    37 miles for $125, 113 miles for $225. Flatbed loads, and to think some sorry ### will take the loads, I'm sorry but that offends me 37 miles for $125. Would have better luck just trying to get it moved for free!

    That is crazy!! Hang on another month or two, the ball will be in your court for flats. At least it should be from mid March until October/November.

    I have own loads. I look constantly on load board. Mostly for fun but certain times I am slow and have to use that board. Glad I'm not having to at the moment. Haven't used board in 2 months.

    Every year, when February comes, people come here and start complaining about brokers and/or rates. It's the beginning of tax season, relax and wait for it to be over

    Spot Market rates have seen a bit of a climb, contact rates are about the same over past months

    Flatbed Rate Drops 13¢
