    Never worked with either company but I've read the threads.
    Mercer is better for flatbed freight. Land star is better for Van. That seems to be the general idea of things.

    Also with mercer you can buy your trailer from them. Payments are about $500 and it seems like a pretty good deal.
     
    PGALLC Thanks this.

    When asking anyone about what the going rates are, understand that you are asking that person for the combination to their safe, or the password to their online bank account. You absolutely need to know what your costs are going to be and how much profit you need in order to find the rate that YOU need. You will never get a straight answer when asking your competition what the going rates are.

    You young, good... Get the money, retire early.... Look into Mercer, if you wanna go flat or step, in the top right corner of your screen under the search type in Mercer...

    How did you get started so young?

    No disrespect from your posts I take a little gamble, you got some Foreign in you?
     
    PGALLC Thanks this.
