    Hi, Looking for info on how to find a trucking company to haul hay for us, tried the phone books, but wondering if there is a board to post loads on something of that type on the internet? Thank you.

    We have several loads of round bales in south TX and one in Arkansas, we are located in central TX and need them hauled. Wondering how to find someone to do it? We will be needing more hauled in over the next few months also.

    Thank you. I did put it on Uship, but haven't received any quotes. Is there any where else I can post it?

    Nice light loads.

    Just don't use a driver that smokes and is used to throwing his butts out of the window.
    Make sure they tarp the load or they are a real fire risk.

    Thank you I will try getloaded.com and will also take the advice about a non-smoker! I didn't even think of that! :)

    When is the last time you hauled a load of light hay? Pull away from the dock and close your doors and leave the flatbedding to those that know whats going on.

    Only ever hauled flats and lowboy trailers.
    Just closing doors seems like a good way to do this.
