Note to brokers:

Posted on Mon, Mar 4, 2019 at 5:10 PM CST in Pittsfield, IL

Note to brokers:

This is to all brokers that post on Bulkloads: When posting a load, please do not put the point of pick up 50 to 100 miles away from where it actually picks up. the same goes with the destination. Also, please remove loads after you have covered them. it saves us time, and reduces phone calls to you.
