Shipping Rates for HEMTT per Loaded Mile

[dk8019]

Getting quotes in the $2.60 range, does that seem fair these days?

That's very fair most trucking is $2-$4 for a ftl shipping load. Your going to get closer to $2 if the driver has a back haul and closer to $4 if he's going to dead head.

I'd say that's good, where from/to?

 

[dk8019]

Texas to Virginia, a little over 1000 miles.

I'd say that's really good then. I'd take it.

Congratulations on owning a "monster truck". That is quite a distance to pay delivery. But driving it back MIGHT! be a little expensive. Post up pictures when you can, unloading on arrival etc.

That is more than fair, considering fuel is .50/mile, insurance/IFTA/payments/repairs/tires/oil changes cost about $1.40/mile. Oh I forgot feeding the bears, that is figured in the 1.40.

No sense in risking the drive, I budgeted the shipping at $3k when bidding, the risk, of moving one that far far exceeds my budget. One big thing breaks, and I've got far more out of pocket expenses to deal with! Thanks for the feedback guys!

Looks cheap to me...

I've shipped many things. 2.50 mile to take up a whole truck is on the low end.

At that price you better book them now because you will not find any cheaper.
