This doesn't even take into account the lumper fees.
No wonder you are so reluctant to take a shower and don't believe in tipping. :lol: :lol:
Personal attack? :lol: I didn't know you were that sensitive. :lol: Lighten up a little dude. This is just the internet. The fact is it takes HHG movers 2 to 3 times as long to drive a 3 day run. Although the revenue per mile may look good,the fact is that time is still money. It may work out good for some that don,t mind the extended layovers,but for most it doesn't.
