Rates in/out of Reno, NV

$1.93 per mile if you operating cost are $1.30 then you are making .63 per mile. I am sure that many drivers would be happy with that. I picked the Chicago are for your run as it usually a safe place for okay rates. The Reno to Atlanta round trip is 1.92 and 2.02. Total revenue to the truck for a round trip seems to be $9,600 plus. I believe that trip would be a six day run. If you could stay on that and do nothing else you would make well over $200,000 per year profit. Of course that all depends on your business skills but personally, I would have no problem running those lanes.

Reno to NY is $2.17 with a return at $1.83. Seems to be a pattern here. If you see it, you should be able to make a living in trucking. Now if you could get someone to make a payment for your truck and then turn around and pay that person .31 per mile or maybe get two felons to make the runs and pay them .20 as a team, you could call yourself a mega.

 

Oh, and if I don't get a ton of thank you's for giving out those rates, I am never going to do it again.

 

Thank you for sharing that info, much appreciated.

 

rates change like the wind.... it all depends on being at the right place at the right time. average rate depends on your ability to haggle with a broker. as well as what is posted on the LB. if he/she(broker) finds a cheaper truck while your asking for more. your out of the running.

find a shipper see if you can direct ship for them. get set up on a dedicated.

pick your poison join the rat race.
