Hopper, Dump O/O's & Drivers

Yeah this week isn't working out so hot. I'm sitting. My broker is on vacation, I got 3 of those local loads but just went to pick one up and they had a loading (electrical) problem and weren't sure when it would be fixed. Had to come back home. They may or may not call tomorrow, but it probably won't matter because Cargill closes at noon and it's 3 hours away. Closed Friday. Grossing $420 this week. That's about -$1k in business land.

But this really is highly unusual and I'll just hit it extra hard next week.

 

Well in that ballpark my trailer is excellent, a 2009, and 35k as well. Very good build quality on the Peerless, and really a good size too for all the meal I haul. I wouldn't be able to get 25 tons in one of those 66" or similar sided trailers. It comes down to the financing. They haven't even called or e-mailed since they said this early last week.

 

Got it through Wilson of Missouri. If you're serious about it, I can give you their number as soon as I hit 50 posts in a day or two, or you can probably find it on the internet.

 

Yes, I've called on a few. Problem is they want to take your number and get back with you. And we all know what that means.

 

Thanks a lot. I'll know how serious I am when I get a straight answer on the one I'm pulling now. Right now I'm just checking my mirrors for an escape strategy in the event of a crisis.

 

I might know of a good used one, the one I pulled last year. He just got it and the truck and didn't like it because it was too long. He likes the short tall trailers. It probably needs a couple tires but everything else on it was good. I dunno if he'll turn loose of it though. I told him I'd keep it as it was a good trailer.

 

Well this is real. I need a trailer. Just got a message to bring it back.

If I can't find anything by Monday I'll have to start heading to Beatrice NE for a trailer.
