Any Owner Operators willing to let me pick their brain?

See we are always learning here!

So...now...that is a $4000.00 lane for me as well!

Or at least $3k....why not!?

 

Also Emmett understand that right now is the hottest market trucking has seen in modern history. This time last year you probably could have moved it on a dedicated to you truck for that amount. It’s a supply and demand thing. Right now demand outweighs supply by a good margin.

 

Variety!

 

I have been contacted by a few shippers from the load boards no doubt! I don't mind either way. I really just don't like doing the same stuff...as close to ever as possible.

 

Sure it could and does. But IMO it is best to kick back and be contacted for a load that needs to go and those are the loads with the best rates.

I don't do shipping wars.

 

The loads on load boards are posted by brokers 99.999999% of the time. Shippers call brokers, and brokers call us. It is difficult for you to find a trucker to haul your backhoe. Needle in a haystack. Or you can call TQL, and they can handle everything for you. Then they will post your equipment on a load board, and a trucker will see it, call them, and negotiate a rate. Then your stuff gets moved, and you only had to make one call.
