Indiana pays well, if they are saying cheap freight they are lying
EDIT: pays well from my experiences on flat/step and my needs
Current flatbed rates

I'm working MI-IL area this week. $2.75-3.25 to the truck right now. Not great but not bad either.
spyder7723 Thanks this. -
You have your own authority?

The closest thing to it it without the head aches. He drank the mercer koolaid.77fib77 Thanks this.

Leased onto Mercer?
-
Yes.
Edit to add: and if cj (or any other mercer guy) posts a rate, its to the truck after mercer takes their cut. -
Im talking about otr rates here, regional should pay more cause you might do 200-300I miles a day. I like runs over 1200 miles.
-
I prefer 2 200 mile runs two days in a row for a total of 800 miles at 3 a mile for 2400 vs 1 1200 mile run that takes the same 2 days that pays 1.70/ mile for 2040$.
Less miles, less fuel, more gross and more net.RERM, Tug Toy and ChicagoJohn Thank this. -
Yes I'm with mercer. And those were regional rates. OTR is right at $2 it looks like after their cut. That's on about 1000 miles. Sorry when you said the area I thought you wanted regional rates. Not sure who you are with but I hope that helps. Of course some loads pay better and some much worse.
