CH Robinson with a daycab?

CH Robinson won't usually ask you what type of truck you have or whether it has a sleeper. They only think they are interested in is if you have authority, sufficient insurance and the right equipment to haul what is needed. They may also look at your safety score. If you have everything else that they need then you can haul their load. FYI, they will require $1 million in auto liability and $100,000 cargo insurance. Some loads could require additional insurance, but that is the minimum insurance they require. Most other brokers require the same coverages.

 

They will take it. We are getting the new guy on the farm his CDL and we have an OLD Mack that we have a load from Champaign to Chicago area that would pay well enough to come back MT. But CHR has loads from Chicago to Danville and they will use us. Only do this 7-10 days a month but should provide enough profit to put the guy in a newer truck.

Just glad it is not me.

 

They will take it. There is usually better $ in the short haul loads than the higher $ loads anyway.

 

I don't remember ever having a broker or shipper ask whether I had a sleeper. I think that most either don't think about it figure that it is your business. You could be asked for motel receipts if you are out far enough from your home base. Other than that I would not be concerned about getting business with a day cab.

 

Not sure about out where your at but around here in the midwest they have tons of short hauls. Most of the short loads pay better than there long stuff also. We use to use them a lot because we had tons of short haul loads going out of here but none coming back. They always had stuff coming back, but , sometimes we'd come back empty because they didn't want to pay enough to make it worth it.
