ITS CHEAP !!!! ask them to send you a snap shot of their load board so you can get a idea of freight in your area. I was finding it to be well below a buck a mile in and out of Co and Az

Isn't Arizona a hard place to get freight out of? There fore they are going to do it as cheap as possible!
Say No! Stay out of there unless you can get a really high paying load that will afford you to dead head out.
I read a few weeks ago TMC had cut prices at one place to $.65!!! -
Now is not the time to pull for LS. I'm making more pulling my rock bucket locally and don't run any LS loadS unless they are over two bucks and I can get a back haul.
Hasn't happened for months. Think twice b 4 you pull for LS. Just my opinion right now. -
How r u folks doing?
After reading about LS rates so low I wanted to check the load board.
Ranger JBA 480.981.6096 (12/22 0800 12/29 1400) Cornwal, NY/Hayward CA. 48ft flt. 3710mi. #30,000
I called about this and they said that is was $5000 for the whole run-and I said thank you and hung up. That is like $1.34 a mile or so and I did not ask if that included a fuel surcharge. Not so great.
When you ask about the load, is the price before or after LS takes thier cut? I am not sure what questions I should be asking, when calling the LS board.
Response appreciated. Thanks and Merry Christmas! -
The rate that you see posted on the board is before LS cut.
-
Both boards are posted with rates before the Agent/Broker and Landstar get thier cut.
FSC is paid at 100% of the national average but only to Landstar BCO's and even then it's manipulated to a lower rate that the customer has aggreed to pay.
Hope this helps. -
I tried to get on at landstar, they took about 4 weeks, sent me to get my truck inspected, get a new physical, and a drug screen all of which I had to pay for, the lady at Starqual said it all looked great and then called me back 2 days later and said they were not going to sign a lease with me and refused to give me a reason as to why, Anyone else experience this with them??
