Got 100k tons/month contract - looking for subs

If my math holds, you're looking at what, $84.40-$90ish/trip. 15 minutes to load, 20 miles to drive, and then who knows how long you're gonna sit at the offload, but figure 15-20 min there. That's an hour before you even jump back for the return run.

Seems like this is a recipe for bad juju to me, but I don't run dumps, so I have no idea if this is what they're getting paid. I can't imagine turning and burning more than 1 every 1.5-2 hours or so. $450-$600 for a day's worth of work seems a little light....

 

YEP!

 

Being that you provided so much information about the work you were offered, I am sure you will be initiated with responses

 

The players in this work are firmly established. Somebody is looking to get in thinking they see a fast easy buck.

 

That's my read on it. I've had a few folks over the years ask me to quote them for dumps. "Don't know it. I'll ask." I ask, and people clam up, or are so tied up with work that they won't get to it.

Thus, I do not run dumps, and have no real interest in it.

 

Don’t dumps measured in yards?

 

Or tons

 

What have i been saying guys, nicely. This gig sucks, cut and run.

First no highway "something something", I was born there, no highway your in the fringin marsh! So that statement is out.

 

Is this in a 80,000 lb state...?
