Ive got my own direct shippers and Im looking to bring some O/O on. I provide trailers and everything, with chargebacks on insurance and plates. Steady year round reefer produce, 75% of the loads are under 40K lbs and Im taking 25% of an average of $8500/wk gross. I guess this seems to be in the ballpark being reefer freight?

These days it's in the ballpark. Might be a bit lower during regular times.

Just went from Landstar to my own authority. This is from Jun 1 until today. Flatbed Conestoga. Returning home to Cleveland, OH every weekend. Last month spend one restart in Fargo, ND (

My gross is 10,000-15,000 a week when I bust ###. And 6,000-10,000 when being a sloth.

You are reaping the rewards of your move. It is interesting that you run with Conestoga. Any time I was playing searches on DAT with different equipment types, I rarely saw anything for Conestoga. But you have outstanding results...much better than Van and the good thing is you are in more specialized freight - one or two layers above the general freight crowd. Good for you!Last edited: Jul 10, 2021

Running curtain side or Conestoga you just get flatbed freightNolelover61, feldsforever, TallJoe and 1 other person Thank this.

Generally it's flatbed freight. No oversize. Sometimes it's Conestoga only. Things you need to transport dry, not possible to tarp and need to unload from the side or with the crane.Midwest Trucker, feldsforever and TallJoe Thank this.

I thought it was more for dedicated freight...
If you search for flatbed freight, do you have to make sure they load conestoga too?feldsforever Thanks this. -
A conestoga is a flatbed , just instead of huffing and puffing trying to throw tarps yourself. You just slide it down a fancy rail system. You can make really good money running machinery and other crap that nobody wants to throw a tarp on.Midwest Trucker, feldsforever and TallJoe Thank this.

No need to tarp but takes more effort to secure?
Anyhow, at this rate you make me feel embarrassed with what I thought was a good time for me....I am like 20 Grand less in the same period with about the same mileage
I want to do Conestoga now!Speed_Drums, D.Tibbitt, Vitkouski and 2 others Thank this.
