Do you have access to load boards?

I’m fortunate to have 5 direct customers now.

1 of them requires my lowboy and flat both, one reason I don’t trade my flat off.

That particular customer is very big and builds bridges for the state. They have a set price they pay and that’s it. Good thing is, if you set 1 hour or 8 hours waiting to load or unload the $$ keeps flowing like sand through an hour glass.

Needless to say, if a person doesn’t know what it cost per mile to operate the truck, they most likely won’t figure out the rest of it…

Just bid on everything, doesn't matter what it is, at $20/mile.
If nobody else bids a single job, and they need it moved, scoop in and do it.
Heck if you run 5 days a month for the right rate, no complaints.

 

I live in western Canada, but will come down and do it personally for $4,000,000

 

I’ll bid $4,500,000/ and @MartinFromBC will do it personally

 

I'll bid 4,500,001 and Ruthless needs to subcontract through Martin.

 

I'll do $5900 on one of my reefers or broker it to a van guy.

 

That’s exactly what I do
No way I’ll follow the herd and accept what’s being offered. Sure, I sit more than I would really like but when my truck is rolling, I’m smiling.
