Questions on flatbedding

You won't like winter! Weather sucks and rates go down.

 

I wouldn't even get out of bed for that rate...

Not in my world...

 

Hey blackW900 what is the lowest you will accept a load at?

Come on now the snow is an awesome thing and rain psh thats why we have gore tex and rubber rain pants.

 

Not less than $2.00 a mile and lately I've been in the $2.50 to $3.00 range.


If they offer less...I'll sit and wait for something better and usually they will call me back a little later and meet my rate.

I have been doing flatbeds for 3.5 months now. I am with Maverick and they are excellent. I would not recommend learning from a book. I would get someone to show you the proper way. Way to serious to take lightly.
