    I know the percentage is higher for flatbed but are there additional fees for blocking, strapping, tarping etc?

    Well dogcatcher I certainly appreciate your candor. As to the work, it's not a problem just want to know if you get compensated well for it. Also on the 98 I came to the same conclusion. Thanks

    This is where you have to be careful of the word INCLUSIVE! Most of the time you get paid well for tarping or ramp fees ect. but alot of the agents like to say its part of the job... BS Alert! If im not getting paid to throw rags its not getting ragged PERIOD! Make sure you get a load confirmation and its all broken down this way you dont get taken. We have a few bad agents here but for the most part there all pretty straight foward
     
    Rogerk Thanks this.

    Gotcha on that. I've heard this on another post. There's always a few. But that seems to be a good heads up. Thanks
