    Def think reefer is the way to go man. Brokers do not make a lot of money on reefers as they do on flat. Having companies such as frozen food ones the appointments are tight and with extra stops I notice I have to pay drivers a lot more than I want to.

    Not only that but your reputation as a broker is also on the line. You may think not a big deal but this is really a small industry and word gets around. Cut rate truck operators take shortcuts putting your loads at risk.

    I believe what you did was fine as I believe in free markets. Supply and Demand and all. But I want to really thank you for posting what you made. It is up to us to tell you to go duck yourself when we are getting sc rewed over. Your family has to eat just like ours.

    I do have a problem with all those who agree to haul cheap.
