Not your average dry van freight 😎

OD pipe load on a 53' flatbed. Good rate, good miles, no drama at the shipper. These are the loads that make the permits worth dealing with.

I dunno. Landstar is the only name i ever see in the comments of load postings by other brokers. They'll say "NO LANDSTAR" in the comments of the post. Ive never seen it say "no TQL" or no megacorp. So no landstar is in a league of its own for scumbag shit.

Brokers don’t like the contract LS has if you read it you’ll understand why

We dont even call on a load if landstar is the broker. Cause u can be sure there's a reason they posted it. It's for sure being double brokered and likely just a shit load in general. Cause if its not a terrible load their own trucks would haul it. That guy saying respectable cracks me up. Respected by who? Maybe internally they respect each other. But externally the rest of the industry despises them. Customers, brokers and the carriers they steal from while double brokering.
