Thanks man! Mostly printed material, our customer doesn't mind loading dryvan freight into the rolltite. Makes it easier to LTL back. Our other customer is drywall and drywall products. Then some occasional forming equipment for my brother's company.

I have found the best return for the money has been hauling flatbeds and jobsite material. The rates aren't cut down to nothing like some other types of freight are. Little to no BS when loading and unloading, and the majority of the product goes to rural areas. With the exception to the occasional city jobsite, usaully lots of room or the street gets shutdown.

I had enough of that crap. This container stuff is supper easy. If I were to switch companies again it would be either long haul van or flatbed...
