    New Pay Rate FedexCC is offering

    Less, the percentage rate is low. They wouldn’t make the change in your favor. Some loads are are 2-300 less when compared per mile. The old percentage of 70% wasn’t bad. It was better than the straight per mile. When fuel charge comes back down you’ll see how cheap the rate is.

    changes for 2020 good-bad?

    Another change of name and Victoria is stepping down. Rumor is Fedex wants custom critical (express) to relocate to the Tennessee headquarters. Anyone know what our name will be? If nothing else all the changes every year keeps me on my toes.

    New Freight management system

    Being in management on the lower and upper levels of big corporations it baffles me how this could get so screwed up. Taking this long and have so many problems is alarming. Leaving out critical elements, having to add back in parts that no one seemed to think were needed or had no idea were...

    Load Board, competition will be fierce

    So it's been a few months hows the load board going? I'm still doing better than prior but it's starting to go backwards. The biggest problem I have is how many miles I can run on 18hr reset. Seems it's a constant changing rule.

    Load Board Vehicle Type

    There's also an "A" unit. They show up on the load board but I don't think they recruit them anymore. (Could be wrong) I think they had a limit of 500lbs? I believe they used to be pickups and small vans.

    Load Board, competition will be fierce

    I'm seeing "C" loads now, some I could certainly take according too size and weight. Could be dock high that would exclude me from it. I haven't tried to except one yet. I do like seeing what the pay is. I have that twitch that wants a straight truck but my frontal lobe says no.

    Load Board, competition will be fierce

    I agree, I have been busy from day one. I've had very little trouble finding a load. Some bugs to work out but all and all I like it. They said updates will take place this Monday (29th) It's having a hard time keeping track of available hours. Was told the program is tracking B units same way...

    Outside brokers

    I'm not sure if it was Dicks or not. I said "most likely" Fedex will and does pay more to an outside broker to deliver loads. Not always but they will. As told to me by my then contract co-ordinator. She put it to me this way. 10-12 years ago Fedex was having trouble keeping up with loads. They...

    Delivery times

    I've never had an issue getting pu or del times changed. If its real apparent on the pu when I get the dispatch they change it automatically. On the delivery end Ive been told that fedex doesn't give a definite time to the consignee. Don't know if that's fact or not. With that said if I cant...

    flatter the flat rate

    The only ones putting "b" units on are the ones that pay even less than fedex. Landstar, load one are the best alternative and they are on hold until late spring early summer. Most of the other companies I've talked to are worse IMO. Looking for a local job myself. I'll be putting my new...

    QUALS WG & B & G Complete & TVAL Whats UP??

    They claim that they (fedex) dispatch 20% of the B unit loads to outside carriers. I would assume that they do the same with other units. I talked in depth with my resource coordinator about this. It's frustrating to say the least I understand the need but not when your own truck is available...
