How much a mile are these BR runs paying? (range of pay)

"As for the 700 mile thing, if people are going to leave over that... GOOD. Sorry dude, no offense... but if you want to run more miles, less money.. go for it" There's another option-give an option to run more than 700 miles on runs. Those who don't want to run can stay at 700 mi and below...

How much are these BR loads paying per mile?

I had a dropoff last week and the person receiving aplogized for being 30 minutes late to his desk because of a company meeting. All companies have meetings. If Fedex is going to cut D's and E's rates you'll find out like we did. You'll get a phone call then a letter. Anything is possible in...

As far as I know Fedex CC is not putting on B units, but if they were, and your a team, you would do better than a single driver since you'd get longer runs without a transfer and would have more load opportunities. The downside is if you limited yourself going to the east coast and Canada you'd...

They will not change the policy unless they get flooded with mail from single B unit drivers. They know our competition is allowing more miles and they will sit on their *** until they are pressured. The always say the 700+ miles is a safety issue because they once got sued from what I heard by...

So is Landstar Express America hiring cargo vans now? And what size truck is getting the $1.30 per mile?

During this economy I can better understand the flat rates that our competition had before ours went into effect, even though I don't like it. But the 700 mile limit NO ONE has but us, making us lose even more money. The Safety Board that decided the 700 mile limit rule is separate from the...

"We switched to Progressive Commercial for our truck Insurance. You can find an ad on the E/O website. Saving $1800 per year, direct deduction from checking once a month. Still have our WAI thru Fedex, looking for an alternative here also." Fedex CC must have different rules for B units then...

"A standard that is not announced has zero effect as a motivator. Contractors have now gone many months without knowing their acceptance percentages. Customers continue to be served. FDCC has not suffered because contractors do not know their acceptance percentages. Why should FDCC and its...

If your driving single in a B unit and would like to try to increase our crippling 700 mi load limit write Jason Frederick directly with pen and paper. I've done this twice and he brought the subject up at the Safety Board meetings but the Board shot it down twice. If a number of us let the...

I was laying over south of ELK one time and they offered me a load to Ontario near Kitchner picking up near Gary- go figure, but like previously mentioned ELK had more loads, most of them aren't long loads but numberwise its better there.

The question is for Nations Express-not driver Xiggi

Is Nations Express hiring B units- cargo vans at this time? I'm based in the Philly PA area. I'm with Fedex CC and they limit single driver loads to 700 mi.

Yes the capability to track has been going on forever but I don't track just MY loads. I can track every load. As far as I know within the past 2 1/2 years I never talked to anybody who knew they could track EVERY load. The dispatchers didn't even know a driver could do that. I'm the first that...

Pros that start with 2xxxxxxx CAN be tracked on fedex.com. I tracked many starting with 2 (which will eventually become 3 once 2999999 is passed. The loads that can't be seen with details regardless of the pro number are loads that must have a log in and password and the customer decides that...

PAG- Pat in Safety has to keep busy so she sends us these msg's. Notice you never get them in the middle of the night. Sending this via email- that would be too cheap and a common sense thing to do, so therefore it WON"T be done by Fedex CC

Anybody ever see the cargo van I think it either a Panther van or a TriState van that has a window A/C on the back rear door. If anybody happens to know this driver let me know. I'd like to take a good look on nhow he installed it.

The way the DVA works is that every legal and available unit is looked at by the system for every load. It allocates units for the load opportunity based on points and that is able to make the pu on time. It never calculates if it makes economic sense for a truck. Based this criteria, your...

I've had load opportunities picking up 425 miles in the past. I'm based in South Jersey and the pick up was in Maine. I had a <75 and ther system offered it to me. I always get outrageous load opps when I have a <75 that have alot of lead time for p/u, or when its a discounted load and nobody...
