    you don't have to have mc# to haul in state,that i know of. i'm making the switch myself to intrastate hauling,but if necessary i'll reactivate my authority.

    I think brokers want an MC # for (among other reasons) is for the safety ratings of the FMCSA, even if you are hauling instate. I also think that most brokers have no clue regarding instate operating authorities since they are all different, its just easier for them to require you to have an MC number.

    Let us know what you find out when you get started.

    I have to agree, 123loadboard.com is winning me over. Getloaded is becoming an ad driven website, half not even related to trucking and the Truckstop.com people are just plain rude.

    I've been looking at loadmax.com , anyone use them?
