Picked up a load of paper coming out of the house this morning - 0 empty (loaded next door to where I park the truck) 240 loaded miles for $725. Picking up dry goods tomorrow, 25 empty, 175 loaded miles for $950.
Rates maybe looking a little better...

BigBadBill, bullhaulerswife, HwyPrsnr and 1 other person Thank this. -
Sounds like RGN rates...
-
Right now it's actually pretty good but it's always good during holiday season. Unfortunately, freight slows down and fuel goes up after the 24th of dec. But hey who knows hopefully that trend will change from the last six years.

Not bad at all... that's how you get it done with a dry van.. Short haul is where the money's at...
windsmith Thanks this. -
Quick question - doing short haul loads, if one wanted to pick up a load, say, in Ohio, and it delivers in Ohio, do you have to have an Ohio Intrastate authority, or is your interstate authority good for that? I'd have my truck registered in MI, and I'm getting confused over this hauling within a state rule. Same thing with Indiana, or MI, I'm just not sure? Would I have to go around getting intrastate permits in every single state I want to haul within?
thx -
Mine is with a skateboard!!!!
-
Depends on the state, each state is different. Your Interstate Authority does not cover Intrastate.
-
Some states yes,some no. Ohio needs a PUCO permit. You can get it for just one load.
-
And some states enforce it while others don't care. Then to confuse things. Some states "require" it but you then learn it is only if you have operations in that state.
And good luck finding the info in one place. It seems like it is always changing.
