We'e done high $ loads, how about low $ loads

I'm not sure of the actual value of the freight, but it was an Amazon load of perhaps a dozen very small boxes.

 

8 cement blocks 2x2x3. Several times even. Every time I hauled them I got $1375 or better. After the first time I pointed out they could have them poured on site and thrown in a dumpster every time they needed them @ cheaper than the freight... they haven't called lately: lol maybe they do that now.

 

A single slot machine in a 53ft dry van from Chicago to Edmonton. Customs papers said it was worth $2,600 (made in China), freight was $4,500.

 

Wow, and I bet they made their money on the machine and freight bill back in a week, don’t ya think?

 

Yup. N I was doing it with a 10 wheeler to boot.

 

We hauled some dirt from a construction site to a farmer's stockpile.
The dirt was free. The trucking cost seventy dollars a load.

 

I don’t haul it, but chicken litter is free and those guys make a pretty penny hauling it for farmers since it has high ammonia content. It saves them a fortune instead of buying 25 tons of fertilitizer so the farmers pay well to bring it in.

 

Mine was likely a negative value. Picked up a trailer load of rejected latex gloves from the manufacture and took it to a landfill.
