Due to this "freight drought", be sure there are more drivers willing to accept the lower rate (even if they hate it too) than refusing it. Unfortunately.
If you know what kind of company is this TEFS, why would you bother to search for more bad things about them? There are many other respectable carriers that deserve attention. My POV.
One of my drivers asked me few days ago to give up on the carrier that I'm leased with, and switch to multi-carrier formula... I explained to him that his proposal is a bad idea. Been there already 5-6 yrs ago, I wouldn't do it again.
Yes, but an LTL isn't an expedite freight, it can be delivered even after one month from the p/u day... some shipper from LA tried once to give me an LTL going to Michigan, for $500! When I told the guy that we're expediters and he can have it delivered in 48 hrs, he said there's no rush, we can...
All of 'em are gas. All of 'em are 2014. The very first one that I bought, I spent already over 14K in repairs. The other two, so far only plenty of light bulbs. But they're still young (speaking about mileage).
