New Mexico flatbed rate history
All-in rateFuel cost per mile
A 48' flatbed leaving New Mexico averaged $3.44 a mile all-in in October 2026, −19.4% against the national $4.27. Loads arriving averaged $4.45. New Mexico 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 New Mexico adjustment to the national series back to 2003.
