I highly recommend going after the responsible truck. It doesn't sound like the location was the problem and that other trucker must have thought...
Did the responsible party take care of it? That really sucks, I'm sorry.
The truck that caused damage to your trailer would be at fault. Was this a shipper/receiver that required you to leave your trailer there until...
That makes sense. I guess I just never really thought about it because it's never happened with one of my carriers before.
Oh yeah, I definitely agree it's on the carrier. But I don't want to drop this in my customer's lap without helping as much as I can from my end...
Hello, all. I was wondering if anyone could tell me why a freight brokerage wouldn't handle a liability claim. I tried Googling it but couldn't...
It's really sad that you all seem to think what I do is the "bottom of the barrel". I'm going to flip this around and show you how absurd this...
Sir, I know the carrier side of this. My husband was an owner op for years. I've sat in the truck with him on trips. And saying carriers won't do...
I think you're missing the point. They were explicitly told the trailer had to be delivered during business hours. There is no way for me to get a...
No, you're correct. There's just a lot of misunderstanding in the comments I think
You seem to think poorly of brokers. I'm sorry if you had a bad experience with someone in the past.
Thank you! This is what I've been trying to say. You understand exactly what this is. And oh man, I hope the carrier doesn't try anything funny...
Well everyone, we can agree to disagree on the rate, etc. I have carriers that will not take load outs for the reasons you've said and I have a...
I've worked with this customer for years moving empty trailers, but load outs and tow aways. We have nothing to do with the freight the carrier...
The trailer is to be delivered empty as they picked it up empty. I'm not privy to what the customer loads in their trailers once it's in their...
I don't think you're very familiar with load out trailers and how that all works. The carriers that use load out trailers regularly with any...
Well that's kind of sad. We can't make new relationships if we don't try new companies, in the hopes of growing our businesses. I have carriers I...
Ooh that's a big no-no! He was trying to make extra money when he knew he wasn't allowed to load it. Shame on him (although he acted shameless...
It's not something the customer wants to do at this time because the trailer is currently just 1 day late. If they stopped responding to me and...
$1200 would be way too cheap on 1300 miles if the trailer could not be used and I wouldn't even bother posting it. I think you're thinking of this...
