No.................

Yes, but most of it gets put onto a platform trailer instead. No joke, I've hauled some spot bid stuff that the shipper took it out of a trailer and put it onto mine. I've also see specialized trailers being hauled on RGN's
Why don't you try Trailer Transit. They are located in Indiana and do only power only moves. All kinds of equipment -
Why power only? If you need a trailer lease to a company while you build the funds (percentage only).

Your boss should be getting at least a phone call and a couple emails each week from JBH. PM me with an email address and I'll forward you a sample to see why this isn't a good idea.
In other news, yesterday I got a PO offer (and had a truck available) to shuttle loads of bottled water or some such hurricane-related crap to north FL. It paid ok, but he was sketchy on the schedule for trailer drop. I was envisioning a cluster-f of 100s of trucks lining up at a terminal looking for a spot. Kinda glad that one didn't pan out. -
Odds are it was LS calling. Unless they lost the FEMA account after the boofed the pooch during Ketrina.

Nope. It was the broker who's first name is Wile E. and unsuccessfully chased after that fast desert-dwelling bird in the cartoons. Also got another call just now from a different one. Delivery point has moved from JAX to Tampa, since the forecast changed a little. Probably double-brokered coff*coff* I mean outsourced LS loads if that's who really had them.

I have seen power only entries on the landstar broker board as well as the schneider load board. If I remember correctly, on the schneider board, the power only freight was marked with an orange trailer, and sometimes preloaded. Schneider had wording for this built into the new carrier packet contract.
