Minnesota dry van rate history
All-in rateFuel cost per mile
A 53' dry van leaving Minnesota averaged $4.21 a mile all-in in October 2026, +20.6% against the national $3.49. Loads arriving averaged $3.26. Minnesota 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 Minnesota adjustment to the national series back to 2003.
