Bulk IC switching to Van choice!

Schneider is running a businesses too so when they expand they expand their customer base.
They just recently got these new P&G accounts with a crazy amount of loads.
Last week I pulled a Target trailer and found out that's a new customer.
Schneider puts broker loads on the board too, I remember doing a load that said CH Robinson on that paper work.

 

I pulled the second load out of the new P&G here. Been hearing the promises of all the great freight that was to come for the past 7 months.

"We need to expand our capacity in order to attract more business, once we do the freight will come rolling in...." This crap line has been around the freight business longer than trucks have been on the road.

You just go ahead and keep bleeding orange, you'll figure out one day how much of what they say is spin to make the gullible feel good about their misery.

 

Dunno about you but I'm talking about the Dayton, Ohio P&G plant.
Loads out of there have been endless.

 

There already aren't....

Look at the Solo Map on Crossroads...

Every area is undersold, which means less loads...

But then we can tell that by looking at the load board can't we?..

Roll on...

 

There have been less loads overall lately, I've seen other threads from O/Os saying the same lately.

 

Not only less loads but I'll give an example.

7-6-15
Laredo to Tn 2279.00
7-13-15
Laredo to Tn 1815.00
7-20-15
Laredo to Tn 1564.00

Exact same loads same delivery weight ETC.

Same FSC. Rate changed 700 dollars in 2 weeks don't tell me the rates are contract.

Or SNI just cuts our end of the rates.

 

Was that the same Shipper and Receiver?
Not all loads are contract. I remember doing an Aurora, IL to New Berlin, WI load for $5 a mile. The next week I saw the same exact load for $3 a mile.

There's a P&G load out of Vandalia, Ohio to Bedford, PA that pays about $2.30.
Must have done that load 5-6 times in the past few months and that rate always stayed the same.

I did a Atlanta, GA to Lebanon, TN run a couple times during winter that paid a little over $2 and I still see that exact same load all the time on the board paying the same.

Just depends I guess.

 

Same cross border we've been doing these loads about 6 a week for last month.

I've been here a long time and know how it works

 

Same exact load same weight same pick up and delivery.

 

I know because I've Actually done these loads. Well the 1st 2 weeks. I passed on 3rd week because rates too low.
