He needs to find a company that gives him the freedom to pick his own loads off the boards.
If the avg load is 2.00 mi at 65% thats 1.30 mi. If operating cost are 1.10mi your making .20mi. But at end of the day how much you clear per mile after expenses is all that matters how you get there is going to be up to him. Some if not most have to run a ton of miles to get to that number . IMO opinion if you were aloud to book your own loads you could get to that magic number with less miles and wear tear on you equipment.
Im % leased on i get freedom to work the load board 90% of the time. If im pulling customer freight im getting 3200 gross a week on avg week. On loadboards that avg goes up to 6000 plus on the same miles ran . Thats DBL profit per mile after expenses.Last edited: Jan 1, 2018

SO how do you like USA so far i am heading that way soon

Well, that escalated quickly, lol. I was thinking of going with the same company, I'm still doing research. I believe with your 10 years exp, you'd do better with their load board. I believe that is 65% of the load. Sorry everyone griped you out for asking a question, either way, happy trails and happy hoilidays.

Did you get you a trailer?

Gdog66223 Thanks this. -

I was going to say that. Yo can find a super cheap box that might leak but you can work around it. Get you a can of Manus bond. That will stop the leak when another one comes. With my trailer I have to mess with it when thr seasons change.
