Panama City FL bad?
I see the same loads going from my town to Panama City Florida but they sit for days on the loadboards. Is this a bad place and people avoid it?

There isn't much coming out of Panama City, FL for a flat bed. There is an agent who has air conditioners. You will likely have to deadhead up to Alabama or Georgia to find a decent paying load. You can get steel out of Mobile, Fertilizer out of Dothan, AL, if you have hazmat.

What is the load paying to go there? How heavy? Tarp or no? The rate would have to be good because of the lack of freight in the area. |
Got that steel mill in Birmingham, AL. but that's quite the DH
Paper mill in Pensacola but you hauling paper would pretty much be ruled out. |
same with loads going from seattle to denver, not a whole lot of good frieght leaving denver so these loads sit for a while.

You don't have some of the hassles in Panama City as you do in New York. There just isn't much coming out of there, freight wise. If you get a good rate going down, you should be able to dead head out to where you can get something that pays fairly well. It is amazing how just crossing a state line into Georgia or Alabama can make such a difference in rates.

Hang at the beach for a few days.

Now that sounds like a productive use of time. :P
