Hauling Frack Sand in a Hopper Bottom

They are using hoppers to haul frac sand here they switched from end dumps so they can unload inside a building. It seems to be working out fine.

even outside they jackknifed you over top of a real low conveyor belt unload pretty fast

What are the loading/unloading hours at both ends? any other additional information on this haul?

Rob,
I'm unsure of the lengh of time the trucks will be dedicated. Also there hasn't been any wait time for the trucks for loading or dumping. However, that doesn't mean wait time couldn't happen in the future. We are not offering demuurage pay for these loads. Because of the unknown dedication time period and because there is no dummurage pay included in the rate, we are paying $42/ton for this 216 mile route which comes to $4.87/$5.05 a loaded miles for 25/26 ton payload.

Give me a call if your interested. I still need a couple trucks.

I also have great rates for pnuematics. If you have any or know of any, please send them my way.

Thanks!

Hello iam Matthew lembke iam looking for a used cement tank if you or any body has one please contact me thank you have a good day.

My insurance carrier won't allow me to haul frac sand... Who are you guys insured by?

Just courious.. But what is their reason why? We haul frac sand in pneumatics and as far as I know never had any problems with the insurance.

Have you ever talked to OOIDA? Wonder what they are afraid of? That it contains silica?

Greg who would recommend for doing tanker work up there ND ? As far as the oil fields

Many looking for oil haulers

I no longer need trucks for this route
Thanks,

funny, the LAW says they're required to pay within 7 business days of reciept of invoice and proof of delivery. I can dig out the statute if I need to, but my point is nobody needs to hold on to my damn money for more than a couple days max! It's sad that there's a law on the books and yet nobody holds these bastards to it so they have basically nullified the law!

yeah, you're right about that. I think my point was if a broker is going to have zero invested but a fax machine a computer and a telephone line, the least they could do is pay their damn bills on time. I know there's no penalties anymore for slow payments. For me it's about principle. It's my damn money. If fuel prices start going up again and I have to wait 30 days for a check, that money is worth less than when I did the load. I've gotten to where I can pretty well be ok with waiting, I just frickin hate it. Again it's principle. As soon as I sent the invoice off, it became MY money that they're holding onto INTEREST-FREE! But then if you want to be paid ON TIME, they can do that for you for only a mere 5%. That's some crap if you ask me. If they can pay you 97% in 48 hours they can pay 100% in the same amount of time. There should be a law against that because it's nothing more than fraud if you ask me (which nobody did)!

I will get the actual statute for you tomorrow. It's printed on the bottom of my personal B.O.L's which are all in my truck!

call me at 830-854-1805 to talk about what u have posted. my name is Ramon Alonzo if i dont its because im on fon or busy doing something plez leave massage will call u back

DO NOT HAUL FOR LARSON OR ALEX

bankruptcy. No pay. Screwed a broker out of loads
call stutsman county sheriff office. Get the facts

i would have to see it to believe it , all I have seen is the same or less than grain..... oh wait , i don't haul grain only bi- product but still not enough in sand from what i've seen to make me think about jumping ship.

All I know is we are making more money doing this then we was hauling wheat. But we are only running 100 miles one way @ 42 a ton and I can load 26 tons so that puts me at $1092

Frac sand was paying good from NJ to Horseheads NY. Till the bottom fell out 2 yrs ago. Hopefully it will start up agian it was 24/7 delivery inside.

I ain't sayin 42 a ton is bs , but i'ma need to see a settlement sheet and a check stub to believe it.... I've checked on 12 different sand hauls in tx. and ok , for hoppers and so far the best has been 1.70 on a round and the worst has been 1.51...... i'm doing better that hauling grain and feed ingredients.......I know there are probably some good paying huls ut there , i have just not ran across one yet , but kudos to the ones that have.

The job advertised in this thread is from October of 2014. They are no longer in business.

Working great for me, Halliburton is going to start using hoppers to haul to well site like sand box and arrow up is doing. So it's going to pick up around Oklahoma when that gets going.

Guys who have hauled this in the past, what companies are the end users? Are you always supplying massive producers like Halliburton etc. or are there smaller players? Do the mines up north directly contract with the end user?
