    No doubt but let me ask my question again because you didn't actually answer it.
    I've been seriously considering changing my TONU to a full rate cancellation fee. Do you actually get paid after billing a client the full rate as a TONU? Share your experiences concerning this with the class.

    Maybe it's the area or broker, but when I was hauling precast for Oldcastle sites near Denver it always paid decent. Which is strange, considering it's a typically bad market area at a time when rates were lower on average. But we weren't hauling to big box stores, mostly construction sites in resort towns and upscale neighborhoods in the mountains.
