Alabama power only rate history
All-in rateFuel cost per mile
A Power only leaving Alabama averaged $3.26 a mile all-in in October 2026, +6.9% against the national $3.05. Loads arriving averaged $3.02. Alabama 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 Alabama adjustment to the national series back to 2003.
