Roadrunner Transportation Systems raises freight rate

Roadrunner Transportation Systems Inc., a Cudahy-based asset-light transportation and logistics services provider, announced it will implement an average 6.9-percent rate increase for all non-contractual customers effective Aug. 15.
While the increase will average 6.9 percent, the actual rate increase will vary based upon lane, weight and freight classification. The rate increase will apply to all less-than-truckload rates, but absolute minimum charge shipments and accessorial fees will remain unchanged.
Roadrunner serves customers across North America in a variety of industries including retail, industrial, paper goods, manufacturing, food and beverage, health care, chemicals, computer hardware and general commodities.
