Since i have no problem on OH side, but our customer base, on NE, is very limited, and brokers freight, that they could find in that area, ain't worth living the house , i would be interested, in a good paying loads, from that area, including Eastern PA, preferably to OH, but no farther, than MO.53' dry box, got any tips?

Containers pay great money directly from the ship/rail line. What is passed on to the O/O is what sucks. The man with the authority wins everytime!!! With no authority, you really have no authority. I'm not trying to argue, just giving you something to consider as a business man.

This is exactly why I question your advice.
You would need years of pier experience to even consider such an endeavor. and someone in the biz since 97 should know this this is pretty much unatainable for the o/o's on this board You need to be familiar with : Customs Freight releases Demurrage, demurrage, demurrage interchanges chassis pools appointments unloading fees phantom damage bills extortion terminations did I mention demurrage? There's plenty more |
, i would be interested, in a good paying loads, from that area, including Eastern PA, preferably to OH, but no farther, than MO.
