Still better than aluminum beverage can bales, Sent a driver to load and the shipper ran when he opened the door to all the bugs, this was after the washout. Never again....

I just had an email come through today; Barrie to Lathrop Ca, $3400. Guess it just keeps getting better! And this works out to $1.29 mile btw...

Would've been a cash cow if not for the 6 hours of loading and offloading time no doubt.
How about 75 bucks for local shunt...Mississauga to Oakville.....one 40,000lbs steel coil!! "but it only takes up 8' of truck".......sigh.....
perfect for the trucks that self drive and run on air and water bubbles

When something ridiculous is presented my counteroffer is ridiculous also. One skid.. 600 lbs.. from Kitchener to Hamilton.. $45.00 offer... my counteroffer... $1500.00.

Aw c'mon buddy the most I can go is $55.00, I gotta make something on this.

I had a customer at one point where I did scrap aluminum to the mill and it actually wasn't so bad. Trailers needed a wash but there was a wash on site and we were re-imbursed.
The worst:
Hides - not only the smell, but the maggots
Watermelon hand-bombed - always would crush the lower ones and would make a mess - not to mention many receivers would backcharge for the spoilage
Carbon black pretty much guarantees the trailer can't haul food grade again
Peat moss always made a big mess too

Hauled carbon black out of PA many times never had any issues with the trailer, guess it depends shipper to shipper.

Right? Stick your 2 skids of freight in the mailbox and see if they'll deliver with 150 bucks worth of stamps stuck on them. Next day no less.
