    Does anyone know of produce/other perishables moving from Michigan to Florida?? I'd like to find something more consistent. Been hauling random product week in and week out like Frozen doughnuts, ice cream, etc...

    If you PM me I know of a company hauling Ice cream for those boat cruises in FL picking up in the Grand Rapids area runs weekly pays real good ($3.00/up). Got to have 10 yr. or newer truck can give you contact name and phone number. Have to have your run back up to Michigan.

    I have the return trip back all year long, but just getting down there has been the chase. Who is your ice cream contact in Grand Rapids? That would be perfect. Brand new reefer unit and brand new tractor (2014 Kenworth T680 and Carrier reefer unit with utility trailer).

    This is relevant to my interests. Would ditching a well paid LTL linehaul job to pay cash for a rig and a reefer box be a good idea out of Central Florida? I would love to find a lane to stick to, something like FL to MI or Chicago and back. Make good cash still be able to have a life. Is this possible or should I stop daydreaming?
     
    Chinatown Thanks this.
