They are based in Cleveland. They are a small but very active carrier. There are several forum mebers who have run for them at one time or another - maybe they can shed some light. Lawrence, Expediters Online.com Change is inevitable, except from a vending machine...

2000 mile relocation move and you did it? That's not the carriers fault - it's your own. Say "no". It would be worth it to take a brokered load just like DaveKC said. What size of truck are you running? If you are in cargo van - well that may have been the best deal that you could get, on...

This series will take a comical look at the life of Joe Expediter...Border Crossings, Chicken Coop Visits, Truck Stop Layovers, Shipper Encounters and much, much more! http://www.expeditersonline.com/comics/expediters_life.jpg So what do you think? If you have any tag lines or scenario...

Tazman, Very impressive numbers - yes, by all means please email those to me. Also, who do you sell for? Go ahead and post it for everyone to see. :D Lawrence, Expediters Online.com ----------------------------------------- Thanks For Visiting EO...

I know Terry will have some facts & figures on this topic. I was always a pro-gas guy - I just didn't like eating that $5K upfront fee. However, times have changed. I think with current gas prices - that extra 5 -8 miles per gallon may quickly justify the extra $5K. Lawrence, Expediters...

I seem to remeber that Roberts Express had awesome insurance packages available - although it cost $500+ a month, it seemed to cover EVERYTHING, medical, dental and optical. Lawrence, Expediters Online.com ----------------------------------------- Thanks For Visiting EO! [p]...

Owensexp Welcome to EO! I have to agree 100% with DaveKC. Running a cargo van on your own is very, very difficult. You have to wear the hat of salesman, dispatcher, operations, safety manager, customer service and most importantly - accounts receivable....and collections. Plus you are the...

TJ959, Landstar Express America has an outstanding record in this industry. They seem to be very owner operator oriented. But like anything - they are not for everyone, do your homework. May I suggest that you plan to spend a day or two at the Expedite Expo 2004 in Woodhaven, MI? Register...

RE: What about the monkey people, eh? I'm surprised no one has talked about the infamous "Monkey People". This monkey lived in this couple's van. For fun this monkey would dig in it's diaper and sling crap at the first unsuspecting expediter who stuck his head in their window and would say "...

TJ959, As Terry and DaveKC mentioned - the Expo is the only time that you will have EVERY MAJOR expedited carrier under one roof (Ok, Big Tent) at once. Yup, we even beat out Mid-America on this one. Plan to spend both days - talk to each one. Have a list of goals for your business, miles &...

carstea, Thanks for those kind words! We are working hard on the next issue which will come out the same time as our Expedite Expo 2004 in August. Just a note to anyone who would be willing to help... We still have some extra copys of the magazine and would love to send them to anyone who...

Oldtimer, Seems to me that your playing with fire. One of two things will happen to someone who runs a ghost-driver: 1. They will get caught, lose their contract and have a bad record in DAC. (kiss your driving career goodbye) 2. They will get in a wreck and cause injury to themselves or to...

I would like to point out a great opportunity to our forum members. From our very own - Tony - AKA Teacel. It's not to often that dedicated runs like these come by...

I agree with DaveKC. In this business it's all about opportunities. The more you have the more you make. Not to mention when slow times come all the general freight you can haul - just to make it back to an expediting area. However, I don't think it would be worth it - without a co-driver...

OVM is correct in this matter...Canadians are in active combat in Afghanistan and yes they are also being killed in combat. You NEVER see or hear that on TV. http://www.collectionscanada.ca/04/042403/images/flag.jpg Lawrence, Expediters Online.com -----------------------------------------...
