There is quite a bit of freight that comes out of Jacksonville. Insulation, containers, military, etc., But that is a long deadhead from Panama City. You also have steel coming out of Montgomery and Mobile. Most of the freight coming out of these areas doesn't pay that well. You can always haul some $0.90/mile freight out of Plant City. :P

I haul the A/C units from there and they have a good rate most of the time.Our agent there is real good about rates,alot better than the one we have at home in Kingston.Close to $2 p/m to me on most everything.
If you are hooked to a flat do not go any further South in Fla. then here or Jax. unless you get a high enough rate to d/h out of there.
