Dry van freight out west

If you want to set up an account for an annual permit and file monthly they want a bond to be posted. If you don’t go there much all you need is a trip permit and you’ll just pay your miles up front.

 

I believe there is a limit on how many permits you can get before they make you get an account. Not exactly sure anymore since there are a couple odd States with permitting. I had month where I had to give them a thousand bucks for driving through.

 

Why would anyone in their right mind wanna fool with this?



That is 18 - 1/2 feet deep. That's more than a Crete driver standing on the trailer.

That's just west of Old Fujnuts Summit on US 20, in between avalanches.

You should have seen the truck parts stuck in the snow at the top. And it was only about 1-1/2 lane wide, so don't know what would have happened if someone coming the other way. Not much brains to do this.



This how deep it is where you unchain. There's no dirt berm there, that's snow. This is the not much snow part.

 

Right now the rates are pretty good running from LA up to Portland and Seattle on the I-5. Lots of reefer loads, but I've seen a number of dry van that were $3 on the Convoy app. I've also seen a number of loads out of Washington State heading to the northern Midwest and also down to Texas that are maybe $2+ a mile. If you could get a decent load to LA, you can do a big loop and wind up someplace not to far from a load that could get you back home after a week or two. If you do wind up going to Seattle, don't try to park in or near the city. An hour and a half south there is plenty of parking and you get up early and head in before the traffic gets bad. Also the best time around Portland is very early morning or late evening. Otherwise the traffic really sucks.

 

I got one for you. A lumber broker sent me a HOT lead this morning! 45k lbs.

I know you said you'll be in the Seattle area. This load is only 320 miles from Seattle in Kettle City, WA. It goes to San Diego, CA which is only 1,360 miles loaded miles.

So, let's see, that's 1,680 ALL miles, just think of all those miles you can get in!

Oh, wait...what's the rate, you ask?

$1,400.00 FREAKING DOLLARS!

Your path to millions is waiting for you!

 

P.S. if you'd like her number, just PM me.

Love, Scooter.
