Serious Independant O/op question.

Yeah OP...You can hit the Loadboards if you want for now..But nothings changed, The Borkers still like to get down with their 30% :smt069

 

My bad volvodriver, I didn't realize your authority was still active...No I wouldn't consider leasing on to another carrier and yours is still active. Run the boards until you can get direct. Like I said earlier, no need to be aggressive as the other business is doing well. Just run the boards and you should be alright there good buddy.

 

Seems like you have a good handle on what you want and sounds like you've been around for awhile. Personally I do not think your setting your expectations too high with $1.80-2.00 a mile off the boards in your area. I agree with the others, start small and keep overhead low until you land a direct shipper you like. Happy trails.

 

You have a great opportunity. Post your truck up and dictate the rate always from the comfort of home. If you get loads that's cool, if not who cares. Best way to get in tune with that particular market

 

O/O here any info on where to find the load boards and how to use them? Thanks

 

Thats like saying "Im a chef, can anyone tell me where the kitchen is"

And this folks, is ANOTHER example why we are considered UNSKILLED labor

 

don't be bashful. tell us how you REALLY feel about that question.
