In Reply to: hauling rate? posted by jon f mn on July 15, 2015 at 13:54:41:
Well, I'm not a professional trucker, I just do a little hauling with my 1 ton and gooseneck for myself and friends. But here's what I would do: I'd figure up my costs to run the truck. (I don't remember offhand what my cost is, which is what I ask when hauling. But I do have it written down.) I would charge your normal hauling rate for the miles out of your way that you're going, then charge half that rate until delivery. So, if you charge $2.00 a mile normally, and drive 300 miles extra with his load, I'd charge $600+ $1.00 a mile for the number of miles you share. Unless it's 150 extra miles empty to pick up his load and 150 extra loaded miles, then I'd probably go whatever your empty rate is plus whatever your loaded rate is plus half of your loaded rate for the loaded miles you share. But that's just me, I don't haul for a living. -Andy
