    If you don't like to sit or deadhead alot.. Heavy haulin won't be it for you. You might be better off with CR England or some van company, or legal flatbed loads. Some people have a high.. Go,go,go attitude.. Some have a lower speed of getter done, when we get there. That's most heavy haul guys.. Most of the time no deadline, but just keep in contact with the receiver.

    the trailers is built to take the weight. I talked to murray trailers once.. Asked him when the trailer would break.. He told me that he has seen the arch touch the ground and not hurt the trailer. I pulled a 9 and 10 axle..never had any mechanical failures.. But never went off the pavement when it was muddy. My empty weight was 76,000 lbs. and before that had a seven axle.. 44500 empty. The big word is look at the big picture.. And not today's pay, but the monthly or yearly. You get some good.. And some bad. As for Daileys trailers look at the CSA score.. They can't be in that bad of a shape. Or they would be out of business.

    You might leave your trailer at home. Some of the time they might not be able to find freight for your trailer, but might if you had a different type.if company trailer, they would have you drop one and pick up one thats more specific for the job. Just some thing to think about. Now big rumor going around..if one truck is not California legal, no trucks in the fleet can be licensed for California. Unfortunately they have freight leaving and going in the state.like I said just a rumor..

    Been talking to daily for a while now to pull a tr-axle. I'm just worried there wont be enough money in it. I like to clear 2k + every week. Still trying to decide what to do.

    Well the saga ends anyone asking about daily,after my exp. with them is #### #### #### they are all full of it.
    1 there is no money to be made at a rate of 60.5 %
    2 the load coord. are so over worked they cant make good booking decis.
    3 the safety woman daily employs is an absolute #####
    4 after starting with them in march hauling dirt cheap freight hauling heavy and hoping it would change it did they let me go saying someone called in on me saying I was driving eratic weaving in and out of traffic on I459 in AL
    To Date I had no claims tickets or anything else and stuck it out with the junky ### trailers they had me pull
    all I got was a lot of wear and tear and left with nothing!
    Daily express out of Carlisle did me a favor I suppose after half a year being broker than I was when I started that says a lot so anyone looking to sign on think long and hard about it because youll be sorry

    Thats pretty much what I thought. I just quit at ATS for a lot of the same reasons. Never made over 1600. I did better pulling a dry van at a set mileage rate...
