Picking my own freight baby! My journey to & of being on Schneider choice, the Adventure & Numbers!

I didn't know they let ex lease operators keep their access to the load board?

When did the policy change?

Or can I assume your many 'friends' that are still at Choice are telling you this?

For myself, the loads that I normally pull in the NE have seen a marginal increase, but nothing to be excited about.

And I've been home for 22 days, so I haven't been doing much searching...

Roll on..

 

I've been seeing loads not get covered. A lot of it is due to the stupid transit times they've put on them. But some is a lack of trucks.

Talking to various companies, and I'm hearing about a lot of people leaving Schneider due to rates and not enough good loads.

 

Also depends on how badly the customer needs the product. A lot of these customers use Schneider trailers as rolling warehouses. If at any time they can find someone to move it cheap they'll take advantage. If not they'll just let it sit. If the customer really needs the product and it needs to move Schneider can just up the rates.

 

Not all contract rates have had time to go up........

Depends on the length of the contract. And when it’s up for bid again.....

 

Funny how they go down while still under contract though.

 

The admin on Schneider owner operators facebook group removes anyone who says anything negative...he backs the idiots up who say they run 4k mi a wk gross 6k and take home 3500...every week...another one who supposedly is a fmr osr says he's running for $2.23mi all miles...he fos too...

 

Yeah you can average over $2 a mi, for like 1500 mi. I can also see grossing 6k on 4k mi, but you're gonna kill yourself running like that.

 

And your truck,lol.

 

Let me guess it warhippy or something like that?
