    That's what I always hated about relays. 50% we're overweight either gross or on the tandems

    That's Schneider's problem not yours. I'd call them and say I'm dropping this screwed up load at the OC with a scale ticket that says I'm over 80k.
    They'll take you off the load and taada you're in Carlisle and there's always freight there.
    Sunday leftover freight though lol.

    He is in a KW isnt he?

    Sounds to me like that load should have been flagged for a heavy haul company truck.

    well screw it.. I cancelled all my loads.
    The relay load was super delayed and while I could have pulled it off it wasn't worth it.
    Plus it would have had me heading into Hail and Tornadoes tomorrow in Wisconsin lol no thanks.
    So I made the best with Sunday leftover freight and pulled off two shortie loads. IL-IA and then IA to IL
    Between the two loads it'll put me this time tomorrow at 426 miles at $2.17 all miles
    First is drop and hook at both ends, other is live load and then drop.
    When I can pull off $2 and 400 miles in a day on last minute Sunday leftover freight you know the mid-west is rolling good.
    One of my cancels was a $2.20 load from Ohio to Saint Louis and it's on the board now so have at it if anybody wants it.
