Car Hauling Dispatch

Central Dispatch has a monoply on auto transport load boards. Others have tried but its still the same ol freight

 

Thanks. Hope you have a happy and prosperous new year as well.

I agree, I just don't see a way to make a viable load board if you don't have unique freight. With RAT and others dispatching more and more of their loads from their own boards, maybe that is the start of a new way to operate. Maybe that will develop a need for a program that lets you see and sort loads from all of the boards a carrier is qualified on. I would be interested in being involved with developing a system like that.

 

Rat called me 3 times today to move cars, but I couldn't help them. I also have a Broker biz and we have been calling our regulars before posting on Central. My CD bill was $300 this month.

We are a carrier and broker and dispatcher so we pay for lots of extras. We post 100 cars a week and we get a whole bunch of notifications.

This is exactly why my car hauler is parked! We hauled from So Cal to Texas for three years solid and loved it. We had a minium of $400 per position to the truck. We also charged for terminals on our POV's because trying to get a big car hauler in residential neighborhoods is ridiculous. So cars going from so cal to texas on average were paying $625 for POV's and $400 for auction and dealer freight. All was good with the world. Until the rate cutting basta@#s came along. Then of course everyone on central started going cheaper and cheaper. Where will it end?

 

is your car hauler still parked or are you moving cars again to texas Mr and Mrs pete
