Central Dispatch finally did it

Who runs.owns that load board?

 

Wow $105 a month for load board. That sounds like the cable company that is losing customers to streaming companies and have to raise rates on their customers to cover overhead.

 

When your cost goes up, so should your rate, within reason of course. On every posted vehicle I call on, I ask for more money than what they have it posted at. Usually $50 to $100.00 more. We get that extra money more often than not.

 

Fear not, Uber has entered the freight market and has put folks like CH Robinson and many others on notice.
Their claim to fame will be computer automation vs. a phone call eliminating the office staff.

They expect to track available units through QC and match loads so the target right now is the megas running predicted lanes.

Hmmm

 

Just my opinion but I doubt Uber for trucking will be around long. And I don't think it will effect our line of work one bit.

 

I think it's coming, but I also think that we already have Uber for trucking in all but name with modern load boards. I'm not expecting TOO big of an impact.
