Owner Operators what rate is fair

Are you just starting out a dispatch service?

 

Why would some with there own authority even want to hook up with you.Are you looking for guys who don't have a trailer Your basically just brokering and you don't Even have a rate.I would only run your stuff if rates were good enough to get me away from any broker I was using and your credit and pay schedule is within what I would work with.i don't even understand the question maybe me how do you add a guy with his authority to your fleet

 

If you want to do that, they better be on the brighter side of $3 a mile.

 

Hey, I can provide a crap load of $1.5 freight for anybody who wants to sign up. I'll even hook you up with my boy at TQL, he will give all the miles you want.
Dude, what you are offering is so stupid, it's not even funny

 

I'm wondering who with their own authority would even bother with such low rates? Why they don't just suspend their authority and lease on with a company that will hold their hand? They'd really be better off at the $1 a mile plus fuel surcharge companies than they would hauling your freight for a $1.50 and keeping up with the expenses of an independent. But I'm sure there are some desperate independent o/o out there that will be glad to let you take advantage of them.

 

The brighter side of $5 per mile !!

 

When you run a business there is no settling for 1.5 $ pm. That's just plain stupid and insulting. Do you have any idea how much it cost to maintain equipment and everything else thet goes with having your own authority? Everybody can go online these days and pick a load from a load board. So many online services , even a dum dum can do it.
