Why pay Landstar over 30% of the load when you can have 100% with your own numbers?

    3500 a year for general liability is crazy cheap!

    I'll get my own numbers as well, but I may or may not use it. My cousin will certainly use it.

    Negative. Do company van at LS. This load right here was preloaded. Drop & hook near the house. $3.83 mile.
    Now out of that it's not 65%, cause I get 100% of the FSC, and 100% of unloading.
     
    DSK333 Thanks this.

    So LS's customers are calling you and offering you runs. And that 3.83 is BEFORE LS takes their 65 percent?

    There's several times I've talked to guys that were mother ####ing LS, blah you're dumb, you give them all that money, and I'm still making more on the same load, with a fraction of the overhead, and our load board is averaging 50,000 loads a day now, just van, I have the rest filtered out.
