I'm considering becoming an O/O, leaving my local driving job and, hitting the highway. After a considerable amount of research, it seems to me that CH Robinson probably offers the best opportunity to keep the wheels rolling. Would appreciate any info that might exist regarding an average $ / mile I might expect from CH Robinson.

CHR ain't the only game out there with the quick pay, so all you guys thinking you can make it on CHR freight are in for a big surprise!! I'm finding that by using CHR less as possible is more profitable as other brokers do tend to pay more. Although their freight board by far has more loads, their rates are definitely lower than other sources. We have found by checking our other sources first,we can find better rates. Although my trucks have done over 350K with CHR, those same loads would have probably brought in over 400K had we been more diligent in checking rates through other sources. CHR's website is excellent and kinda spoils a dispatcher from REALLY trying to find the best paying load. Even I sometimes forget to check my other boards when i'm trying to find a load quickly. Don't expect much from the northeast out of them,sometimes you'll be lucky to see $350 on a 500 mile run out of PA

With All This In Mind, Do CHR Pay Fuel Surcharge Or Do They Add It To The Pay Per Mile Avg ? And Has Anybody Worked With The Maryland And Delaware Offices Before.

Ch doesnt really pay per mile, they offer you a flat rate and the broker is smart enough to have done the math to be able to tell you what it works out to per mile. Sometimes, if you have a good score with them, the broker likes you and they really need to move the frieght (which you can usually tell by the pickup time "its ready now" and the delivery time "how soon can you be there") you can beat them up on the price. Sometimes they tell you that this is what its paying and "there are a hundred trucks in the same area sitting so if you want it you better tell me now". Never once seen any rate confirmations that had a fuel surcharge on it unless we asked them to break one out of the rate and list it on the confirmation, which we did when we were signed on with UACL just so they wouldnt get as much when they took their percentage from the linehaul rate.
