    when QP is up to 1.5% I'm using it
    for example Schneider has 2% quick pay and I thing this is too much, and I'm waiting 30 with them
    CHRW introduce his self paying 48 hours, but we well know that's take 5 by 7 days

    don't forget that 1.5% for five days equals 20% APR

    Alright I can dig it. I guess it would be a cash flow issue. I guess the hard part is I am a pretty big cheapskate, unless its for the lady friend or nephews, so I wouldnt have a problem waiting the 30 to keep more money, as long as I had the cash flow needed, but that has to change constantly.

    Hello,

    I totally agree with what you are saying! I started my small trucking company in Jacksonville, FL about two years ago and I have been dealing with shotty brokers ever since I started the business, its almost like they know I'm new so they try to take advantage of us. On the other hand, I have also had a few good brokers but those brokers dont have enough loads! Can anyone refer me to any good quality, honest and reputable brokers who move loads in the southeast? Any info would be greatly appreciated!
