Arkansas hotshot rate history
All-in rateFuel cost per mile
A Hotshot leaving Arkansas averaged $2.30 a mile all-in in October 2026, in line with the national $2.30. Loads arriving averaged $2.05. Arkansas 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 Arkansas adjustment to the national series back to 2003.
