Guess you would need to know what they were offering on the % side besides an industry ripoff of 60%

Insofar as freight rates go, we are not spot market. We're exclusively contact freight, so regardless of what the market is doing, our rates are consistent.Jarhed1964 Thanks this. -

yeah one of the planners I talk to said that we routinely pull a dollar or less freight out of Florida just to get us moving. which is why they tried to expand the accounts down there and then when we got a good account we promptly service failed the first three loads....Jarhed1964 Thanks this. -

Trailer 7116 dropped at Tyson in emporia Kansas leaking airbag auto air system lines disconnected from the tire rims two bad tires below DOT standards brakes out of adjustment to the point where even when applied you can see a gap on the pads to the hub and a DOT inspection that is 1 month overdue....
I wonder how long it's going to take them to get road service here to fix all that because if they think I'm going to be trying to move this trailer they can go #### themselvesJarhed1964 Thanks this. -

So update on the trailer, I was able to get the frame rails to slide by using a copious amount of spray lube. Then took the trailer 30 miles in the wrong direction to the TA.
apparently the new brake chamber that was installed recently was the incorrect one which was causing it to always be out of adjustment no matter what was done so the trailer needed one airbag two tires (at least) one new brake chamber, DOT inspection.
I'm on hour six at the shop.
This is the third airbag I've had to have replaced in the last 4 trailers. normally I just get them replaced when I take my 10-hour break at a TA or something unless it's like the one I pulled out of Colton which was leaking so bad my compressor could barely keep up that I had to replace it in Barstow in route...
But seeing as I'm going to be going across the Nara truck inspection station in New Mexico and I've been pulled in there twice for a walk around inspections I'm not screwing around... Especially with everything else wrong...Jarhed1964 and MachoCyclone Thank this.
