    Own auth or leased? There's a bunch of better companies in Scranton-binghamton area you can lease on to pulling vans and still be home daily

    Yep they stay within 250mi or so of Binghamton. Kick your load off and come back empty to pick up your load for the next day. They pay tolls also. My dad was leased to them for 15 years. Probably the best place around here if you like being home daily. They don't run cheap freight either

    Most of their freight comes out of Binghamton going to jersey/Philly/mass

    Everything I read and hear, until June, it's going to be brutal. We've got a bunch of grain and other export that is not Asia dependent, or going to parts of Asia that are not as highly restricted, but inbounds have dramatically dropped off.
