    I work for a company that is taking 27% of my gross for the dispatch fee and because I pull one of their trailers. I do flatdeck work, tridem.

    Most of the freight is low paying so I suspect that they are using Loadlink or finding loads some other way.

    Does anyone on here want to split the monthly cost of Loadlink? I use a VPN so that they won't be able to see my ISP address but I'm willing to split the cost of Loadlink with someone 50/50.

    Finally, does anyone here using the board know what the average broker takes as commission?

    Thanks, RB

    Yes. I found out that they have a Canada Only Gold Plan for $350 a month. I don't have my own trailer so I just want to try it for a month and see what kind of loads and the what the average pay rates are. Please PM me if this sounds OK.

    You ever think about just running power only under your own authority for a while and building up the capitol to get your own trailer? Especially with all this Covid-19 crap going around there are a lot of good opportunities out there

    RB has a 5 day sale coming up at the end of the month in Edm. Those trailers are gonna be selling for less then scrap price I'd guess. Power only always seemed like a hard market to get into with a direct shipper

    I just checked RB and it looks like the end of April auction is just a Real Estate auction, am I seeing this wrong?

    I'd be willing to chip in for a month or 2 access to check it out. I'd like to see what's what before buying a trailer and getting my own numbers. Tired of my dispatch.

    Hi,

    Are you still looking to split the cost of Loadlink?
