I don't think so.
$2.06/mile pulling containers? I'll be in Memphis next week to sign up!
I'm pretty sure that it would be a percentage of linehaul rate added to the line haul rate.
Example: LIne haul $1.00/mile x .3225= $1.3225/mile
Since Papa Rick posted about the rates for pulling containers in another thread, I'll use those rates.
$1.06/mile loaded + FSC @ 32.25% = $1.40/mile loaded
$0.89/mile empty + FSC @ 32.25% = $1.18/mile empty
avg revenue would be = $1.29/mile
Kinda cheap, but container rates always have been. If it keeps you home and that is important to you, it's probably as good as it's gonna get for local work and you do have a FSC system to protect you from the fuel spikes.
