I just got 3 load alerts all separated 10 minutes for the same load
$4,680
$5,070
$5,460
It's 19,000 pounds and 70' long going 950 miles -
The rate good for the load?

Not on Landstar yet...they have good paying reefer or dry van near Ga, Fl, Va areas? I'm hearing they're pretty low right now...

Most BCO's quote the gross amount that the load pays, not their cut. It is rare that I have had any of them give me their cut. It sounds better when they quote the gross rather than truck money. If a BCO is power only and the load pays $2.00, it sounds better than if you take Landstar's cut out of it which leaves the BCO with $1.35 (65%), plus the fsc. Landstar used to make it much more complicated to calculate the truck money. They used to pay 98% of 100%. Now they lowered the truck percentage and pay on 100%, but the numbers are about the same. -
What you say is the ratio of D/H vs. live at Landstar?

Besides the extra percentage, How does owning my own trailer help make more money? Doesn't it limit the pool of freight available to me since I would not be able to take drop and hook loads?
