    Here is the issue.. the company I work for has a bad MC number ( bad reviews) apparently.. majority of the good brokers will not offer any freight..

    The only good thing is booking my own freight I still manage to make 6-7 gross per week.. however I’m beginning to think that if I had a company with better reviews and the opportunity to book my own freight I will be able to do excellent.. do you know of a company with a good mc number and the opportunity to work the load board?? I have a clean Licence (5y)


    it’s very frustrating when broker hangs up on you.. and you’re not the cause of the situation

    You ever consider just getting your own authority? If you are willing to book your own loads, it makes sense. Just a thought.

    You got enough to pay half a year of insurance and cover fuel for a month?

    I live in Florida and the rates are expensive... I don’t know where to start honestly.. I was thinking of moving however I don’t know if that makes sense
