We do not have a Ohio rate yet

Sample size is zero. Calls are under way, and no hourly band publishes for Ohio until the sample clears our floor and part of it has been cross-checked against submitted invoices. The figures below are the national placeholder every cost page falls back to — they are not a measurement of this state.

A fabricated state band would be undetectable by a reader and would quietly corrupt every repair estimate on the site, because the hourly rate is the multiplier under all of them. So the gap stays visible. If you have an invoice from a Ohio shop, it moves this page faster than anything else can.

Class 8 tractor

$125–$210/hr

national placeholder

Class 6–7 medium duty

$110–$185/hr

national placeholder

Class 3–5 and diesel pickup

$95–$165/hr

national placeholder

Source of the bands above: provisional national placeholder — TODO(verify), not yet from our collected dataset. We have no Ohio call-out figure at all yet, so none is shown — a roadside minimum varies more by operator than by state, and guessing at it would be the least defensible number on the page.

What drives the rate in Ohio

Ohio sits at the crossing of the primary east-west and north-south corridors in the eastern half of the country, and it has one of the deepest independent heavy-duty shop networks anywhere as a result. Columbus, Toledo, and the I-75 corridor through Dayton and Cincinnati all carry very heavy volume. The Ohio Turnpike and the I-80/I-90 run across the north are exposed to lake-effect winter weather that drives seasonal spikes in air system, charging, and cooling work.

Commercial motor vehicles in Ohio are subject to the federal annual inspection requirement under 49 CFR 396.17. Ohio does not operate a separate statewide periodic safety inspection for most commercial vehicles; enforcement is conducted roadside by the Ohio State Highway Patrol under the North American Standard inspection procedure, and Ohio consistently runs one of the higher commercial inspection volumes in the country. TODO(verify): current OSHP programme scope and any requirements specific to intrastate carriers or specialty vehicle categories.

49 CFR 396.17

Freight corridors through Ohio

Where you break down inside a state moves the bill as much as which state it is. Rates on a corridor with competing truck stops and several independents run below the same work at a dealer two hundred miles from anywhere.

  • I-70
  • I-71
  • I-75
  • I-76
  • I-77
  • I-80
  • I-90
  • I-270

TODO(verify): no defensible sample yet. Rates print as "collection in progress" until sampleSize is above zero and the figures are verified against submitted invoices. Local context: I-70, I-75, and I-80 intersect here, which supports an unusually dense independent shop network.

Verified shops in Ohio

We call every shop before it appears here, and publish the date.

Sample records only — seeded to demonstrate the directory. None of these numbers has been called.

This band improves every time somebody sends an invoice showing what a Ohio shop actually charged. Quoted rates and charged rates are not the same number.

No account. No email required. We publish aggregates only, never your invoice.
