RGN average rates per mile?Advice to stay away from cheap freight!

It's going to be hard to get 90k axled out on a seven axle. Unless you're in ga, fl, or Alabama. And just a few other states

 

You'll also find we don't much like to discuss rates. It always leads to a pissing contest

 

It will depend a lot on the machine i.e. How it's balanced and well lenght. I'm 128600 right now with a 350 excavator. It weighs 81ish. 14/56,900/57620. Mo will only allow 130 on a normal 7 axle setup. Most states allow 20/60/60. But it's hard to get that much on a steer unless you have a really long neck.

 

With a 745 cat truck it weighs 76ish but it's heavy at the cab. With a 26' well I'm about 58 on the trailer but only 124k gross.

 

Where are you at?

 

The gross dollars are high, but so are the operating cost.

 

I am going to say this in as nice a way as possible....

First
You need to spend a lot of time learning about permits and costs and pilot cars and costs and fuel mileage and costs.

You can’t know what to charge to move a piece when you don’t know what the costs to move are going to be.

Second

You need to know what states are a problem for your set up - say CA or AZ for example - where you may only be able to
Scale a 60k load

You need to know which states are going to require you to get empty travel permits just get where the load is...

Third

You need to assess your skill level and determine what sizes are in your envelope

Once you know these things - how much to charge will be relatively clear. $6/mile may not not leave you much at the end if you have to make a 300 mole detour that requires pilot cars and permit that cost $500-$1000 each.

Good luck
