Hi I've been pulling step deck for 15 years and I'm looking to get into bulk loads. What's the best versatile trailer to get. Also. Why does the rates seem so low on these loads. Are you getting more than they are posting them for. And I'm base out of Kansas City mo.

The rates are crap because the market has been flooded with foreigners that will working for less than nothing. If I were in your shoes I would stay in step deck for now, you could come over here and lose your A$$ before you find dependable lanes and work.

Stay out of anything to do with agraculture,folks pulling hoppers have the cheapest rates and add in the waiting times,your better off with stepdeck for sure.

When you say "bulk" what are you referring to? Ie Hooper, Dump, tanker.....etc.
