Just curious
If them wheels arent rolling ya aint making $$$ :moose: |
As a Landstar O/O, I constantly turn frt. down. I am appalled at the rates some agents call me with, then try to "sell me" on how easy the load is, or how good the frt. is on the other end. Never haul cheap frt. just to get a good load on the other end. I will run empty before hauling cheap. A Freightliner dealer has NEVER volunteered to reduce his rates for repairs on my truck just because he was in a "cheap rate" area.

only thing about NYC... STAY OFF ANYTHING THAT SAYS PARKWAY

Keep turning downs, and see how much cheaper you will work for when the mortgage come due. Never ever turn down a load. The company i work for understands if you do run out of hours, just be honest. That is a ticket you do not want.
I am on a roll, and this is just my view. |

Several problems with the comments on this thread:

And last of all...How come this poll question doesn't list "rates not high enough" as one of the reasons? It should be at the top of the list. We turn down freight frequently due to the rates. Always seem to come up with something better if we hold out. If you don't think it's available, see what some of the big carriers profits increased this year. The rates are out there, you just need to demand a piece of them. |
I only turn down a load when I am running out of hours or when I am sick. If the load is crapy I get sick real fast. Never did it to often but when I needed to.
