Gotcha.

Savannah to Decatur: 476 miles
Decatur to Huntsville: 26 miles
Huntsville to Beaufort: 469 miles
Beaufort to Savannah: 41 miles
____________________________

Total: 1012 miles

$900 + $778 = $1678 - 10% = $1510.20 - 6% factoring = $1419.59

$1419.59 X 2 = $2839.18

1012 miles X 2 = 2024 miles

2024 miles for $2839.18 = $1.40 per mile = cheap freight.

Correct me, if I'm wrong, but it about $1.34 a mile, to the truck(after 16% deduction. If it's for all miles including DH and home, it's just enough to survive... :roll:

i think it could be better. and it will. but im only gone two nites a week. lots of home time. and i think landstar could pay better on my back haul,thats the one that lowers my avg.but it pays better than anything elese iv found, and gets me right back to the house.

Do you really have to factor it? It will cost you about $200 a week.
