Connecticut box truck rate history
All-in rateFuel cost per mile
A 26' box truck leaving Connecticut averaged $1.89 a mile all-in in October 2026, −16.7% against the national $2.27. Loads arriving averaged $2.80. Connecticut is a backhaul market: it is cheaper to ship out than to ship in, because trucks that delivered here compete for a limited number of outbound loads.
State history applies today's Connecticut adjustment to the national series back to 2003.
