I'll pray to the freight gods for a good load back home! If that don't work, I'll talk to Sally & Murray!

No "shorty" loads for you! Those belong to fastman! lol.

LOL!! Quit your carrier and come on with us IF YOU ARE UNHAPPY. That's the only math that works, for us.
BUT, that is a tough nut to crack, waiting for post-invoice payment. It takes a special kind of personal financial ability to wait an average of 6 weeks for money to roll in.

Holly moly 6 weeks huh? I'll thank god every day from now on for a paycheck every Friday!!!!

It must be nice tho, once it rolls in, it should be a lump some.


Touching down here in Memphis in about 40 miles. Then hopefully a good sleep, although I would not turn down a load right outta here

After the first 6 weeks, the checks come every Friday just like any other company. Murray just refuses to use a factoring company. He believes we work too hard to just hand the factoring company a piece of what was earned. Factoring is nothing short of just a very short term loan, with a fairly high interest rate considering the short terms.

Only difference with Murray is a longer hold, the normal is to hold 2 weeks, then pay you the following Friday. So your already waiting almost 3 weeks anyway. Plus, no cal comm, no escrow account and NO fees of any kind for the dispatching, billing or sending the checks. Crossroads just takes out their percentage and mails you all the rest of what was billed and collected. Works well for me!
