☀️ JUNE STARTS THE 100-DAY FREIGHT TEST

Summer freight isn't one disruption.

It's a stack of pressures:

• Higher fuel costs
• Produce season demand
• Driver vacations
• Weather risks
• Tightening capacity
• Increased shipping volume

Individually, these challenges are manageable.

Together, they create the most demanding stretch of the freight calendar—from June through Labor Day.

📌 The Shipping Doctor's Prescription:

✔ Make every shipment easy to move
✔ Plan around holidays and busy Fridays
✔ Monitor fuel and accessorial costs
✔ Stay ahead of weather disruptions
✔ Work with a provider that actively manages the entire move

In a summer market, carriers have choices.

The freight that is accurate, ready, and easy to execute doesn't just get quoted—it gets chosen.

At PPLUS, we treat summer freight as a controlled operating season, not a series of surprises.

Expedited doesn’t mean rushed. It means controlled.

True expedited shipping isn’t chaos—it’s precision.
It’s planning, ex*****on, and real-time decision-making working together.

At PPLUS, speed comes with strategy—not shortcuts.

THE TUESDAY REBOUND 🚛

The holiday may be over — but the freight network is still catching up.

After a long weekend:
• Backlogged freight competes with new shipments
• Carrier schedules are still resetting
• Appointment windows fill fast
• Recovery freight gets expensive

Tuesday after a holiday is not “business as usual.”
It’s a recovery wave.

📌 The Shipping Doctor’s Prescription:
✔ Confirm capacity early
✔ Recheck dock & delivery hours
✔ Prioritize critical freight
✔ Make shipments carrier-ready
✔ Expect recovery pricing

At PPLUS, we treat post-holiday freight like the recovery event it is — because that’s how freight keeps moving when the network is still catching its breath.

This Memorial Day, we honor and remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country.

As we spend time with family and friends this weekend, we pause to recognize those who served and gave everything for our freedom. Thank you for your courage, service, and sacrifice.

Please note that the offices of Performance Plus Global Logistics will be closed on Monday, May 25, in observance of Memorial Day. We will resume normal business hours on Tuesday.

Wishing everyone a safe and meaningful Memorial Day weekend.

MEMORIAL DAY FREIGHT SQUEEZE 🚛🇺🇸

A short holiday week can create long delays.

Before Memorial Day, freight volume spikes as everyone tries to ship early while carriers, docks, and appointment schedules operate on compressed timelines.

That means:
• Capacity tightens
• Recovery options shrink
• Delays roll into the following week

The backlog creates the delay.

📌 The Shipping Doctor’s Prescription:
✔ Plan early
✔ Confirm dock hours
✔ Protect carrier time
✔ Prioritize urgent freight
✔ Expect a busy Tuesday rebound

At PPLUS, we plan around the real operating calendar — not just the date on the wall.

Loaded up and on the road!

When fuel spikes, your shipping strategy should too.

Fuel doesn’t just affect pricing—it reshapes the entire market:
• Carrier behavior shifts
• Capacity tightens
• Rates become unpredictable

If you’re only watching base rates, you’re missing the full picture.

Stay ahead of the market—not behind it.
