Joined by Cody Koehler from A&amp;Z Trucking, our discussion focuses on the real-world operational challenges of managing a reefer fleet, including the impact of safety check weeks on truck capacity and the critical differences between non-domiciled and illegal CDL drivers. We also explain how smart brokers can protect customers from market volatility through strong, dedicated carrier relationships built on fast payments, easy tracking, and mutual respect! About Cody Koehler Cody is a 21-year veteran in supply chain/logistics. He has done just about everything in this industry minus holding his CDL (he did drive a yard dog though).
