Wisconsin box truck rate history
All-in rateFuel cost per mile
A 26' box truck leaving Wisconsin averaged $2.71 a mile all-in in October 2026, +19.4% against the national $2.27. Loads arriving averaged $1.97. Wisconsin is a headhaul market: trucks leaving cost more than trucks arriving, because more freight is looking for a ride out than there are trucks delivering in.
State history applies today's Wisconsin adjustment to the national series back to 2003.
