Dry Load Runs From East Coast To West Coast? I need help...

You can look for loads on the boards but if they are leased on to a company, are they not getting them loaded?

Its concerning that you are foregoing profitability to get your drivers more home time. That's very considerate of you but ultimately, it puts you, the trucks owner, at risk as a business and contributes to the California syndrome... take an okay load out of CA and then pay for fuel coming back. With that mindset so prevalent, every broker out there knows if a load runs all the way back, keep it cheap because someone is going to take it to get home.

I'd recommend if you are going to run coast to coast, you triangulate loads which zig zag the trucks back. Running cheap will only hurt you in the long run and when you're losing money, your drivers will look for other jobs and won't be there to pay back all the consideration you gave them. If your guys are different, then I apologize.
