In the spirit of Thanksgiving week, let's have some Freight Facts About Turkeys!

Nearly 5.12 billion pounds of turkey were produced, and moved, across the U.S. in 2024.

2025 projections show that number dropping to 4.48 billion pounds, meaning fewer birds, tighter loads, and a whole lot of re**er coordination.

🚛 Top 3 turkey states?
Minnesota, North Carolina, and Arkansas - together, they handle over 37% of national production.

🥶 Most turkeys travel in refrigerated trucks, because no one wants a warm bird showing up late.

Turkey season isn’t just about stuffing. It’s about smart routing, tight timing, and keeping things cold.

Turkeys might not fly, but they sure move fast on I-40!

What starts as a “small thing” can cost you big.

A late follow-up. A disappearing support ticket. A credit limit that shrinks without warning.

Those aren’t just ops hiccups. Those are red flags, and freight agents are seeing them everywhere right now.

In our latest article, we’re breaking down the quiet shifts that signal bigger problems, and why agents are choosing Somerset instead of waiting for the fallout.

In the spirit of Halloween - we’re not ghosts when freight gets tricky.

When things go wrong in freight, a lot of people disappear.

Phone goes to voicemail.
Emails get “seen” but not answered.
You’re left chasing updates you should’ve had hours ago.

That’s not how we work.

At Somerset, we stay involved from quote to delivery, especially when things get messy.

Because anyone can move freight when everything goes smoothly. But real partners show up when it doesn’t.

You deserve a team that doesn’t ghost you when the pressure’s on.

Let’s talk about what dependable communication actually looks like in freight.

Smaller Freight Brokerages = Bigger Voice

Want to know the real difference between a small brokerage and a big one?

It’s not just size.

It’s how heard you are.

At the big brokerages, you’re just another agent on the leaderboard.

At the right smaller brokerage, you’re a name, not a number.

Your clients matter.

Your voice matters.

You matter.

Here’s the truth: agents don’t leave because of commission splits. They leave because they’re tired of being ignored.

We wrote this for the agents who want their work to mean something, and who are ready to be part of a team where they’re actually seen.

Meet Sean, Operations Specialist here at Somerset Logistics! This week he celebrated 4 years at Somerset!

When Sean isn't in the office you can find him hanging with family and friends, watching one of his favorite sports teams, or going to a concert!

We asked Sean about his time at Somerset, and he said, "After working for a large corporation for nearly 20 years, it is nice to be at a family-owned business that is close to home! I love the family atmosphere that has been created here and how it is a priority for our team to have a healthy work/life balance."

The Truth About Big Freight Brokerages

They promise the tech.

The tools.

The “recognition.”

But big brokerages? You’re paying for it, one way or another.

🚩 Customer accounts get reassigned.
📞 Support is ticket-based, not people-based.
📝 Contracts are filled with fine print.
😤 And your voice? Gets buried under volume goals and red tape.

If you’ve ever felt like just another number in a massive system, you’re not imagining it.

But not all freight agent programs are built like that.

👇 Read the truth in our latest article, whether you're looking to move to a bigger brokerage or you're realizing you aren't happy at a big brokerage - this one is for you:

If you're a freight agent who's built a solid book of business, here's something nobody tells you:

That book might be worth more than you think.

The problem?

Most brokerages don’t want to talk about what happens when you’re ready to exit.

They don’t offer buyouts.

They don’t structure transitions.

They just wait for you to walk away, and keep the relationships you spent years building.

You deserve better than that.

✅ Yes, you can sell your book.
✅ Yes, you can transition your clients.
✅ Yes, you should have a plan if you're ready to step away.

We broke it all down in this article for you:

🎃 Did you know the U.S. ships over 1.5 billion pounds of pumpkins each year? That’s a LOT of orange! And as Tennessee Vol fans here, we're not mad about all that orange!

📦 From Illinois fields to stores across the country, pumpkin logistics involve cooling, sorting, and careful trucking to keep them from going bad.

🚚 It’s a seasonal freight wave, one you see in grocery aisles and jack‑o‑lantern displays.

🧡 If you love fall as much as we do, this one’s for you.

Q4 Check-In for Freight Agents

We’re officially in Q4,

Which means two things:

📦 Freight is about to get real
🧠 And you’re probably thinking about what next year looks like

So here’s the question freight agents don’t always ask out loud:

👉 Am I happy where I’m at?
👉 Is my brokerage actually setting me up for success in 2026?
👉 Or am I just surviving another year because change feels hard?

Listen, we get it. Switching brokerages is a big deal.

But staying stuck in a place that doesn’t support you?

That’s way harder in the long run.

If you’ve been thinking about a change, or just want to see what other freight agents are doing to prep for a smarter new year, we’re always up for a real conversation (no pressure, no pitch).

Q4 isn’t just about finishing strong.

It’s about choosing how you start the next chapter.

Call us today to talk about your options and hear more about what we offer agents here at Somerset Logistics.

You’ve spent years building your book of business.

Long nights. Loyal customers.

Carrier relationships you’ve earned with grit and consistency.

But now… you’re starting to think about what’s next.

Not because you’re done.

But because you don’t want to walk away with nothing.

The problem?

Most freight agent programs don’t have a retirement plan.

They just wait for you to leave, and absorb your customers, or worse...hand them over to a junior rep. No succession plan, or residual income.

Your career deserves better.

If you’re wondering what happens to your book of business when you’re ready to slow down, we wrote this article for you:
