What are your rates on reefers guys?

Atlanta you should be getting no less than 2400 right now

And Dallas just a bit dry out there so I'd say 1400isg

These rates are past 30 days.


Not bad rates either way though with national average for reefers being 1.88

 

I got 2600 to ATL but had two loads go south on me from ATL and lost a day. Then it was all garbage. Getting some decent runs right now FL to IL and back.

 

Florida outbound reefer rates are definitely getting better I was down there last week (and the week before) and booked an OK rate $1,200 on a 585 loaded miles multi-stopper from Jacksonville that finalled out in northern AL. It's getting difficult to get that solid rate going down there though. The flip flop is on.

 

I have a run every week that picks up in Gaffney SC has 4 stops; Athens Ga, Fairburn, GA and 2 in Cordele, GA the next day. -1° load. 471 miles total. Pays $1400. I have another one I do on the reg from Mt. Crawford, VA to Salisbury, NC that pays $550. 244 miles. +35° Load. I'm finding the regional loads pay a lot better and I've weeded out more and more the ones that I get jerked around all day on.

 

Must have been multi drop

 

It was multiple stops. Thankfully it went smoothly. Those seem to be the only loads paying half assed decent for now. Things haven't just broke loose fast and furious with trucks disappeared everywhere just yet. I wasn't really excited about booking this one but the revenue worked well with the week I ended up having and it did set me back up nicely so a win there anyways.

 

Must hVe been a Tyson load lol.

 

Florida produce is almost here. Rates will be in high twos for reefers. After produce turkeys ship and after turkeys holliday demand goes crazy.


Def good time to be a reefer driver.

I can't wait to leave brokerage and open up reefer trucks.

 

No it was a frozen load. Seafood actually. Imported from all over the world. Even had some of that nasty Chinese farmed stuff. Lobster tails from the USA. Had some Canada snow crab legs too. I love some crab legs but it's not like you can just grab up a box right? I was a little concerned about possible theft during unloading but it never happened and everything was all there in good order.
