Tank & Refrigeration Trucking

The Tank and Refrigeration Trucking industry provides long-distance transportation services for specialized freight. For example, climate-controlled trailers, dump trucks and tanker trailers are used to transport food, construction materials and oil, respectively. Industry demand is broadly determined by the US economy, with consumer spending generating demand for the transportation of manufacturing inputs, automobiles and other specialized freight. Booming US oil and gas production, higher energy prices, growing consumer spending, greater manufacturing output levels and higher US construction activity all boosted demand for industry services over the five years to 2022.
