Question:
6/9/2011
Hello shipper, Is each container 21'(foot) in length. If so I'm coming up with 4 container per 48' flatbed with 6' of space left. Two containers would sit on the deck, and two will be stacked on lower ones with a height of 9'2". Or the containers are 21" (inches) long.ThanksReport a Violation
Response: The containers are 21 ft long. I will stack 2 additional containers in side the each one container. I can load 6 on a flatbed. However I will use most of the deck in overall load length.6/9/2011Report a Violation
Response: : Thanks for the respond. Yeah that would work, I just didn't know how they were loaded. I wanted to be for sure. Thanks6/9/2011Report a Violation
Question:

I was checking to see if that time frame would work for you. I have talked to a few more carriers and they are interested also. Report a Violation
Question:
6/10/2011
Good morning, are you still going to try and work this next week. ThanksReport a Violation
Response: Good Morning, yes I am working on it. Lets confirm what trucks you can send. Are they all 53ft step decks? Also need 43ft lower decks to keep the over hang to a minimun. Can you confirm we can get all the trucks in by thursday? I will need you to rebid the run for the total amount. Thank you6/10/2011Report a Violation
Response: : We are ready to rock n roll. I'm making a safe bid and saying 10 loads. Any loads that are not hauled can and will be refunded, credited, or I do understand that they do not have to be paid because of said amount. As of now I can confirm 5 flats(48) and 4 steps(53) and have that job done by Thursday. Thanks 6/10/2011Report a Violation
Question:
6/10/2011
Just checking back with you. My guys are trying to figure out what to do. ThanksReport a Violation
Response: Good afternoon, Hold off till Monday. I made a mistake, I thought the first price you posted for per truck load. Your new number is over my budget. I will have to get w/ my customer for the additional cost. I will get back to you on Monday. Thanks6/10/2011Report a Violation
Response: : How about you relisting your shipment for one load6/10/2011Report a Violation

Good day. we did some rethinking and negotiating and come up with a new bid and deal. We going to place a bid for 8 loads at 4800 per load. The total bid will be 39,409. There will be 4 steps and 4 flats. Sending them in by three's soon as you get that crane set up. I hope that help you and your customer. ThanksReport a Violation
Question:
6/13/2011
Good morning, I have three trucks on hold waiting to here from me that can get loaded today. ThanksReport a Violation
Question:
6/13/2011
Hello, just checking in with you to see the status of your load. The trucks I had on hold have departed but are in Florida. Thanks, Have a great day.Report a Violation
Response: Hello, How many trucks were you thinking to handle these loads? Also what type of trailers? When can you have trucks ready to load? Thanks, Chris6/14/2011Report a Violation
Response: : I was planning on sending in 4 48' flats and 4 53' stepdecks like you requested. I could try to get it lined back up like I had planned. I think we would have been able to do it in two days, just depending on how long it would have took to load. I will return with the quickiest confirmed day that I could start again with all trucks lined up, but I may could send one or two on tomorrow. I know you have crane charges to consider, so I would like to have all trucks confirmed first. Thanks6/14/2011Report a Violation
Response: Can you do any better on the price? Or I can use all 53ft step decks(7total). What are the payment terms? Thanks, Chris6/14/2011Report a Violation
Response: : I may can arrange for all 53' step decks. I can send you credit app once shipment is confirmed. We do wire transfer, and credit cards. I seen you mention something about the credit app. It only take one hour to process. Would you like for me to see could I confirmed all step decks.6/14/2011Report a Violation
Question:
6/15/2011
Good morning, you want bid for 7 loads, correct.Report a Violation
Response: Good Morning, I was trying to respond back to your question last night and finally realized I had to repost the ad. I can use either the 4 53ft & 4 flats or 7 53ft stepdecks. Can you do any better on price? I will have another batch of loads as soon as these loads are loaded. Also my customer is paying for the freight, he will wire the payment once the containers are loaded on the trucks, is this agreeable? Thanks, Chris6/15/2011Report a Violation
Response: : What's the amount that you are trying to work with, and let me see could I work with your price.6/15/2011Report a Violation
Question:
6/15/2011
It would also be easier for me to bring in 4 (48') flats and 4 (53') stepdecks rather than all step decks. I would have to arrange for the trucks to come in and exchange trailers and that would add to mileage and time.Report a Violation
Question:
6/15/2011
I think our messages are getting crossed up. The current bid is for 7 step decks. I don't mind arranging trucks for this amount.Report a Violation
Question:
6/15/2011
With payment arrangements, could we still do the credit app. and once all the trucks are loaded if you want to wire the money you still can. This way we both are protected.Report a Violation
Response: I do not see a problem with that. Also I will have additional 50+ containers from the same area of Florida delivering to Baker, Mt. Once this batch is done. Thank you, Chris6/15/2011Report a Violation
