Landstar Questions

If load requires a lumper, agents will include it in accessory pay or tell them to add money to fuel surcharge out of line haul.

 

but those are numbers before landstar's 35% cut and that's INCLUDING FSC... decent load but I can do better going into Atlanta

 

Yeah with the 35% cut those are still decent rates there is better and worse out there

 

Dog catcher I preciate the info! Like I said I got a couple of buddies still there and one of them is on the box. He's supposed to keep us updated. I got a lil time before I make a move so just thinking ahead. Y'all have a good one.

 

It sounds to me you got cought up in some ### Hats web of deception. Plenty of agents out there add this one to the do not haul list and move on to the next. Sorry you had such a hard time but it will happen here as anywhere. Good Luck.

 

LUMPERS? What are theses things called Lumpers? How come they are never around or just run away when it comes time to throw rags? Elusive rare beast, endangered from what I hear just a myth....

 

Lol... I've only had one load over here that needed a lumper, it was a $50 charge at Wal Mart. Not a lot of grocery loads over here anyway.

 

I must be doing something wrong I seem to get them alot.

 

Got a question, if your pulling a company van, how does ls know what trailer have, like if you drop and hook and etc?

 

If never dropped n hooked(cuz I've always had own trailer) but I see on the status update area where if you did drop n hook you would update it on your computer...
