My buckets are pretty much parked. Why run them at 1.50cpm when my flatbeds are running for much, much more. Hell half the time Im loading coils in my dumps just to make ends meet and get them home. Not to mention the coils pay alot more than the bulk. So might as well leave em parked.

I have 2 new trailers we bought special for a particular customer and then pulled 2 months before the crunch hit. Haven't loaded either trailer in 8 months now. To add insult to injury the grand poobah called and asked if I'm getting in a bind and offered $1.70 on some one way hazmat. I won't repeat how the conversation went from there.
