mercer transportation

I might have to deadhead out but I'll set awhile before deadhead 1200 miles to houston for less than 2 a mile. Or 650 to Dallas for 1.60 a mile.
I'm not losing much sitting and that is better than working for free.
Bauyo Hotshot, wasn't just couple of weeks ago, you was crying about so cheap freight out of Texas? Well, I'm now I'm there. Last time I was down here, I sit a week and got a premium dollar load out.
That's another good reason for having such a large sleeper, enjoy the area

 

took me 7 days to get to number one in the houston area. fortunatly i am home while waiting and i usually stay at least a week anyways.

 

i hauled this out. 500lbs to ohio for $1.90 ish.



unfortunatly it was on the board as 20' x2' x2' and 10k lbs. the only ltl i could find to go with it wouldnt work with those specs. but it would have with what i actually got. still paid more then most out of houston area

 

Wideload: Didn't I tell you, you'd get your turn waiting at home but in line for the good load.
Next time your through Lousiville, I doubt there will be any waiting list.

 

I bounced out of Texas last week back to Iowa, where I am still at home.

 

Ya Texas rates suck bad I'll be the first to say that I run into Houston and that's about it... Last load I did to fort bliss I picked up at the port of Beaumont paid $2,900 and than did 3 humvees back into rosenburg,tx (by Houston) that paid $1,650 it's all I ended up doing that week but it wasn't a bad week

So when y'all say your waiting to be first on the list you saying that if 10 trucks drop in that town the first truck that unloads gets first pick of the first load that comes up? But if you don't take that first load truck number two gets it?

 

Yep, first in first out.

 

But if it's your home area, your still moving up the list and you stay on top, until you deceide to grab one.

 

4 Days and every load I try to accept on, I lose. I keep getting told I'm still 5th on the list. Sure wish I understood.
Hopefully tomorrow is my turn. Starting to be real frustrating. Starting to think they are playing favorites.
