I can not believe what flatbed loads are being offerd for!!!

That was what my impression was.......because you know it'll be a cold day in hell if I run with a 53' trailer 1/2 loaded and 28k on..just sayin

 

I do it also. Usually a tractor with a skid steer or a small excavator. Onlything written out on permits is the peice that is oversize, the mesurements of it/truck and trailer, and type of equipment that is OD/peermitted. We also do that stuff over here Pape. All the time.

 

Hmm 3,400 over 1,200 miles is 2.83 a mile could possibly find 2 $1000 partials going near the quad cities so we can get up to 5400 on we will say 1500 miles, $3.60 on a couple more miles....opens your deadhead miles up a little bit so you don't have to cringe at a 200 miles dh

 

Going into Bettendorf should be a decent place to find a load out of. You have a few JD places close and you also have Alcoa right there in Bettendorf.

 

I have to say I feel like I hit the jackpot Tuesday. Booked a load out of dallas area, waxawachihe going to forty miles below N/O La.
paying 2.01 a mile. 6000 pounds deliver next day and a comchek in a hour, made it home weds. night.
Done deposited money and set to relax till Monday except for a leaky wheel seal.

 

Hey Bayou, were you rollin on 35 northbound this afternoon right at the MO/IA line? Had a big old wooden crate on that step?

 

i wouldve told them $1000 is my offer or atleast $800
