Jeff's comment about carriers including Express or Expedite in their company name or as a division, prompted me to look thru a list of carriers that use words in their names that are synonomous with service that is faster than normal OTR or LTL transportation. Here is a list of words spotted in...

Expediting seems to be evolving to a point that any single or multi truck company that picks up and delivers freight of any kind, can call themselves expediters. The company, that many in the trucking industry credit with developing the expedite concept in nationwide trucking, is Roberts...

Rich: How 'bout a review of the Supertruck activities since your last post on the issue.

PB: If you lease to an expedite carrier, you will not need any type of DOT number or Any other type of State / Federal special papers / forms / or license. If your carier requires you to have a hazmat qualification, you'll need a class C CDL with a Hazmat endorsement and a supply of logbooks...

Woodworker: Any of the major carriers run in, around and out of the New England States. Here's a link to an incomplete list of some carriers that have been operating in New England. http://www.expeditecarrier.com/search/New_England/

A cat died and went to Heaven. God met her at the gates and said, "You have been a good cat all these years. Anything you want is yours for the asking." The cat thought for a minute and then said, "All my life I lived on a farm and slept on hard wooden floors. I would like a real fluffy pillow...

I have bought two freightliner bug shields from Stoops, across from the Exit 4 Flying J in Indy. They worked great for bugs and ice on the wipers on each of two Ford Vans. About $200 as I recall. I mounted the shield about 40% of the total distance, from the front of hood. The shield bolted...

Simon: I didn't see the same news clip you saw, but I think you are way off base thinking that Vietnam Veterans are all disgruntled and appear at funerals to demonstrate support for a big oil war, or for the current Administration, for that matter. Vietnam era, and other military veterans...

It's much the same with FedEx Custom Critical. If the Customer books the run and the return at the same time, and the return trip delivers within 50 miles of the first pickup, the second half of the run is processed at a 50% discount for the customer. Since we are on a percentage basis, we...

FedEx Custom Critical provides owners and drivers with the number and types of trucks moved out of each Express Center for the current day. The information starts at midnight and is updated every 3 hours. The carrier also provides the real time number of loads by truck type for the current day...

FedEx Custom Critical has a low percentage of automotive related freight, even out of the Detroit area. I'm guessing that your van is sitting at the Detroiter Truck Stop. Eight days is far too long to be sitting there if that is the case. The real WOW may not be with the carrier but with the...

MDS desires $2000 before taxes, so we all presume that means Federal and State personal income taxes. easyrider2697 reminds us of the cost of fuel and fuel taxes coming off the top of gross. Some other items to think of before reaching your net income, before taxes, are operating expenses that...

Part 383.5 - Commercial motor vehicle (CMV) means a motor vehicle or combination of motor vehicles used in commerce to transport passengers or property if the motor vehicle- (a) Has a gross combination weight rating of 11,794 kilograms or more (26,001 pounds or more) inclusive of a towed...

Fastrod. My #11 response was comparable to your situation. Your On-Duty and Driving status was determined by the larger of the two trucks you were driving, so the PU duty was just an extension of the duty in the big truck, much the same as if you were lumping or maintaining the big truck, you...

RE%3A Rain Gear .

MOOT: I think the difference is because you were driving LTL in a truck that was subject to DOT regulations all the time; those regulations provided for dispensing with the log keeping when you ran local. A cargo van is not regulated by the DOT unless carrying HAZMAT, and the driver of any...
