Welcome to Landstar! I’ve been here just over a year, and love the freedom. There is a learning curve, but once you get comfortable it’s no big deal. Some agents will burn you, just move on and put them on your do not haul list.
How do I get to know the distance between two points using the equipment ...most times I plot with system before I could know the distance but most client will want to know the length of the measurements immediately.
New to your channel. Ended my authority looking at landstar. You're the 2nd guy on youtube who's said they had to get the inspection done on a trailer they just picked up.
Great to hear you got a trailer so quick. It'll take a bit to learn the agents, and their habits. Some are an absolute pleasure to work with, while others are a complete nightmare. Don't be hesitate to get corporate involved if things really go sideways between you and an agent. Because they sure won't hesitate to call corporate on you. I've only had to get corporate involved 3 times in 2 years. And I really hate doing that. Grown men should be able to own their mistakes, and work them out. But there are a few that won't.
Hey CJ, about a month behind the process then you are! I definitely subscribed to follow along how your experience is. Awesome you got a trailer so quickly! Looking forward to more of your videos and will be part of the Blue Star soon! Be safe!
Are a lot of the loads preloaded / drop and hook? Or do u do a lot of live loading and unloading? (For dry van). How are the trailers? Are they in really good shape, clean and in good working order? Thanks for the info!
