Wind gusts can affect high-profile trailers; heavy rain can reduce visibility; snow and ice can disrupt mountain passes and interstates. Shippers can use the same official weather and travel resources as drivers when planning pickup windows, delivery expectations and communication with carriers.
Plan freight with weather in mind
Check your origin, destination and major route segments. Review National Weather Service alerts and state DOT travel notices, then communicate any possible schedule changes with your trucking company. Weather resources do not replace driver judgment, applicable regulations or current roadside instructions.
