Cargo Theft Changed: Fewer Loads, Higher-Dollar Targets

Cargo theft is down 26% in 2025—but the value of stolen freight has doubled. Danielle Spinelli of GenLogs breaks down why fraud rings are shifting to higher-value loads, how sold MCs and pattern changes get flagged, and what brokers and carriers should watch now.

Cab Clutter Can Cost Fleets Millions

Truck cab clutter is more than a nuisance—it can become a safety risk that costs fleets millions. James Boyce, a full-time driver and founder of BubbaLee LLC, explains how loose items in the cab turn into distractions, close calls and potential lawsuit exposure. He breaks down the idea behind Trucker Tote, why he built it while still driving full-time, and why fleets should care about in-cab organization as a real safety issue—not just a housekeeping problem. A professional truck driver is pitching fleets on a modular cab organizer he says could help reduce distracted-driving accidents — and the nine-figure legal exposure that increasingly follows them.
