Dry van and reefer drivers what’s the cleanest lane you’ve run in Q4 so far, with decent reloads?
I’m seeing a lot of drivers doing Dallas → Atlanta → NJ or Chicago → Detroit → Toledo.
Curious what’s working for you?

1st time this week I think...
What's working best for you? Then I'll indulgeTheLoadOut Thanks this. -
Right now I’ve been watching Dallas → Atlanta → NJ stay pretty steady, and Chicago → Detroit → Toledo still has decent turns with auto and retail pushing volume.
Reloads out of Atlanta and Jersey have been hit or miss though, depending on equipment. What lanes have been treating you right lately? Curious where you’re seeing the cleanest miles without sittingTrucker61016 Thanks this. -
I run flat, sorry

No worries at all flatbed’s its own world.
I’ve been hearing a lot of drivers say the Midwest has been the steadiest lately, especially running out of Missouri, Indiana, or Ohio. How’s it been on your side? You getting more consistency out of the steel lanes or doing more building materials? -
Hmmmm, what's working for me is to never go to Dallas → Atlanta → NJ or Chicago → Detroit → Toledo.

Well, now we need to know who has the highest paying loads and what is their phone number?

I’ll take that number, but for real, what lanes have actually been paying this week without a ton of sitting? I’ve been hearing mixed things about the Midwest loops like Chicago to Indy to Columbus, and some folks running Southeast lanes like Atlanta to Charlotte or Savannah back up to Atlanta. A few drivers mentioned Kansas City through Omaha into Denver staying steady, and I’ve still seen some running Houston up through Memphis into Chicago. Markets have been weird this Q4, so I’m just trying to see where people are actually finding consistency. What’s been working for you?

Apparently you didn't get the message the first time. Do you think this is a place where we all just give each other the keys to the kingdom? Do your own research. Run YOUR business. No one is interested in giving away their secrets. SMH.TheLoadOut and Numb Thank this.
