The Truckload Carriers Assn. (TCA) will host an audio conference addressing how to manage risk when purchasing fuel in a volatile energy market on Jan. 26 from 12 pm to 1:30 pm.

Topics will include:

  • tools and terminologies to know
  • how to assess risk (falling prices potentially put some carriers at a disadvantage)

  • how to cap future fuel purchase prices and protect investment in gallons purchased
