Florida step deck rate history
All-in rateFuel cost per mile
A Step deck leaving Florida averaged $3.63 a mile all-in in October 2026, −22.1% against the national $4.66. Loads arriving averaged $5.92. Florida 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 Florida adjustment to the national series back to 2003.
