Bulk-milk truck transportation costs are estimated over trip lengths from 100 through 1,500 one-way miles. Model truck firms are developed for these cost estimates based on information on operations and costs obtained from nine milk-trucking firms in 1976. Total trip costs for specified trip lengths are analyzed for several alternative situations and projected to 1985 on the basis of mileage, hundredweight, and hundredweight per mile. Total transportation functions are developed from the cost data.
