    Mack, its not all building materials. When I drove for Covenant, I would pick up loads out of the toledo area from Johns Manville (almost always blanket/roll insulation) and none of them paid less than $1.75/mile. Of course, I was a co. driver so I got paid my flat mileage rate. Woo Hoo!
    Matthew, EVERY O/O needs to know when the truck must sit, even if it hurts your pocketbook, you can't make ends meet hauling that cheap crap. And CHR gets a bad name, but trust me, they have plenty of loads that pay around $1.8-$2+/mile. How they distribute them is of course, another story...
