Depends on what your hauling, from and to it's not bad

Trucking is what you make of it stop complaining it’s very easy to whine and cry put in the effort to find the perfect fit for you. I’ve been doing it for 38 1/2 years and I’ve made an incredible living.

True story!

Local loads from COOP's I was averaging $2.89 a mile. Load boards I am having a hard time hitting $2.

@ you ever use bulk loads load board

I have bulk loads and Farm Pro. This whole week was off of Farm Pro. They are very similar to each other.

@ are rates decent

Rates are ok, it's the deadheading and the all-day lines that kill it. I will talk about how my week ended in a video next week.

I wasted a whole day at ADM in Columbus N.E., The amount of sitting is ridiculous.

It is a 2021.

Not 100% sure to be honest. I do know when you load with the loader you have to pull off the scale for him to load the back hopper. When you back up for him to load the front hopper then you are back on the scale so he can get your weight right. My assumption is they just do the same process when you load with the belt to make the process the same at both loadout areas.

@VanIperenTrucking oh ok thx i loaded in the field one time & let him load the back first never again worst ride & way over weight

When I load at farms or at the local elevator I always load front to back and I have never had issues and it's always been consistent on weights.

@@VanIperenTrucking Most of them in AR are pull through and operate like that. I remember when I asked questions my dad was super good at answering them with practical experience too. My mom was better for rote memorization stuff but for experiences besides the 2004 world series and in a lesser time on the Earth.

I have my own authority. I hired NCBS out of Marcus Iowa to dispatch for now to get a feel of how the load boards worked for hoppers.

Out of high school I worked with my dad at a repair shop for a couple years. I did a lot of truck tires.

That is a losing battle lately. It gets worse throughout the week. Thanks for watching!

Thanks, it will definitely test your patients.

It's not adjustable. Drives me nuts. In the Peterbilt 579 I drove for a while it was the same way.

I am running off of Farm Pro. From What I see is majority of hopper load on here are in the Midwest. For Louisiana area I cannot help you there sorry!!

@ thanks keep making them good videos I’m a new subscriber

Running hoppers off of load boards is not near as profitable as having direct contracts. Hoppers is a real cut-thought area in trucking and it's not easy and some real crap hours and a lot of waiting. As for tarps, electric tarp is the only way I would go, just my opinion. You also need to figure out whether you are going to run local, over the road, commodity hoppers, ag hoppers, sidewall height, tandam axle, tripple axle, width, and length. The trailer size and hopper type plays a huge huge roll, but you need to know what you are primarily going to haul. My recommendation is to first look over load boards (Farm Pro and Bulk Loads) and search in your area what there are for companies that would use bulk product and figure out what you would primary haul. With hoppers weight is the name of the game.

@ thank you so much bro yeah I’ve already got in contact with Bulkloads that’s again for the feedback 🙏🏿

No contract. Verbal agreement. I can walk away whenever I want.

@@VanIperenTrucking Cool, I hope you can make good money with it and run the way you want.

@mengoyango wouldn't that be nice.

This is at AGP in Sgt. Bluff

It has been plugged up pretty bad.
