SUCCESSFUL DRIVERS ARE GOOD AT DOING THIS!

[@paulcoalson5506]

No greater feeling after arriving at the drop off getting unloaded then have the stress level drop and the van feels lite as a feather as you drive away .

[@EverythingApax]

Amen to that! It truly is a good feeling.

[@Ben-qw3py]

I run 50-300 mi loads and watching this makes me realize how underpaid most expeditors are. The sacrifice is big.

[@samuelkendrick7297]

Things not to do.......great info.

[@seekandcrush]

If you're not an hour early, you're an hour late.

[@EverythingApax]

That's right!

[@DavidSmith-vo3nd]

Hi Allen, Great topic, I used to call that truckers math lol!! Yes never leave you load alone if the Repo man is looking for you!! Hahahaha!!! Peace, Love, & Expediting!

[@EverythingApax]

Great advice!😁😁✌

[@JLip-ww9ul]

Keep your van payment up.

[@msilenaelliott6406]

i know im late seeing this but Thank you! i think this is Valuable Information and I Appreciate you more than you will ever know! (By the way, you look Really good in this video.. fresh, healthy, alert... sometimes you look tired)

[@EverythingApax]

Appreciate the kind words. Thank you

[@JLip-ww9ul]

Liked the video I do basically the same thing you do. I try to get as close in to my drop especially if it is a big city before I take my 2 hr nap. The only way I stop way out is if I just get dog tired before I get there. I like to travel at night if possible less traffic. I just pray the Deer stay on the side of the road and the drunk drivers and texters hold their lanes. I have had to do the hotel stay only once with the load. Ran from Chicago to Laredo and then got hit with a preplan right back to Chicago. Had 4 skids and no room for a bed. Took a 10 hr. Break in the room didn't have a choice. I communicated this to dispatch before I stopped and they understood. Key that I say and you just backed that up Communication Communication, Communication. Great video.

[@EverythingApax]

Good stuff! Yes I'm afraid of those deer too!!🤣🤣

[@JLip-ww9ul]

Put me a couple of them Deer whistles on my van. Had a guy tell me make sure they are straight and flat when you put them on or they will not work. I still pray though because God can talk to deer. If a deer has a pack of dogs behind him he is not studying a deer whistle.

When you are working you need to treat it like a job... Not a vacation.

Yep when I know that sun is going to rise is my worst time !

[@EverythingApax]

Me too. My kryptonite

[@kouroshmk4106]

Thanks Allen, you picked the great topic. I usually try to pass big cities night time. But as you said, yeap, it is a (24/7) job that time requires to be managed.

[@EverythingApax]

Ty. This is a lifestyle no doubt.

[@b52tricopter]

That's exactly what I wanted to know. Thanks

Glad I could help 😁

[@unidentifiablerose9387]

Thanks For The Great Info. How ya liking the New Transit?

[@EverythingApax]

I need to get it built out!😁 I miss my comfort of my 17. Lol

[@bbqworld2103]

Good video! If you run into major traffic, and get delayed, do you have pay late charges, or something like that? Thanks

[@EverythingApax]

As long as you're communicating with dispatch what you're dealing with there is no service failure.

[@bbqworld2103]

@@EverythingApax thanks for responding.. I might have missed it, but could you make a video on good places or ways to get a good van for $6k? Be safe out there, thanks

[@kenhannigan9484]

Are all runs scheduled so quickly for delivery?

[@EverythingApax]

No they are not. Expediting in a van involves sitting regularly between loads.

[@kenhannigan9484]

Everything Apax could You tell be the best company to get on? Going through a lot of personal problems and it might help to get on the road

Always take your spoils at the end of the run.

Hi! Can you please tell me who or where are you getting your loads from? I'm looking for a company so I can start ASAP. Thank you.

Right!!!???😁😁😁

[@stevedavenport1202]

I think its crazy they would expect you to drive 18 hours in a 24 hour period. I know that you are not D.O.T. regulated, but thats not very safe.

[@EverythingApax]

It's not that they "expect" it from everyone. They understand which drivers can handle what. Also, it's not every day this happens, at least with Barrett it doesn't.

[@stevedavenport1202]

@@EverythingApax I think I could pull an 18 hour day once a month, but 12 hours per day of driving would be my lumit.

[@EverythingApax]

@@stevedavenport1202 it's what you're capable of doing is what it boils down to.

[@beamerb8152]

You are right about the lack of common sense out here in these streets. 😂

[@EverythingApax]

Lacking badly

[@dbmtruck1751]

Just want to make sure I understand. DOT regulations (fmcsa) mandating 16hr max drive time in any given 24hr period for any person engaged in interstate commerce just doesn't matter in the expiditing industry?? Just trying to get the real facts vs what the govn't says. 1200miles/75mph=16hrs + 8hrs required off duty = 24hrs So expidite companies bid 24hrs for 1200 miles at 50mph??? Numbers don't add up unless you throw out the rule book. Right?? Just trying to be clear. Its the old 'Wink Wink Nod Nod' Since you arn't required to keep logs, how would they ever know. Right??

[@EverythingApax]

Correct. No logs.

[@tonyv3427]

You must be careful driving 16hrs in any day you definitely don’t want to get into a wreck from being tired behind the wheel. If to many accidents happen the FMCSA will start to take notice and ultimately require logs from all expedite vehicles. Making money is important but doing it safely is more important.
