Thanks I appreciate all the info would mind looking c what u see coming into arkansas around memphis.batesville littlerock area im about hour from.memphis or lr
I was thinking i could run short runs all week then on the weekends i dont go home get me like a 1000-1500 miler on friday to keep me driving all weekend to deliver on mondays.
go look on some of the free loadboards an do your homework. you can see where all the freight is moving.
One thing I don't like about the malone load board, I can't put in a destination and see what loads are going there unless I put in an origin. I'd love to know what loads go to central PA so I have an idea where I should head. It took me a month and a half to find regular loads that go near my home coming out of NC.
when i search loads i dont put a destination unlesss i want to go somewhere specific an that will only be charlotte,nc everyother weekend.
Yeah, me neither. But living in a low freight area like I do it would be nice to search for loads going to my area from anywhere then contact those agents to see if it's regular freight then I can plan my trips better to get me home.
Hey gravdigr, what are the loads off the crst board paying you. I am thinking of putting my truck on there Monday. I know what other boards pay. I have ran my own authority for two years but last month I had a driver not tarp a keep dry load and it got rained on then an other had an accident so I lost my insurance.
You are mostly right. But nI have ran my own authority for two years now and have never waited more than 30 days for my money and that is only from some brokers. The longest I have wqaited from direct shippers is two weeks,
i just got my truck assignment today. its a 2010 Columbia here in Birmingham. Now if I can actually get thru with the securement training tomorrow I might actually get my trailer and a load home.
Home? Already? LOL, J/J....... Let me know how things go. I'm really considering going over there. I'd also like to know how much are CRST drivers are averaging (NET) per mile.
