  • Due to popular request, I have made this video louder. Please make sure to turn on that HD setting as well as there will be many clips from the loadboard.
    Today we do a test of how much money can be made on a flatbed. Well, according to the results I will be on my way to purchase one of those babies shortly!

    you found the good loads right away. Flatbed cooled down a little, but you can still find some good paying loads

    many factors go into it not just pay. tarp size, weight, route and fuel price in that area. thats why i could never have someone who hasnt been flatbed driver book loads for me .

    Right now I see a lot of people are migrating towards flatbed. In the last 3 weeks flatbed rates have come down by 30 cents on average. eventually I believe they'll all equalize, except for tarp pay. also please note flatbed gets very slow in winter. I would reconsider Getting into flatbed right now at least.

    I have a question is there is any better way to look for team driver loads. Me and brother are team drivers but having so much hard time finding team loads that can be delivered in couple of days instead of 5-6 days delivery date. Mostly loads are listed for solo drivers.
    I appreciate your all helpful videos

    Nice! Let’s crush FB market together! Just got one too ) But what makes me calm is that at least I’ve managed to get a professional flatbed driver, who knows how to tarp and tough enough to flatbed during rain, snow etc…

    Great insight on how you would book loads! Not sure, but have you ever done a live call with brokers on negotiating loads to where we could hear both ends? Is that something you'd be open to? I've seen you call them before about loads, those videos were great!

      the way these rates are tanking on a weekly basis we are lucky to be at 3rpm. Alot of these brokers do not care about bottom line since these smaller carriers who dont know flatbed too well are moving these low paying loads.
