These companies fall under three categories of the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS): NAICS 484 (Truck Transportation), NAICS 492 (Messengers and Couriers), and NAICS 493 (Warehousing and Storage). Data collected include operating revenue by source, percentage of motor carrier freight revenue by commodity type, weight of shipments handled, length of haul, and country of origin and destination of shipment, and vehicle fleet inventory. Available data series include 1) national estimates of revenue and vehicle fleet inventories for commercial motor freight transportation and public warehousing service industries and 2) freight characteristics such as percentage of motor carrier freight revenue by commodity type, weight of shipments handled, length of haul, and country of origin and destination of shipment.
