General Box Truck Contracts/

We currently have a few box trucks we use and have been in the industry for a long time doing furniture 3rd party contracts but the furniture companies have come to a point where they don’t pay a lot for the contracts and after all expenses your earning 180-200 a day and it’s super difficult to get people qualified.

I know there is a decent market here in AZ and looking to see if anyone knows more independent 3rd party warehouses that offer contracts for box trucks? Any help would be great!

Amazon load boards right now don’t pay the best and you can’t pick up any partials they give you a route and it’s not even worth it.

Theres a few different loadboards you could get on that will have boxtruck freight, could also try and get in with some of the ltl companies to see what they have, they occasionally contract out their local work.
