Use this site if you want. My son used it for sometime before he got dedicated runs hauling frozen chicken from Morris-town, tn, to SC.

Before the accident and his own rig was totaled, he was grossing 6k a week and loved it. In other areas before the chicken runs, he hauled ice-cream at near 4 bucks a mile. Yes the brokers get a chunk, but he would negotiate loads and believe it or not, if a broker says he cannot pay what you are asking, it is not true. I have sat right beside my son while on speaker phone listening to him talk to brokers, not yelling, low calm voice. He would ask the broker rep if he could pay say 1700 dollars instead of the 1400 that was offered and many times he got it, unreal. Usually for just 400 miles , but when he got the chicken hauling runs, the dedicated was easy. If he could have stayed awake, he could have run 7 days a week hauling chicken, but you get into that DOT sleep time mess then... never believe what a broker rep tells you, they can pay a lot more then you think. Many truckers cave in to that first low rate that is quoted. .....don't cave in, to many cave in because they think they will not get any loads,,,,its not true, will that was the way I saw and heard it when I went with my son a couple of times.... do not cave in on the first rate that is quoted you, you can do better and you just might be the only truck available for the run, think about it.
