Boycott of Metrogistics

anybody who can afford to take on a full load from CD should switch to dry van loads ASAP and make killer money. Dry van will cut your overhead by %35!! Also you will have people that are loading you and unloading you for free
Also most of the manufacturers are located in industrial zones, easy on easy off. If you overweight broker will pay for it. No worries damaging your cargo!! Only time you will get cold is when you fuel. I can go on and on how your life will be easier. And for all other stand up guys who will not fall for a metrologistic crap go for something else and take them down ONE AT THE TIME. They will fall down quicker than we are!!! Just One at the time my brothers

 

Shhhh. Stop telling them that. They don't need to know we get paid to sleep while we're being unloaded. And make more than cars are paying right now.

 

This boycott must be working. I got a call from one of their folks asking if I could help them out. She told me they had a unit to move from ny to michigan for $275 . They have never called us before. At that rate I hope they never do again.
However to be fair I have hauled some pretty nice paying loads for them . One 230 miles right to my local Chevy dealer 9 units $1800. Loaded Friday night dropped Saturday morning, money in the bank 3 days later.

 

You can cherry pick some good loads from them. Problem is that this loads are very rare now.
I have an idea, if you know somebody is retiring and closing down please please tell him to give metrogistic negative rating please please please.
They taking pride in 100% ratings. Hopefully someone will #### them

 

You can't just leave a negative rating because you don't like them lol. There has to be proof of something, and even then it's a week long process before it shows up

 

Brokers at medium to large transport companies are being paid commission of a difference what company gets, what they pay to a transporter. Being structured that way is a guarantee to us that they will never do right thing.
We the owners are falling slowly into a death trap.

 

Glad to tell that i am a long time supporter. Metro is in my block list for at least a year now.

P.s. I was trying to figure out what is the best ratio between brokers and transporters and finally found out the fair answer – the % from the transport rate should be the brokers fee. That would lead to getting the best rates from the customers for the carrier while making more money.
