I agree with you. If you're a one or two truck owner it was less of a headache to get our plates with Panther for only $25.00 a week than it was to deal with IRP. Now, That I'm doing the same job that Deb at Panther does, I understand the process more. To get our online account with Ohio IRP was...

Plates are also based off of the miles you ran from the previous year of the fleet. $50.00 a week for a single axle straight truck is really high. We only charge $26.00 for a single axel straight truck and $32.00 a week for a tandem axel straight truck. $50.00 is what we charge for a tractors...

We have a few owners that will take a solo driver. I will pm you the info.

John I agree with you 100% on doing it the right way by offering good service to your customers and operating with the right insurance. Following the rules that DOT sets in place is a must. We run e-logs in all of our trucks to stay in compliance with DOT regulations. As your slogan at Load1...

John, you have helped many people and owner operators over the years yourself. I will say that you don't look as another small carrier as a competitor, you look as them as a business partner. That is why Load1 has moved into being the number one carrier voted by the drivers and the third largest...

When I started out in Expediting back in 1995 Lawrence Mc cord was still driving a cargo and Expediters Online may have been a dream then. Who, would have ever thought that Expediters Online would grow so big and help so many. Mayfield Express would have never grown this big without the use of...

I celebrated twenty years in expedited freight last month starting out with Roberts Express. As times change, so do carriers. I spent almost fourteen years with Roberts Express/FedEx Custom Critical and made a good living. We left FedEx in 2008 and moved our trucks to Panther Expedited Services...

Since becoming a freight agent/ broker for Sunteck Transportation I send out a carrier packet to everyone that we do business with. After we get it back we send it over to the legal department for them to review and do a credit check. Reading their carrier packet is very important as it may have...

Here is a cool picture of one of our trucks that was moved from our old carrier. https://www.facebook.com/mayfieldexpress/ph

I don't know much about them myself. They have been around for years and I have never heard one bad thing about them. I know this don't help you much.

I will just say what John Elliott says all the time, " It's not what you make, it's what you keep".

Mayfield Express is looking for a few Sprinters. As we have made the jump from fleet owner to being partnered with Sunteck Tansportation. Sunteck Transportation is a 400 million dollar company that has the best fuel discount in this business. Our first Sprinter is signing on this Monday and we...

I have been to all 48 state and DC. As for Canada I have been to nine Provinces. Going to Newfoundland was my favorite as the nine hour boat ride was awesome. Stopping at the Fifth Wheel in Milton, Ont was great as the Sunday brunch with the coffee was always the best.

Congratulations to you and your wife. Living in the Children's Home from the age of ten till I was eighteen I can understand why you wanted to adopt your grand daughter. Best of luck on picking a name.

Ones that tuck up under the truck as it really kind of hard to back into a dock with a vertical rail lift-gate truck. There are many types of lift-gates. Go to this years Expedite Expo to check out the different vendors who sell lift-gates.

I would have to say yes. We have seven trucks with lift-gates and they all do very well. Lift-gates can help you get the longer loads. We have a truck out in Oakland, California sitting right now. If that truck would of had a lift-gate they would be headed to Pa on a 2300 plus mile load...

Hawk, yes is EO is for helping others. We all know that Load1 has the highest FSC in the business and it helps paying the fuel, but owner aren't making money on it as you seem to think. I could talk about this for hours, but I won't. Driver's paying the fuel and getting 100% of the FSC can make...

I have stayed out of this for the most part. I get what you're trying to say Hawk, but in Tom and Tina defense there not hiding anything. They pay 40% of the linehaul and they pay the fuel and tolls. We do the same thing with our trucks, but its 40% of everything except fuel surcharge. The...
