mercer transportation

Just wanted to post this accomplishment tonight I'm hauling 21,160lb of plastic rolled mesh I picked up in Marrow, GA

 

Nice job. Lol.

 

I'm jealous, I cant get that even I am empty>

 

How can I commit to a load for $6982 on 2798 miles, then within one minute of committing, it dropped to $4697 for the same miles. Before some of you say I didn't see what I saw or I am lying I have Screen shots of both.

 

Happened to me b4, the shipper dropped the rate, the agent should honor the original or let you drop the load

 

Don't forget sometimes the agents make an error entering info and immediately correct it. If the rate changes after dispatch that is an acceptable reason to get taken off the load. I keep screenshots of every load I commit to and am dispatched on to make sure there are no surprises.

 

When my coordinator called they told him they enter the miles wrong. The miles are the same on both screen shot. this is not the first time.

 

Well my truck failed inspection.. Guess a marker light is out. Then there a small air realise thing that controls air to 2nd axle break chambers. They said it's small leak? Funny thing I don't lose air when I press breaks lol. These ppl here want $160 to fix it...The part $25 then the light bulb $5?

 

Pete, you better get used to that. They are very picky especially on air leaks. I always have things to fix when I go through. If thats all they found then you got lucky. And as far as your repair bill, that sounds very reasonable to me, especially if they are the ones that come to you. Last inspection I had, they couldnt get to me for a couple of days so I had to fix it myself. Good luck.

 

There's a whole lot of drivers that would be very happy with that $160 fee!
