I started @ the age of 18 yrs old driving in between scale houses in a 1976 COE White Freightliner 10 car auto transport , and have loved the road ever since.. I may be new to expediting, but seems to be something I can handle.. Right now I am signed on with a small expediting company that keeps me loaded 1500 - 2000 miles a week, however I went and got my own authority, only ? now is .. What do I do with it now..? How do I get to bid on the big dawgs load boards or even get to them? Do I e- mail them all my authority and liability?cargo insurance?

u kinda put the cart before the horse, but what i have found out is google ltl load boards and you will find the same as if you did not put the ltl in the search bar, some offer free live time viewing, some do not, in order to bid like a big dawg you got to register and pay like a big dog, some are worht there wait in gold, and some r worth they weight in ****, so becarfull, it is also not uncommon to belong to to or three of them, a lot of people also use load brokers but i heard they are expensive,

do u self a favor and do two things, one there is a new to expediteing board started and ran by a guy named gary...find it put it in ur favs, this man knows his stuff, has been doing this 28 or so yrs,


and two,,,when ever possible find urself a load out of where you are going before you actually get to the drop off piont, although i do not drive..( can't afford a truck) i am always on different boards learning and watching for when i have it saved up, many people get into a area and can not get out,

thank you for reading my two since, load boards are easy to find, loads on the other hand as a new guy. well not so easy
