    Overall I can't complain since how I've learned a lot since I came back to Prime in 2013. I turned down a cheap load today that wouldn't even pay for my fuel. I told them that I'll be in Springfield, MO, first thing in the morning to find out what is going on. A few minutes later they sent me a better paying load, but has more time on it.

    Prime pulls reefer and tanker and they pay a higher % than Schneider yet drivers there are getting lower rates to their truck than Schneider Van drivers.
    That's such BS

    Is the packing material listed on the board?

    I'm thinking the new requirement is because SNI doesn't want to get surprised that they loaded totes instead of bottles.

    The type of product is usually on the listing.

    Like it'll say "paper", "pallets", "beer", "food".
    I've done water bottle loads I forget how those are listed. I think it says "water beverages".

    Just like hazmat loads say hazmat I'm sure Schneider will list tote loads as such as well.

    I believe water is listed as beverages other than alcohol

    I sent my recruiter a copy of my irs letter with my ein and that was perfectly fine. Maybe your recruiter needs to turn the page in her highway to success manual or look at the other side of her script ;)
