Carriers, owner-ops, dispatchers, and brokers quick discussion on timing in the spot market.

Carriers: What’s the best time of day for fresh, high-paying loads on DAT? Early morning (7-10:30 AM) when new freight drops, or later in the day for desperation/hot loads?

How far out do you usually book; same day, 1-2 days, or 3+?

Brokers: When do you get the best coverage and rates? Early bird or wait for afternoon/evening?
What’s working in your lanes right now? Any big differences by day of week, region?
