More Hot Shot Flatbed loads with atleast $3.00 a mile
NOT enough Flatbed - Hot Shot loads, most of the ones there are do not pay well...Fuel is sometimes over half of what we make on the load, no less than a third of...It would be great if you offered loads and also have a back haul attatched....I don't understand how some people get paid well to take a load and others hardly make enough to deliver load and make it back to home lot... The OTR team has been a blessing and the Dat Load Board has been pretty good.
