    CONGRATULATION!!! Best of luck to you

    Just a tip ,brokers track the rate you'll except some more than others, once you take a cheap one its nearly impossible to get a good rate out of them again.
    Also mind your tongue that broker you want to lay into for the rate their offering or chuckled at your offer just might be the one calling you back at the end of the day offering you your rate

    Thanks. I will. I have made some good connections with brokers that have nice paying loads. For example, one broker that has 2-5 loads a day m-f every week leaving texas heading to washington paying $3800 and the load weighs no more then 20k lbs. I have another load that pay $4,000 leaving washington m-f every week going to Indiana or Chicago area. There is good freight out there, you just have to sell yourself and make the calls.

    I am willing to help walk someone through what it took for me to get my authority, trailer, and eventually hauling my first load. It wasn't easy and took me a month plus to execute it all and finally leave schnieder monday.

    We don't pay for cargo or liability insurance, SNI does.

    Good luck, Red. Maybe start a new thread and let us all know how you did it and how you're doing.
    Again, best wishes.

    I'd love to hear how this went for you. I think that's my end goal someday. I need to pad the business account some more first.
