    Hey guys,
    I was wondering if anybody has done hourly work with drop trailers. I have 10 dry van trailers and 1 tractor. It is all local work in Milwaukee usually 10-11 hours a day. What would be a good hourly rate for this much equipment?? I want to be fair but it is a lot of equipment. Any advice would help. Thank you

    I have found that a day rate is better, or per move. If you look at the load boards local. Rates are better than OTR,

    $500 per business day for the 10 trailers and $1250 per business day for the truck and driver. So $8750 per week.

    My one truck with one flatbed is $115 an hour when I was doing it a few years ago, 4hrs to show up, anything over 4 was 8, the trailers would have to figure out a daily rate. Would think hourly would be a smidge more at this point in time too
