Dock Doors Are Not First-Come, First-Served

One wrong dock door costs a truck 20 minutes — forty trucks a day burns over 13 labor hours on forklifts driving in circles instead of doing real work. This is the field-tested logic for assigning dock doors in a YMS: reefers always get the doors nearest the cooler, with a "commodity overrides trailer type" escape hatch; flatbeds and dry vans never share a lane because side loading needs its own door block; receiving and shipping mind their own blocks, splitting by time when doors are short; and the fastest-moving freight lives closest to the pick zone, re-ranked from outbound data. It also covers the three costs of getting doors wrong — forklift detours, broken cold chain, yard congestion — how to build door profiles in the YMS, and a five-question self-check list for the dispatch office wall.

Borderlands Mexico: Avocado imports generate $641M for US trucking, warehousing

Mexican Hass avocado imports generated an estimated $641.5 million in U.S. transportation and warehousing activity and supported more than 4,150 jobs in fiscal 2025-26, according to Texas A&M researchers. Nearly 98% of shipments crossed by truck through Texas ports, with Pharr handling 58.2% and Laredo 39.4%, underscoring the role of cross-border cold chain and border warehousing. Total U.S. economic output from the trade reached $7.1 billion.

Reefer Truckload Rejections Soar: 1 in 5 Loads Rejected Nationally

Refrigerated truckload tender rejections hit 21.44% nationally as of Oct. 20, meaning roughly one in five reefer loads is being turned down by carriers, according to FreightWaves SONAR data — after peaking at 22.13% in mid-September. The tightest conditions are concentrated in the Pacific Northwest and parts of the Midwest, where fall harvests have lifted refrigerated volumes. Rising diesel costs and tight capacity have pushed reefer spot rates up about 28% year-to-date and contract rates up about 9%, so shippers should secure holiday capacity early.
