Hopper Opportunity

if you have 7 axles you can haul 97000 in Minnesota

Why do you need a carrier to partner with,you have 15000 trucks??

Unfortunately, we do not have any asset hopper trucks, which is why I am reaching out to you guys to partner with. I am not apart of the asset division, strickly brokerage. I'm just looking for a carrier to partner with, make some money, make a carrier money and help my customer move these loads.

I?m right outside of Huron, I may be interested. Give me a call 605-460-0285

here's a ?, if a farmer sells grain to elevator, and the elevator turns around and sells it t o feedlot, can that farmer legally haul that load on just farm tags ?

As long as the grain is still on the farm The farmer can deliver it to the feedlot with farm tags however the farmer cannot pick up Grain at the elevator and deliver it to someone else's feedlot with farm tags

He can haul anywhere his buyer places it.

We are an asset based hopper company with over 170 hoppers. Give me a call 620-662-3792 Preston

Dont like the fact , and have a bad gut feeling on this ad from J.B. Hunt. Dont trust it. Looks like a step in the direction for them to develope a hopper bottom division. If you think our rates are low now, wait till JBHunt starts showing up at harvest seasons, elevators and ports. There will be nothing left for O/O. JB Hunt has the deep pockets to shut us all down. Its frustrating enough to deal with the brokers who expect us to run @$1.00 to $1.40 pm...doing the math comes to $50K means we have to drive 50K miles...equals less than a company drivers wage. So if you think it can' get worse, wait till JB Hunt shows up.

I dont like it I dont like it one bit.

OO ARE ALREADY EARNING LESS THAN WHAT WE WERE MAKING 3 YRS AGO. FARMERS ARE MAKING 1/2 OF WHAT THEY WERE MAKING 5 YRS AGO. WE DONT NEED ANY MORE GREED / DAMAGE / CHEAPER RATES CRAMMED DOWN OUR THROATS . AGRICULTURE HAS BEEN HIT SUPER HARD BY CHINA. AND NOW THIS ...JB HUNT?....WORK HARDER FOR LESS IS THE NAME OF THE GAME NOW.

Like MrVogler said wtf are these guys thinking. Its a race to the bottom.

What kind of set up you running mate To haul 30 Ton? Thanks

Put them in the bulk business oh yes they already are go in cut the rate get the work push the small more efficient small guy out with there trucking school graduates and big buying power for equipment and everything that goes with having 10 plus thousand trucks a standard practice they are up here at livestock company in Mi doing the same thing or just starting to take it over

All the CHEAP DRIVING JOBS (like JB Hunt..who charge shippers $4.00 to $9.00 pm), who turn around and higher any bodies to put behind a windshield and pay .50 cpm...make millions, ok we all know that, but we also have witnessed JB Hunt put together their flatbed and tanker division. And we all know what happened to those OO and small trucking businesses .....now JB Hunt is putting together their hopper division.... IRS bad enough we have PEOPLE from all over the world coming to the USA and taking alot of trucking jobs away from working class AMERICAN families, ( and if the tables were turned for any other COUNTRY , that country would have something to say too)., but it's just gets really tough to deal with and except. when the middle class working man in America is being destroyed from within our country....we should resist as much as much as we can, but never contribute to their (JB Hunt) success of destruction .....and btw, all their wrecks and fatalities affect our commercial insurances

Wait until amazon and Apple and goober decide they want to do hopper freight, big mega carriers will have the same experience Walmart is having now with amazon.

I cannot help with these loads but I would like to work with J.B. Hunt in the future. I have hoppers, end dumps, tanks, boxes and step decks. I’m located in Baton Rouge La so if we can maybe Tuesday after the holiday please give me a call or send me your number and I will call you. My number is+12257186573 or by email. Thanks and I hope have some luck moving those loads.

So everyone stop and think, corporate carriers started mostly with dry van freight. They then expanded into other areas of the industry cutting rates and putting small carriers and independents out. There profit margins are 3-7cpm. If they see they can drive into another mode of transportation they will do it. Flatbed is the most recent to demonstrate this fact, yet we sit back and allow it to be repeated. Just a humble observation.

Interested...my rate is $2500 per load. ($100 per ton). Minimum 4 loads per week, $150 per hour demurrage.
