    Good. So you know what the loads are really paying? You can use this to your advantage.

    Its not that the address is wrong once you take the load. What they like to do is post the load showning it going to the closest big city. Like if you are going to somewhere in ok they post it as oklahoma city then tell you its really going to. This can add more than a hundred miles on a load if your not careful

    TQL

    They Are A Bunch Of Douchebags There. I Have Dealt With Them Many Times. Low Rates, Want You To Do Extra Work For Free. I Was Sick As Hell Last Year, They Called Me When I Was In Chicago To Ask When I Would Be In Miami. How The Hell Was I Supposed To Know When I Would Be In Miami? Anything Can Happen On The Way, They Called My Phone 19 Times Until I Finally Answered And Snapped On Them. Since Then They Have Not Called Me Since.

    They know what they do. They operate like this because of all the ignorant dummies who haul cheap freight. They know they can so they do. Paco Taco in that used beat schneider truck will haul it! And if he wont Mr. ex military and new independent will take it for $1.05 per mile (on bs miles).

    If tql is on the stock market they would be a good company to invest in, but not to haul for.

    There are a ton of ignorant people in trucking. We need to educate them when we can instead of snubbing them..... or just let them go out of business.

    I have hauled for tql for $5 per mile about 2 or 3 times in 7 years(200-300 mile loads). They will pay but its hard to get them to from my experience.

    Whether we pilot the truck or the computer we are playing tug of war with the all-mighty dollar in the name of greed. So who is better than who...?
    Ill admit im one greedy sob o/o

    As a matter of fact they are much worse than other brokers. From planning down to pay. They gave me a load once with 4 drops all at least an hour drive inbetween, scheduled 2 hours apart. All of them, I got stuck on that load for 4 days!!! Because they wouldn't call and schedule them properly. Saying that it was done and every single one of them turned me away saying it wasn't. Ended up having to move the freight in and out to change the order twice, besides losing 4 days of running. Every load has been that messed up with them.

    TQL is not that bad I have gotten some 5K-6K load of produce from them. You have to catch them where they need you. If you haul cheap one time you will never get a good rate again

    I just hauled $2 a mile from keene ND (yes ND) to philly, step deck freight. 20k 20' by 8' by 10' tall. awesome freight. I have always had good experiences. I dont trust them, but I dont trust any broker, and we are primarily open deck. Ive heard they van guys are pretty bad.

    just like ANY BROKER on the board even landstar, they have a lot of junk, its dispatch job to weed thru it.
    dont haul it if you dont like it. I turn down 100 for every 1 we haul. figure it out guys.
