Anyone else seeing a slow down at their company

Ltl has slowed dramatically. We’re 7-8 pups going down, 2-3 coming back. The dollar is great for Americans.

 

Yea it sucks, of course now that blood is in the water, Bison, TransX, Heyl and Day and Ross are coming after us HARD! Bison is even dumping a ton of money into LTL, huge cross dock/warehouse at their new terminal in Balzac. Heyl took out IHaul from the Lamb Weston fry contracts, and they’re after our Heater reloads from the US. TransX will do Surrey to LA FTL for $800 all in.

We have some counter attacks tho, and the long time customers have committed to our relationships. But as mentioned above, it’s going to get UGLY!

 

How can you go from surrey to LA for 800? That's 1200 miles and that doesn't even cover the fuel

 

I don't know, but I was in the big boss's office when he laughed and hung-up the phone; so, we don't be doing it.

 

TransX also does Edmonton to Winnipeg for $400. My boss at the time quoted the customer $1200 and they laughed at him and told him about it.

 

#### I wouldn't even waste my time for $1200

 

Thank the bottom feeders. They only have to stay in business for 2 years to get citizenship.
