    It won't copy

    but it's presented as A flat rate let's say 1000.00 then in the brokers addendum it states line haul rate includes 122.34 of the line haul rate is a fuel surcharge per doe guidelines week of...(whatever)

    or echo does it like in bullet point form
    FSC 122.34
    linehaul rate 877.66= flat rate 1000.00

    I've been using the same Celadon trailer since I started, they now charge me a rental on it of 160.00, my D.M told me that I would be doing some drop and hook, but so far all live load and unload.

    I was told by my D.M that we are not using JB hunt at this time, but that was when I started back in April, maybe things have changed since then.

    Eagle's system, to me anyway, seems to be centered on the East side short hauls for van, and I am used to the long haul west coast, on this run that I am on going to Las Vegas, I know that I will have a big DH to a load going back to midwest. On my last lease, if you were on percentage, you could go percentage or mileage, we would give them up to 250 miles DH, anything after that they would compensate at .90 a mile, but then that was running reefer, lots of C.H. Robinson produce loads out in Cali going to all points East.

    Fr8monkey seems that you are getting a handle on it. Just a few more tweeks and you will hit those $2k weeks soon. I'm glad to see you doing it! I admire your determination to make it work. I applied yesterday. I'm pulling Swift freight right now. Driving my friends 2nd truck for him. He's got 2 Rollin on lease over there but the inability to pick freight and the inability to generate more revenue frustrates me to no end. I get a percentage of the profit I make for the truck. So Eagle looks like its biz 101 generate income, minimize costs, increase your profits. Most of all provide good old fashioned excellent customer service. I've been reading all your posts and cheering you on!! Hope it keeps improving for you and everyone else on here!!here's to your success! (_)3
