For starters... WHAT IS THE PRODUCT? Does this dedicated lane even have a backhaul? Plenty of bulk loads going from the Midwest to the south, but very few coming back. According to TCI Capital the current average dry-van rates in the Midwest are right around $2.80 a mile... So good luck finding trucks with an expensive trailer willing to run for less than $3 a mile.

$2.83/mile? What a joke.

I believe the poster Diamond B is a dispatch service, which most likely is getting the loads in question from a broker, both of which are trying to make a buck off the deal, which would explain the low rate. I could not find Diamond B on Safer.

Please don't take my word for it, due your own due diligence. And remember, "Corn Pop was a bad dude"..If you don't know who Corn Pop is, Google it...😎

Exactly. A dispatcher illegally brokering loads on open forum and Bulkloads just lets it happen.
