South Florida Freight

In Miami if you have a reffer, get hooked up in the flower market. There’s money to be made there. Other than that i got nothing

 

i'm talking about flatbed. we stop moving a van that we have due to horrible rates

 

Theres lots of freight coming from Lakeland. Or if you're further south, belglade has all that sugar but you'd have to brokerage those through JB HUNT. I usually just deadhead to Jacksonville to get something out.

 

Is this drop&hook for you?

 

Years ago I used to get a load motorcycle doors. However, it did not pay well. I will see if I can find the number for you.

 

South FL is even worse than central FL. You'd have to deadhead out even more miles

 

No, I have a dry van. I live load.

 

Motorcycles have doors? Is that like blinker fluid?

 

Hopefully you learned a valuable lesson.

1800 on 800 miles is a terrible rate into Florida. I run down there regularly for 2 different shippers. Never under 3.00 per mile. 3.80- 4.00 if it's south Florida.

 

@86scotty yes, South florida is a major producer of Blinker fluid, Sailboat fuel, Motorcycle doors, and Dispatcher brains.

The rate as i remember weren’t horrible, of course the sailboat fuel had the best rates back then. Sailboat fuel was a home run, get a load at $3.5-$4/mi heading in and upwards of $4/mi going back out.
