Will more truckers be in higher demand in 2025? Check out these predictions.
The trucking industry is the vehicle that drives our retail and manufacturing industries. Without truckers, everyday people and huge businesses alike would not be able to source the inventory they need from different cities, states, and regions. Trucks play a crucial role in driving forward the tangible nature of economics, whether it’s delivering produce to supermarkets or transporting laboratory specimens to a lab. However, trucking does not always thrive. The question many in business have today is, “Is trucking in high demand in 2025?”
Trucking is in More Demand Than Ever
An Improving Economy
Numerous expert reports say that trucking is in high demand in 2025 and that that demand will only increase throughout this year. Since 2020, the economy has slowly recovered in the United States, slower than some people expected but still gradual enough to be encouraged. With a more robust economy comes an increased need for truckers, which is why 2025 has a positive outlook.
Expected Increase in Demand Long-Term
The American Trucking Association (ATA) predicts a growth in the trucking industry from 11.27 billion tons of freight to almost 14 billion tons over the next ten years. With this increase comes an increase in revenue for the trucking industry. You can read more about the predicted numbers and past data in the national trucking industry at the Truckers Report.
A Cautious But Positive Prediction
All predictions come with some room for error, and the nation’s economics fare better or worse depending on political, natural, and other factors. With many things going on in the world in early 2025, one can expect a positive outlook for trucking but know that this year can come with unforeseen challenges.
The Inherent Benefits of Trucking
Trucking will always be in demand due to its practical and efficient nature. Ever since highways and automobiles have been in existence, trucks have become the main way to reach businesses, manufacturers, warehouses, and consumers. Even if you use an airplane, ship, or train to move your freight, a truck will need to start and finish the journey.
