    It's ground floor. Like very ground lol . I don't think they quite have it down yet . It just started last month for surface expedite . But I still get load offers . I just have the ability to look at them before they're offered now if that makes sense . Maybe 35 active loads max a day at one time . I'm not sure about the parameters of when they offer or what they offer but it's all over the map . This was the first one I optioned . Two clicks and they sent me a rate con

    Rate can also be deceiving only in the sense that I have a contract of 500 minimum to turn the key . So this load is hazmat ( extra 60) plus deadhead is paid up to 150 on load board . Sometimes I see a good load that's 300 miles away and wait for the offer because I know they might send me an offer and they'll pay all 300 DHPU

    Grocery Warehouses and lumpers too tempting eh?
    Any idea what 100-200 mile reefer loads pay in the Northeast?

    It's Pharma. They have to validate the temperature of all that viagra. They're pushing the segment so hard they're handing out 3 k bonuses to anyone who grabs a reefer from them. I talked to some fleet guys who owned their own units , it's like 72 %. On TVAL no one wants to tell me what they're getting . With the CC trailer it's like 55 %. On one forum I saw numbers like 20 k gross for a 1500 mile RT. Fedex advertised 2.10 per mile average before FSC, but I've heard 3 or more . The reefer board came online yesterday but I can't see it yet . I don't know that the region matters .

    And no groceries or lumpers ha ha
