Minnesota hotshot rate history
All-in rateFuel cost per mile
A Hotshot leaving Minnesota averaged $2.78 a mile all-in in October 2026, +20.9% against the national $2.30. Loads arriving averaged $2.15. 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.
