About Power Only Trucking

Power-only trucking provides the tractor to pull pre-loaded trailers — no trailer ownership needed. Popular for intermodal drayage, trailer pools, and carriers wanting lower equipment costs.

Power Only Market in the Northeast

The Northeast dry van market benefits from high-density consumer demand along the I-95 corridor. Port-driven import freight from Newark and Baltimore keeps capacity tight, especially during peak retail seasons. Tolls on the NJ Turnpike and I-95 cut into margins, but shorter average haul distances mean more loads per week. Owner-operators who master the congestion patterns and delivery windows can consistently outperform national averages.
