Q&A: DCLI calls national chassis pool debate an illusion
On the surface, a national chassis pool might appear to be a panacea for American shippers and their truckers, who continue to struggle with managing this crucial equipment for their intermodal container moves. But this type of pool would quickly prove disastrous, according to one industry representative who opposes the concept.
“We believe shippers and especially truckers are being led astray,” said Ryan Houfek, chief commercial officer of DCLI. “This one-size-fits-all approach of a single gray pool would have only marginal efficiency benefits while dramatically undermining the incentive to invest and improve the chassis.”
