[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 3139090, member: 58386"] In the past single route line haul contractors who in most cases drove the route themselves would contact the hub they hauled in and out of . The hub in turn would try to find another contractor to fill in or send out one of the several trip lease non assigned route tractors standing by. . The movement to multi route line haul contractors seems to be in full force and a a result they now have to find additional assets to fill in on their own . At our small ground station we had just nightly line haul taking outbound to the hub. He drove that route every night for 18 years . When age and stress caught up with him he sold to a banker who was also a multi route non driving absentee line haul contractor. In the 2 years since he took over he is now on his 6th driver running that route. [/QUOTE]
