    I am leased to a company that offers mileage pay and percentage. If I run mileage it pays $1.05 per mile plus FSC. All miles are paid, Percentage is 67% plus FSC, no deadhead miles. The loads going into Florida pay good, but coming out are Juice loads that are low paying. I can't seem to figure out if the deadhead pay would balance out the good paying loads against the mileage ........Quandry

    $1.05!!!!!! i guess you just as well try the percentage can't be much worse then $1.05. What exactly do you consider the good paying loads they have?

    I know $1.05 is low,BUT, it is for ALL miles, even when I come home. It has been a while since I ran percentage for this company, but if I remember they were running $1.93 cpm. All our runs from the north go to Florida, and those juice loads coming out are cheap loads around $1.00 cpm. So you are looking at $1.46 for a round per mile, with no D/H miles

    You need to find a new company! But hey if your happy with them carry on. So at 67% and $1.93 headed south puts your percentage at like $1.29 and your load back out of Florida at 67 cents. Not being rude but I don't see why your happy with any of this ALL miles so what. There's a lot better options out there. Get your own numbers and run on your own

    LMB. Have you even looked at other options? Is this a lease purchase? Is your truck financed threw your carrier?

    I own my truck. I like running for this company due to the fact, that I live in North Carolina, and 99% of my runs are NC to FL and back. I am going to look into hauling containers out of the Wilmington, NC port

    Hey if it's working for you carry on. Wasn't trying to be rude or negative. But I can't help but say you are probably in one of the only situations that pulling cans might actually pay more! Seriously tho if your happy with the $ and the run and the work just carry on who cares what anybody thinks if it's working for you?
