Excerpt from the Cargo Van class on Dispatchers
If you go online into forums on Facebook, Reddit, X etc it would have you believe it is the Dispatchers that have the freight. Dispatchers are the only way to get freight for your cargo van. This is not True! Dispatchers perform a legitimate and important job in Freight Transportation but they are not licensed or regulated by Federal laws like Freight Brokers are. Carrier Dispatchers look at load boards (loads posted by brokers) and try and negotiate rates with freight brokers on your behalf to keep your cargo van moving. Dispatchers work for the carrier! A Dispatcher works for you Not the other way around.

@Bill Robinson exactly I try to explain to Owner Ops that the dispatcher is using their MC to get freight but then may book it with a different MC in their client base.
Close only counts in horseshoes
We came so close to Canada and the US finalizing a trade deal. Unlike horseshoes close does not count or help either countries economy. The below was pasted by a US economist, this was to show the real trade advantage the US had. Politicians who are to represent "We the People" on both side of the border are certainly not doing this IMO. Canada politicians stated POTUS is taxing his own people. CDN government after break down are now taxing Canadians as they implement tariffs. Unless both governments get back to the table, make a deal for the people, we the people will pay the price. Thoughts? The US would actually be a surplus If you remove fuel and hydro from trade between Canada and the US, the trade deficit for the US would actually be a surplus. In 2023, the US recorded a trade deficit of $36 billion with Canada, but when you exclude energy exports, the surplus is approximately $85 billion. This indicates that the US has a significant advantage in the trade relationship, particularly in services, which has a surplus with Canada.

I wish we were just playing horseshoes! The whole situation has gotten out of hand and continues to be manipulated to the detriment of the citizens of both countries. IMO
Shipping “Live Data” Servers
Recently a web hosting data center here in Phoenix announced closing their doors. Different companies who owned equipment in this center needed their equipment taken out and moved to a new hosting center. This one needed to go from Arizona to New Jersey. These servers host “live data” and the companies web systems are down during this time so transport speed is of the utmost importance. But again protecting all the info in these servers was paramount. ESD bagging is essential to protect live data (Pink Bags). We bagged each server then protected them from shifting with blocks of PE Foam, crated and secured the contents. Expedited this crate to its destination and the company was back up online in a matter of days. Website down? Maybe it’s because the company was forced to move its data servers to the other side of the country. We got it done, safely, securely and fast. Everyone have a Freight Day. #papafreight

Gaylord Boxes
Gaylord Containers are a perfect packing option for many pack and ship jobs we do. The D Container is one of our most utilized bulk cargo boxes because it is a standard sized pallet. When we were hired to close down this call center (your welcome, no one likes sales call centers! lol) we utilized the Gaylord’s to pack up the computer sets. CPUs, Monitors, headsets, peripherals all were packed up into these containers and shipped out. We carry double and triple corrugated D Containers in all of our warehouses for pack and ship jobs exactly like this one. Everyone have a Freight Day. #papafreight

Thank you for letting me in. I’m looking to start a cargo van business around the Boise Id area.
