Bring on Turkey-vember

[RoadTime]

At home, hoping to turn the tables on a desperate shipper

 

[NorthernBill]

Named our price earlier today, they jumped on it. MyMy what did I leave on the table? Happy to have that 3 hrs behind us, do not like shorties.
Still near Trenton, NJ.

Be careful bill tomorrow is technically the last day of the Week be careful you don't get stuck without a load for 4 days

Thanks, we new that shorty could be a loser as it was a afternoon run. But with the price we asked, I thought no way. LOL
Worked out, we are booked for a Friday morning pick to MO. drop Monday morning. With about $ 225 worth for holdover and warehouse fees.
Thanksgiving with Carolees extended family with no interruptions.
Wishing everyone a great Thanksgiving!

Actually I lied, I got a call, but over 300 miles away from home and it delivered direct, they didn't like my rate
