Looking at one of these for furniture hauling and deliveries. It’s a passenger one though. I’ve been doing this for 4 years in my F250 but in the wet season a covered van will be more convenient.

Beware of trackers within packages that can pick up movement, if you get into an accident the package has to be in the right place strapped down per insurance, also buttholes looking at you via camera that will rat you out. It's America brother, your guilty until proven innocent. 😮 (semi trailers have cameras in the rear for this type of thing.)

@@Mr3gfunk I see what you’re saying, thanks for the advice. But im not really worried about it. That might’ve been the biggest box I carried in the front. Everything else were small enough to fit in your hand. Small package but heavy, will definitely be strapped down. That box was actually 10 pounds per airport info.

Can you fill us in on how exactly pay is calculated? Do you have a base pay on the cargo (based on weight/material, etc) + the amount of mileage you're transporting? Or is it just mileage alone? And does your brokerage provide you with load details/pricing statements when you get paid for your loads?
@THE_NGCV
@THE_NGCV 23 күн бұрын
@@Lil_keith sure, so pay is based on mileage. The way it works is, anything up to 300 miles they pay up to $1.20 a mile. Anything over 300 miles they pay up to $0.90 a mile. But….i have gotten up to $2.00 a mile sometimes more for loads less than 300 miles. I’ll just throw a bid in and most times i get it. They pay $25.00 to $50.00 extra if you have to offload stuff by hand or what they call “driver assist” And yes, they provided you with load details and a statement with pay info but through text message which i always save.
