    They never do and never will. Killer is they will send you somewhere for their customer without having a plan to get you back in their lanes.

    Last Monday, I delivered in Downington, PA, and sat for 3 hrs before being offered a load to N. Dakota that I turned down... Finally, they sent me a load that picked up on Tuesday in New Castle, DE...

    Distance-wise you got lucky but sitting for a day isn't cool especially since they call for updates to know when you'll be empty. I told them often you need to find me loads the day before. All I ever heard was we try. I pulled my truck from them yesterday.

    I was still able to get home on Thursdays because most of the time, I was heading up to PA or NJ.. Seems like their frieght base was mostly brokered loads..

    They are no different than all the other flatbed outfits around Birmingham/tuscAloosa. They have plenty of outbound loads during flatbed season. They nothing or cheap garbage to haul back. They want you back to haul their outbound loads for their local customers. And they don't care if you come back empty. Doesn't cost them anything
