I believe I had to pay the fine and watch the exciting safety videos
You are correct. Few weeks ago I took a load from VA to IN for $1000 on 730 miles. Then I had about 260 DH, so the broker was really nervous and...
Forgot to mention. Only work for carriers who will email you a rate confirmation for EVERY LOAD without you having to ask. If they don't show you...
They probably average close to $2/mile and give you $1.05. I wouldn't do it. If they're paying you fixed per mile then they're more inclined to...

You mean if you cancel the load because you found a better rate?
They can also make that pulling a dry van. And yes it's pretty horrible for a car hauler.

I've done a bunch of apple loads from West Michigan and once from Upstats NY. All palletized at 35-36 continuous. Usually delivered to Walmart DC....

What is your average gross each month?
I've done a few loads for Nolan and there were no problems.
I think it can be done if: 1. You have all your expenses figured out, and these estimates have to be accurate - both fixed costs like...
Their main office is, but it seems like they have offices all over the country. I've dealt with one from Charleston, SC. Some of their brokers are...
Does anyone know if a glider can be considered pre-2000 to be exempt? Or can I just buy an old engine, rebuild it and put in my 2013 Cascadia?
These clowns are trained to lowball. They usually come up 200-300 (on 1000 offer) if they get desperate enough.
When you eat on the road that's part of your logbook deduction - $63/day.
You can get 2.00-2.50 going East, and probably 1.00-1.20 going back.
