So you said yes I'm guessing it depends on the product where whether it's done by the weight per ton or by the yard can you give me any more details on types of products

I have one mulch customer I charge by the yard because the product weight is consistent. Not all are consistent so then a flat rate. Feed etc. by the ton.

we haul mostly bulk loads, but our floors are fork lift rated and we all pallets and boxes also.

Yeah I talked to the Keith walking for manufacturer and they were saying if you had support cross member supports of 12 in then you can actually load them with a forklift like you would are driving and that won't work for anything so yeah I understand what you're saying there
