I was wondering on average what flat bed lease operators are getting for miles each week? I'm currently running reefers and am thinking of switching to flat bed. I will be upgrading and wondering if I should switch or not. Worrying if I will get the miles or not to make the payment and have something left over.thanks in advance

You would probably get more responses in the Prime forum.
Straight Stacks Thanks this. -
I was getting about 3000 miles a week and an average of 1200$ a week after expenses
-
$1,2-$1,500/week minimum, before taxes but prime doesn't report all of that on the 1099, seemingly.
In the summer I usually see checks hit the mid 2000's. I've also only seen $50 after an 80 hour week.
You really wouldn't think it, but prime gts some really good flstbed freight. All I see other mega carrier flatbeders pulling is bulk commodities like steel, lumber, pipe, ect. And by others I mean maveric, TMC, BOYD, ect...we do that too, but it's a pretty good 80/20 split, I rarely see a bulk load and do a lot more machinery & refined commodities; these pay better as a whole.Last edited: Feb 7, 2015
