    Are these new brokers better to use than C.H. Robinson?

    Check out "Life is Good" on YouTube. His name is Tim Ghorley and he has spoken very highly of Uber freight on some of his videos

    One doesn't negate the other. :)

    Although I thought Uber Freight was simply a cheap broker. They don't cater to illegal shipping companies like Uship does, they just don't care if one makes a profit.

    Its all the same, you guys don't seem to get that the one who sets the price for Uber is Uber, which means you are just a robot.

    And the person that set's the price for Ridgeline Inc. is Ridgeline. What's your point?
    Every company sets their own price, usually for the most profit they can manage.

    I'm an Uber driver now, been one for three years. I'm getting ready to start CDL school. Anyway, the problem with Uber is they will undercut everyone in the business and you'll be making minimum wage (or less) like me. There are always idiots out there that are willing to work for peanuts.
