Something to be aware of with partials and brokers. The shipper will book a truck load, the broker looks at the dimensions and will put it on load board as a partial. You put other partials with it the shipper wants you to deliver it by a specific date and you tell them that ain't going to happen because you ain't going to run halfway across the country then come back and do the other stops, so ain't nobody happy.

That's why when I'm brokering partials, I'm very clear that there's a sliding window for both pick up and delivery. It's like the old saw. "You can have it quick, cheap, or good. Pick any two."
