NW Distributors, Inc.

We are looking for owner operators that own their own trucks and trailers, and have their own authority. We find you the loads and and communicate with the brokers and shippers. We get you the best rates possible. When you deliver the load and you are paid with in 48 hours. Rates paid to owner op are over $1.60 a mile and can exceed $2.20 per mile. We are able to provide you with as many miles as you can handle and we can find you loads anywhere you want to be. Owner operators can net $3000 to $5000 weekly after expenses.

So basically you just want to be another tick sucking the blood out of the ones doing all the work and with all the liability and expenses??? It's bad enough as it is. The ones that pay you 15% of a load that's already being low balled will not be around long. But that's just my thoughts.

The idea is to get owner operators load that make them money. We look for loads that as close to the $2.00 a mile or better and provide them to owner operators that sign up with us. We don't force owner ops to take any loads they don't want.

You have that backwards. we aren't paying 15% we are paying 85% it's a good deal considering how many other load finders who try and rape you

We get our loads directly from the broker, we don't paid our 15% till the owner op has delivered the load.

Im thinking if a guy has his own authority, insurance, plates and everything else he wouldn't be to eager to give up 15%. You can lease to someone and run on their authority and insurance for 15%.

Sure, this may not be a fit for everyone, some drivers have seen the value in this, and signed up as they now only have to focus on driving, and don't have to worry about any of the other "office" work or finding the loads. they know they will be paid within 48 hours and don't have to mess with collection, and they know if they don't approve of the load then they don't have to take it. Nobody is twisting anybodys arms here, if they don't like it they can stop at any time, they're free to run loads they find themselves without giving up that 15% as well. NW Distributors Inc. is a business just like you guys are, and as a business they're going to charge for services they render. If that price tag is too much then the individual can keep going about it on their own.

For anyone who may be wondering, this company, NW Distributors is in no way related to Northwest Transportation Services, Inc. also located in Vancouver WA.

Thank you,

Between your 15% and the Brokers at least 10% , the truck looses 25% right off the top. On a $2 a mile load thats nearly 47-50 cents a mile, depending on how you pay it out, thrown out the window. Now you have a $1.50 a mile load...

I dont understand why all these dispatch services keep popping up and more importantly, why these owners would throw their money away like this.

Crazyyyyyyyyyyyy

Here is the deal folks if you don't know how to find or negotiate your own freight. You would be money ahead leasing with a carrier that does.

I dispatched for others for a flat administrative fee. I do not rhink paying percentages on top of percentages is a good deal at all. Outsourcing for a service is fine.

No, I am not dipatching anyone right now, nor am I interested in doing so. I am done with that garbage. You either have my banner or screw off. If you don't know what you are doing then why in the hell did you get your own authority?

We have classes at Trucking for Profit on Facebook for those that want to enhance their profit.

Gotta quit talking the rate per mile and start talking profit. Rate per mile is just a measuring tool. Profit is really how business is ran.

Just say no to TQL, join the giant killers club.

Alfred you are exactly correct!

Not only is per mile a tool that has been used (too Much!) It is also a tool that is becoming much less of a reliable tool at least as far as profit is concerned. Within 12-18 months this industry will be focused nearly 100% on per hour rather than per mile.

Mr.Smith I have an issue with one person and only one person in your company. My dealings with Northwest Transportation have been very good. Wish we could work together more. The other person posting with the similar name, for me , goes in the same file folder as TQL, PLS and list goes on. Mr.Smith I wish you a prosperous future.
