A man wanting hay picked up and hauled now wants me to do it for a $700 flat fee. I would be unloaded for the trip up (425 miles) and loaded on the way back (425 miles) so 850 round trip. I will be using my truck and his trailer. If I do it I'll only do it three times in November. After expenses I would clear about $400. I know I posted something similar but this is the latest proposal. I don't have to load or unload. Go up Friday afternoon and get back Saturday afternoon. I realize it's not even $1.00 a mile but it is his trailer and no loading. How in the heck do these guys pay someone $2.00 a mile and not lose money?
