    There is the pick up city, and estimated time for live load/unloads. Drop and hooks are almost always listed at 30 minutes.
    Once the load is assigned to you then you get all the customer info.
     
    BigNate Thanks this.

    I'm not greedy, I'm running a successful operation and saying no to cheap freight :)

    If I was greedy i'd be doing flatbed or ice road trucking lol.
    I like to do well without a bunch of stress.

    My grandpa retired from military, a paper mill, and sold a very successful hardware business we ran for about 15 years as a family. He still plays in stock market. He has no worries as far as money is concerned that's where I hope to be one day

    If it's a big city like Chicongo it's tough sometimes figure out the customer even if you've done the same exact load before.
    Usually it's not that hard if it's not a big city.

    Sometimes if I've never been there before i can figure out the customer just by the city and looking up the city on satellite view maps.

    Take a "drop and hook" in Ashley, Indiana for example. Look around the town and see what trucking customer has a bunch of trailers all over the place.
    That's one for example i looked up and was easy to figure out just by knowing the city.

    That is definitely something they need to adjust on the load board
