Going to roadrunner lease purchase, need help , in milwaukee wi.

how can anybody answer your question of "Is that a good run to make $" when you don't provide any the details?
How much per mile does that run pay? What is the cost of the lease etc etc.

 

your plan is ok except for going into fl the terminal is in Miami and pays nothing if they have a load. go Dallas to Atlanta and then from there anywhere but Florida, also most loads are 2 stops so that can divert you.

 

My hubby is looking to join RR team...Hes looking to do T2T Drop and Hook. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Is good place to work or no? Thanks in advance!

 

I usually just read here but noticed this thread so decided to create an account to respond. Roadrunner is the greatest company out there. Hands down. No forced dispatch, no touch freight, you are asked where you want to go and if they can't get you there, they will tell u where they can get u and u decide if u want to take a load or not. You can take any amount of time off that u want and nobody will say a word about it, however, u will still have the lease payment and trailer payment (xtra lease) coming out every week. I can tell u anything u want to know about them. Even though, they terminated me, I will still go back to them if they will hire me back once my record is cleared up because they r simply the best. T2T is great but just remember, there will be stops on some of the runs and some of the runs might have what they call a "direct" which is usually a pain in the ##### because u go to the terminal, unload and then go deliver somewhere else. For example, Charlotte to Livermore, CA (Terminal) and then 2 directs in downtown SF. Like I said though, u don't have to accept those and really u don't have to accept loads with "stops" on them either but they are no big deal because u will finalize at the terminal and can get another load. 1 more thing, Sumner, WA (Seattle) is always available out of any terminal, anything else is hit or miss because they have a lot of people that have been there for a very long time and usually dedicated on a certain run. LA to Milwaukee is a run that is usually available. I worked there from May 2011 to December 2012 and then they had to let me go because I didn't learn after 1 speeding violation to slow down and I got a 15 or more. I wish I would've gotten my truck turned back to 72 and I would still be employed there but oh well, maybe they will take me back after 3 years.

 

Thanks stop much for reply. I sent you PM if your able to get them.

 

Is T2T? I am trying to decide on their intermodal out of Houston or should I go Flatbed with them if I can. I have been excepted with their intermodal. But not pleased in what I am hearing about the money per week $1000 to $1500 per week. Any info on revenue with RRTS in Intermodal or OTR.

 

Have you checked into the Schneider Choice program? They do not use driver managers or dispatchers; you arrange and schedule your own loads through their load board. Check them out. This is a good thread to read, follow,mand ask your questions: http://www.thetruckersreport.com/tr...om-awaits-you.html?highlight=Schneider+choice

 

Choice sounds like every other lease deal at a huge company, only difference is picking your loads... But at 65% for dry Van is far from good.
