you will still be responsible for paying a rental fee on the celadon dry van

 

Was wondering that,lol...THX

 

Hey guys, submitted my application today. Can anyone give me an idea of how long they take to process applications? And just like everyone else, I don't need to hear the boo hoo poor me, stupid you comments from people that couldn't make ELS work for you. I've done a lot of research and followed this form for a while and think I'm ready to try my hand with them. Done lease purchase before, made #### good money even when I was paying for parts or repairs on a truck with 950,000 miles and only averaging 6.2mpg. Run smarter, not harder.

 

What's everyone that has been working for eagle been pulling per mile to the truck? I let boy wonder dm primarily do my loads....guess What? 1.14 a mile after Eagles cut and my dh factored in...and no not a lot of dh....best load I had was 1.27 to the truck and I nabbed that one......so hears my Question? What am I doing wrong....and no I don't have any experience negotiating brokers and knowing lane prices...I don't mind doing but it will take time to develop that coz I'm starting dead newbie at it....do I dump boy wonder? Talk to his boss? Put pressure on him to do better.?..he totally relies on mainly one Chr agent.....an most are heavy....last time I said something to him...he told me to find it myself...well kiss my axx...I don't know how to do that yet and have to run my axx off to make a dime...besides...isn't that his job? Suggestions from eagle drivers currently running now....THX

 

Is expecting 1.50 a mile to the truck asking too much? Seems to my dm it is.....always blames rates or the area or me....like I know the rates in a given area....wtf...I'm frustrated....1.14 a mile....

 

It usually takes a day or so. Trust me they will call you back. I just started and needless the orientation is a little disorganized, but be patient and u will get through it. FYI make sure you are very forthcoming in our app, cause they will check, they will go thru it with a fine tooth comb. If all that is good u should be there no more than 3 day's. Pick ur truck early so that is done. Other than that its good so far,very fair at eagle

 

Monkey yes ur right that's very low to the truck, I'm not sure where ur running,or who's ur DM . u need to talk to someone asap before it gets worst.

 

What did they have available this week for trucks? I know their inventory changes daily but I'm willing to hold out for a truck I want, not what's there at that time.

 

It all depends on what u wanna pull. Flatbed,refer, or van. I know they have 16 lonestars which I got one.I know some guys are getting W9 and peterbilt also have some t680 also

 

Gonna go reefer so I can have the option for dry/vented loads also. Would love to have a W9, but without an APU, no thanks. Pete 579 the#1 choice, T680 second.
