Great video. How do you like using the Big Kenworth truck versus a pickup? I would like to get class 8 truck to do multi+haul. Is it a good time to get into the rv multi-haul business now? Is there any back hauls available? What are the back hauls usually?
I've been out of multi-haul for a couple years and I have been hauling hoppers and seed beans in dry van. Hauling campers on a step deck feels like you are running empty all the time. It's great haha. It's hard to answer if it's a good time or not, it is definitely slower that it was 2 years ago, but there is really no good area in trucking right now. Leasing on to companies really limits what you can take for reloads, pretty much just cars off of central dispatch and the rates for those are down as well. You really need to manage money right now that is for sure.
@@pineridgegarage Not sure if one or the other is better. They both have pros and cons. The biggest con for me with seed is, you don't get to pick where you go, you are trying to get into small farm yards that are not meant for a 53' van to be in, if it is a blizzard you are expected to still make deliveries, you are relying on 20 drop offs (farmers) to maintain a schedule and that never works . The pros of seed is it pays really well per mile and you get an email a week ahead showing where you are going, and you never have to look for loads. It's personal preference really.
putting a 2016 shipshe together what a pain 12 k #14 disc break axle dexter sucks so hard to find parts and a lot of money

Why are you getting out of the seed and bean hauling? Is the multi-haul any better?

What do they pay per mile for hauling triples?
@@tomhouck7309 Between 2.74 and 2.89 per mile.
$2.74 - $2.89, it depends on the brand.
