Freight Management Inc Highlights Visibility Challenges in u.s. Drayage
Freight Management Inc leverages technology to improve drayage visibility, helping reduce avoidable costs and manage rising return rates of 17% to 20%, industry sources say.
On March 20, 2026, Freight Management Inc issued a press release from Itasca, Illinois warning of limited visibility in U.S. drayage operations amid rising pressures, as costs and timelines are under increasing stress.
Congestion at major ports and intermodal hubs and rising accessorial charges have complicated predicting timing and total landed cost.
Freight Management Inc recommends combining access to established carrier networks with technology-enabled freight management to improve coordination and uncover inefficiencies, as end-to-end visibility helps reduce avoidable costs.
Industry observers note visibility now drives partner choice as tariffs and global trade conditions increase unexpected charges, delays, and inefficiencies for businesses that move freight.
Industry-Wide, companies are moving toward connected, transparent freight management, as drayage becomes a critical control point, backed by more than 40 years of experience, Freight Management Inc states.
