Vermont hotshot rate history

All-in rateFuel cost per mile

A Hotshot leaving Vermont averaged $2.04 a mile all-in in October 2026, −11.3% against the national $2.30. Loads arriving averaged $2.81. Vermont 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 Vermont adjustment to the national series back to 2003.
