo J. Lazarus organizes truckload transportation economics around the decisions involved in pricing and network design. The coverage spans one-way rates, dedicated fleet pricing, capacity and balance, utilization, haul length, empty miles, and revenue per mile. Dedicated-pricing methods receive particular attention, including fixed-variable approaches, utilization scales, and over-under pricing, alongside shuttle, short-haul, and mileage-band topics. Four case studies examine bid response analysis, while separate chapters address network analysis and concepts for truckload shippers. The breadth makes the book a structured reference to the variables and pricing models that shape truckload operations.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Transportation professionals working with truckload pricing or fleet design
  • Truckload shippers seeking a guide to industry concepts and pricing methods
  • Business and economics readers interested in transportation analysis
