    Fleet owner trying to keep escrow

    No. They are not the same. One is a carrier and is governed by the Feds, the other is not. Or I should say, not by the leasing regs.

    Fleet owner trying to keep escrow

    Can't put a lien on until you go to court. That is the reason you go to small claims court. Same with a 1099. Just sending one to the IRS doesn't mean anything if it is denied. Then you go to small claims court.

    Fleet owner trying to keep escrow

    It may have been the case some time ago but with the way the economy is, all police depts would be doing is that. Worth a call but I wouldn't be too optimistic.

    Fleet owner trying to keep escrow

    Probably need to find out why. As mentioned, a call from OOIDA may help. After that a personal visit and or small claims court. Make sure you have the BOL's confirming you completed the runs.

    Government takes 10% out of savings accounts..

    They are broke and part of the euro so that is why they are wanting to do it. Much different here, we can print money when we get low. They can't do that. Comforting isn't it.:cool:

    *need help* out of fuel!!!

    Ok...good to know. Not sure what they would say with a fleet of trucks. If there is a limit, maybe throw on the oldest first and see what happens. New ones have towing already but not for flats.

    Carrier cutting rates

    I don't believe I have ever seen a E-1 tractor trailer.

    Fleet owner trying to keep escrow

    That was my original thought, then he says you get 500. That is the problem. Either he doesn't really know his contract or he isn't articulating it very well.

    Fleet owner trying to keep escrow

    Playing "devils advocate" One never knows with these kind of threads as we are hearing only one side. Also.....not sure what this means? " Return of escrow after two notice is for filled $500." Since that statement makes little sense, would could also make an assumption that you might not...

    *need help* out of fuel!!!

    You got my interest. Is this AAA or Sam's club. I would be using it on straights only. Don't have any vans other than personal ones.

    *need help* out of fuel!!!

    There isn't AAA for comercial vehicles. Running a truck out of fuel and then calling a service truck can be over 500 depending on where you are at. Being "dumb" can be expensive.

    Carrier cutting rates

    If they have less money because of a pay cut, wouldn't they have less to deadhead to a load? Seems like there would be more turn downs?

    Boy Scouts Tent fire detectors

    They wouldn't go that far. But maybe sprinkler systems for tents.;)

    Insurance Option

    That was my thought. Especially when someone called and they won't insure outside of that local area.

    Insurance Option

    It is all about risk as a group. To weed the good from the bad, they are going to use credit scores, driving history and what ever else to determine that risk. No different than buying a house that hasn't flooded but is in a flood zone.

    Carrier cutting rates

    If they continue to charge their standard fare, your freight opportunites are likely to stay basically the same unless their fleet count drops. Time will tell on that one I guess.
