Doesn't matter if youre paying by the ton, the yard, the pound, flat rate, the mile, or even per piece of lava rock, the bottom line is the the total pay divided by the mile gives the Carrier the rate per mile....what he's being paid to haul it for how many miles its moving.

So if youre not afraid, whats the per ton price? Is that an all in price, or rate + FSC, and does it ship on a 22 ton min?

Wow, we hauled one of these 4 years ago at $195/ton and it was cheap.. I sure wouldnt be advertising that cheap of freight to anyone, probably be ok for a freight hauler to run at $1.60/mile but not on dumps

TQL should just stick to there cheap van freight or reefer freight and stay away from dump loads.

You brokers have got to learn what $200.00 a mile is.Thats what it takes to run a truck today and that the low end.But each to his own.
