What kinds of local owner operator loads can you get around here? Aggregate hauling, cement fly ash? Just curious what I could do and how much I could make. Thanks guys Matt

Hauled one back from fort worth area to southern ks for 36 ton. Grain . Can't say as in the past I had a lot of grain loads coming north from there but there seems to be loads now

Matthew - there is a lot of selection; just depends on what equipment you want to buy and what geographic area you want to haul. Lanes change like the weather. Right now the southern area is heavy. Hard to get out of CO. Hard to go north out of TX but yet can go east. In another week or two, north out of TX will be easy because harvest will be in full swing shortly.
