New to the Total owner operater. Running my own authority, insurance, everything. No Broker involved. Got this Job about hauling 6ftx3ftx3ft concrete blocks around 6,000lb. Each Approx.. 26 of them they will be loaded and unloaded. I just chain them and drive. OKC -Edmond area approximately 40-45 miles. Per trip. I would have to rent a flatbed or he is willing to either way. I've never bid a job where there was no middle man. Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
Question for experienced O/O, bidding short runs?

Well, you've gotta have a minimum and your minimum is got to be out of price that you can actually make money. I don't know what your flatbed situation is, but I would not haul those loads for any less than $500 per load.
