Default Local Trucking Help

As some of you guys know, I am in the trucking biz. I own a couple trucks, do dump work and flatbed, etc. Also have several ENGLISH speaking owner operator friends looking for work. (rare these days) Been working thru brokers that constantly have their hands deep in our pockets, cutting rates, so much that it has got to the point that our profits have fell off to almost nothing.

If anyone has any connections or is looking for reliable trucking, please let me know. Even if it is hauling boats, snow removal, equipment, etc.
