    TQL did $3.6B in the same time frame/ so they must be even better to deal with?

    As long as it's not a tanker or a dump.

    easy problem to solve, buy your own trailer, don’t go to Laredo.

    Go for it, you need your own authority and trailer.
    TQL is the finest brokerage on the planet, or so the rumor is

    I have a LS friend out of north florida and he claims he was running melons out of the local port and didnt leave his house for less than $3.25 a mile. He is running containers as a power only operator. He said he put in for a trailer last October and has yet to get a call about one...LOL

    If you get your own trailer LS pays 7% more I think was the deal. You can even put your own trailer in LS pool and get the 7% more pay then pull company trailer and still do the drop and hook loads ! I had friend at LS, he bought his own trailer for the extra pay. He even got lift gate installed. He made a little more then me pulling LS trailer. He might be doing better today because rates so high.

    LS has some crane van trailers. They had two agents that did elevators. Once empty you had find load back that you could fit in the crane trailers. It looked pretty simple
