    Twice today I seen a Schnenider truck hauling an estes trailer, the first time it was a 53' (I assume) and the second was pulling doubles

    does Schneider broker their loads? how, how does that work?

    No, Estes, like a lot of other LTL carriers will broker out loads to other carriers to meet their schedules when they are over loaded with freight. It usually goes to the lowest bidder.

    Estes does. Their P/D guys pick up the freight from their customers, it's brought back to a terminal and put together as a load they are contracting out to say Swift, Swift then gets one of their trucks to pick it up. Once it's picked up by one of their trucks, from that point on swift will be paying you. Estes at that point is just another customer for Swift.
