The American Transportation Research Institute (ATRI) launched a survey today to update the 2011 Operational Costs of Trucking report. The brief online survey seeks to capture basic cost information from for-hire carriers such as driver pay, fuel costs, insurance premiums and lease or purchase payments. Carriers are asked to provide full year 2010 and 2011 cost per mile and cost per hour data.
In combination with the previous Operational Costs of Trucking reports, the results of this research will yield four full years (2008 – 2011) of trucking financial information derived directly from fleet operations. This research provides carriers with an important benchmarking tool and government agencies with an accurate dataset for infrastructure improvement analyses.
For-hire motor carriers are encouraged to provide confidential operational cost data through ATRI’s survey, available here. The results of this survey will be available later this year.
