Do you advise your terms and conditions when you accept a load? Advise your waiting time, TONU, layover, & border wait time when you quote or accept a load.

we do advise and like most they will say anything to cover their load
then when it comes time for layovers/ extra waiting times no one helps

Everyone talking about Walmart and how bad it is. No better at Loblaw the care even less
we have appointment and were on time. still let us sit there after check in for 6 hours before taking 5 hours to off load. Guess what.. No Waiting time or lay over. Something needs to be done.

Hypocrisy at its finest.

Unfortunately, like many industries, we have bottom feeders like that. This forum is full of great brokers who care about their partners. Ones that you know do not, try to get it on the front end; build some extra into your rate.

Up markets are great times to build new relationships, as many are looking for solutions.

I'm sure you can talk to a party where wait time occur. They have to know from the carrier about the treatment received. Unless it's their idea, you may be in luck.
