Blind Shippment

Anyone have any clue how the brokers are charging the "customers" for shippment that are blind?
Like if I pick up a shippment out of GA going to PA, but the blind shippment says its to show the customer that it came out of TX. Really? Like it makes you wonder what the charges are for the shippment, miles and anything else.

Any what about double blind shippments, now your to pick up something and make up a fake location where its going to, then when you deliver it make up another fake location where you got it from. Anyone see the trouble from this? And how much money is wrapped up into that?

 

dude, the common practice of a customer getting supplied by someone else that makes the same stuff, do you think the shipping rate is the same as it would have been from the normal shipper? and honestly if you don't care to know what in the deal then how do you know your getting a fair deal. just being quiet and getting the job done is what company drivers do.

 

I noticed that there is a lot of people on here that think just that. Does anyone ever buy anything without wondering how much it cost? Do you ever get anything fixed on your truck without wondering how much it will cost or do you just say, Oh I have enough money to pay for this, who cares how much money the shop is charging me for this repair.

I don't know, but for some strange reason there is a whole lot of people on here that don't have a care in the world what the shipping rate is being charge.

Like if I pick up a machine for example that needs to be moved that can save the world from distruction, and the broker says its paying 1.80 per mile. Like do you say to your self, ok thats enough money for me.

 

Try this one, ever see a shippment that is paying really well and you wonder why? Its because of something that may have fallen through, like a canceled load or something that put the broker in a bind. I can tell you that brokers do make $4.00 a mile on shippments and pay $2.00 a mile to move it.

 

Sounds like a broker answer.
