Cheap Freight of the day

Had our first experience with Twins after being in a bad spot, went pretty much how I expected it to go
Rob got a fair rate is how I took it.
My guess is there was 2 loads and the customer "split" between 2 brokers. Twins probably has 2k in the load.

We where close top 2k and was less than 20 minutes from PU and delivery location is not GTA so that is a bonus to us as well. Rounder $2.96 / mile works for me.

Edit: RXO, you know, if you wanna book these babies.

The broker should be ashamed of themselves and told so called client that trucking has a cost and 100 bucks is not worth starting a truck for never mind actually pulling a load. Gosh I hope those loads are still sitting on a dock but bet some dumbass took them. Just call the Repo Depot if you took them as your broke just have not figured it out yet.

I am more shocked, seeing the delivery window on the second one. Not even one hour. That person who quoted this rate must be jailed for this serious offence in the court of common sense law.

These last few months have really been eye opening... a couple of my long term accounts have dropped me like a hot potato because I wouldn't budge on my pricing. Others have been more accommodating. In these tough times it becomes clear who one's friends are.. and which accounts truly value their suppliers.

Just live for the day (sooner rather than later) that we get to exist in a carrier's market again. We have long memories..
I just paid 1400 for 20ft dedicated from Lindsay - Saint Jerome QC - 4.14 a mile.
Kinda wild that BC-NC is 2000.

I paid similar for a flatbed from Burlington to Brossard last week. Now I feel like a shitty broker..should have been able to move it for $451.01 if only I had the proper carrier relationships..

Man get someone to haul it for $297.30. Treat yourself.

My sense is that the turn around is just around the corner.. we've been through this so many times before... 1997... 2005... 2012... 2015.. Looking forward to selling into a strong robust market once again.. at least something that can withstand reasonable rates.
