Questions you wished you ask before joining Mercer

Hey this a mercer thread, go wear your Flipflops in his thread

 

Does Mercer have "yards" in major cities you can park at? Or is Louisville pretty much their only place they have parking.

 

Some of the agents have lots with truck access.

 

Would you know any of the cities off the top of your head that has these lots?

 

Anyone here pulled loads for Mercer's brokerage arm before leasing on? Or anyone currently pulling broker loads?

I'm pulling a hopper right now doing a lot of harvest work and it pays pretty well. A lot of people so far have told me they plan on having more wheat next year and want me to come back. I'm looking at buying a flatbed still and doing that during the winter and spring to stay busy then. Is Mercer's brokered freight fairly strong for one truck to stay busy with?

 

I believe the thread "Update on mercer" started off about that subject. Try to send a PM to Jacquesi23, I believe based on his 1st post, he is currently pulling their broker freight.

 

I pulled for them going all the way back to 95 when i first got a truck. But not exclusively. I don't think you could stay busy relying exclusively on one brokerage firm. At least not at a profitable rate.

 

Ok, thanks. I'll message him.

Gotcha. I wouldn't try to pull for just Mercer, but I know what you mean. Thanks.
