I am putting this post together hoping it will help some of you that are researching this site, and this forum in regards to making a career change and becoming an expediter. Below you will find a number of links to articles done by Jeff J and/or others for EO about every day expediters. I...

I know of many places in Elkhart IN. that do this.

Twmaster For the type of work you do I don't see why you need something as big as a sprinter, or the big aerocell body. Why not just get a regular Chevy or Ford, heavy duty. You will end up getting 500K, 600K, or more hauling the loads you do. I haul less than 1000 lbs in my 3500 Chevy and get...

Here is the link to the article where I found the pictures of that bus/truck, http://www.expeditersonline.com/cgi-bin/artman/exec/view.cgi/1/123

There is a much easier way. Right click on the picture you want to put in your post. Go to and open properties and copy the path. Paste into your post and WALA!!! you get this:http://www.emotipad.com/images/mainicon6.gif Forgot to tell you to open properties!!!

Is it that I'm old fashion or is the expediting world changing? Na!!! That’s not it!!! This new breed of drivers (Not all new drivers) wants all the worldly comforts, then be the first ones to whine and cry about not making enough money. I not only tend to agree with Weave but I know as a...

You can place an ad in the classified section, for this wanted job. It may get a better response

RE: Hey Van guys (and Gals)! What are you paying f Could turn you on to my agent, but he doesn't write where you live.

I see those long layovers can be detrimental to ones psychosomatic paranormal perception of the forum!!! Please Madam Fed-Ex of Memphis Find DDx2 a run ASAP!!!! Although I did like it DD LOL!!!

I placed an ad in the classified section on this site and within 1 hour. YES 1 hour!!! I had 20 hits and 4 replies. Keep them coming! Just wanted to bring this information to the surface. This site along with the service and information on this site is priceless to anyone in this profession, or...

To give you a start on getting some answers is to look at the past posts in the archives. A lot of your questions will get answered just by reading those. The 2000 van is not a good investment because most companies require a van be replaced every 4 or 5 years. This van will put limits on who...

RE: Hey Van guys (and Gals)! What are you paying f Is your cargo insurance included in that price? I pay $1500.00 a year for mine that is $1mil, liability and $100K cargo. All insurance is based on what you told your agent when applying for the insurance. Where is it you will be delivering...

I am always seeing posts from members about operating authority. Most members inquire about getting an authority, and I was just wondering how any EO members we have with their own operating authority? Of the members that do have your own authority, are you operating under it now? Did you...

If the company advances 40% when the load is picked up on the con-data card why isn't the owner of the van giving that 40% to the driver? I can see the three week wait for the settlement but if I'm not mistaken don't the bigger expedite companies have weekly settlements?

>My reference to my service meant, and I probably shouldn't >have used it, was that we had to listen to "lingo" from 90 >day wonders who hadn't even had their boots dirty, but they >were issuing orders that got people hurt or worse. That too happens on this forum BUT we Moderators and EO...

I would call Panther and speak to a company prep about the way they pay. This sounds to me like this O/O is the one doing this 3 week deal. If in fact you do find out it is the O/O I'd turn his butt into the state. Reason being he is in fact treating you as an employee, but lying to you and the...

Okay I screwed up!!!! I hit the wrong button and removed this thread and all it's replies. Lucky for me I was able to save the text. I copied it all in this post and let Lawrence know about it. He may be able to recover the removed thread. Sorry for being so clumsy...

Hey guys if you all want to keep it going I can move it to the Loading dock, and you all can ramble on all you want. Let me know guys! And I will move it.

You are 100% right about them not passing this into law. I believe I was telling the driver if a company did pay the company a fuel surcharge it is a law that the monies paid for that fuel surcharge go to the person that did in fact pay for the fuel. I read the bill and mistook it as being...
