SPOT MARKET SURGE INCOMING – Timeline of WHEN Chinese Freight Hits U.S. Trucks

Описание: Wondering when Chinese freight will hit the U.S. spot market for truckers, carriers, and owner-operators? In this week’s video, we break down the exact timeline of how long it takes for freight to go from loading in China to showing up on semi trucks in the U.S., ready for spot market hauling.

We cover every step in the supply chain and give you specific dates for when you can expect the surge in spot market freight, thanks to the recent tariff rate reductions that went into effect on May 12.

✅ Loading in China: 1–7 days
✅ Ocean transit times to major U.S. ports (Los Angeles, Long Beach, New York, Savannah, etc.)
✅ Port unloading, customs clearance, port dwell time, and drayage to warehouses
✅ Brokerage/distribution processes and OTR availability

Here’s when this freight actually becomes available to motor carriers:

West Coast Spot Market: May 30 – June 7

East Coast Spot Market: June 16 – 25

Peak Spot Market Volume: Mid-June through late July

Whether you're running a single truck or a small fleet, understanding these timelines helps you position your trucks for maximum profitability during the back-to-school import surge and beyond.

👉 Don’t guess when freight is coming. Know the timeline. Plan ahead. Profit more.
