WHO DO YOU PREFER TO HAUL FOR AND WHY?

[Crystal Smith]

When it comes to 3rd Party Logistics Companies, who do you prefer to haul for and why?  If 50 brokers have the same load on the loadboards, who will you call first?

[Michele O'Donnell]

I call the ones I have dealt with before & have treated me well in both wage and professionalism!  And sometimes its not the logistics company as much as it is the individual broker.  All logistic company brokers are not the same!

I also base my rate on all miles traveled!  Meaning dead head, loaded, & prospective miles to get to a good freight area if the load I am taking is in a dead freight area.  So if I tell you my truck has averaged $2.10 per mile for the last 30 days that is $2.10 a mile for EVERY mile on my odometer!
