I'm in the transporting business.If anyone has anything they need transported across the state, contact me. You have to pay for fuel and transport fees.
I have a F350 dually, so I can pull just about anything.

I have a 1960 Willys jeep up near Toledo Ohio that I need hauled down, are you interested in out-of-state?
Sorry, I've been on the road. Contact Chris @ (727)236-8710. Tell him Chino told you to contact him to see if we can transport for you.

Wow, coast to coast! The time away from the family must be hard, but I guess you are seeing alot of the country now that most people never see.
Do you do "girlfriends"?
I don't care where you transport her, just as long as it's far away from here.

OHHHHHHHH you mean transport a girlfriend.................. :R
It's kewl seeing the country. It would be better with the family, but they will travel with me once in a while. I took Jaida to N.Y., Jersey, Texas, and back.
I stopped at a rest area in Little Rock Arkansas, and woke up with Chad Reeds' RV parked next to me. He has a picture of him on his bike so big, it almost touches the top to bottom. I took some pics that I will post soon.
The money is good too. I need to sell my Tahoe and buy a nice strong truck. Anyone want to buy it?
I'll transport your girl for you too, as long as you have a cage to put her in!! :D :D :D :D
Glad to hear everythings working out & that you got work.
Be careful, I know how some people driving car's are w/ 18 wheeler's , you gotta have patience.
Pretty cool to see the country though & get paid for it.
OH cool i didn't know you had a class A license like Hoss400, i was under the impression you were driving like a box truck ..This will be a fun time with Jaida until she returns to school..........baby bro is way too young to go , is big sis going on any rides with ya'll too??
I'm not. It's mostly pulling boats and trailers, and odd stuff across the state.I'm actually trying to get a F-350 like the one Bill has. I'm looking at a 94 diesel.
Jaida went on one trip with me, but it's more money taking her along. I'll take her every once in a while.

Chino, my friend bought a big Ford F-650 or something like that to pull his boat, it's like a '85 I think.
Has the 5th wheel thing on it, it's a diesel, cleanest motor I've seen for a diesel work truck.
It's a BIG truck(air brakes) not like a pick-up truck.
His boat trailer is one of those kind that are adjustable for big boats, not a trailer made for just 1 boat, made to be adjusted for different BIG boats.
Sounds like just what you need.
He only wants $4,000.00 for the truck, body(basically just a cab & big fenders are strait), painted red but faded.
I don't think the truck has over 100k miles on it.
He's a dealer,picked it up at the auction about 6 months ago.
His dealership is on Hwy.41 in Floral Cty./Inverness.
PM me if your interested & I'll give you his #.
I didn't think there would be much call for something like that,,,,how exactly would you get into doing that?
I have a decent hauler truck and cal haul regular trailer hitch stuff, maybe even fifth-wheel if I get a hitch.
Id@
I forgot the website address but it's a board for people that have stuff to be transported across the country,odd things like from a Violin to a truck, you name it. Pretty cool site but you have people bidding against you on hauling it.
When it come's to big boat's your dealing w/ people that $$$ is not a problem, they'll pay whatever you want if you can get it there the quickest.
interesting, sounds kinda cool.
Id@
I can hook you up with my Bossman if you want Ida. But let me tell you...it is a lot of driving.Give me a call (727)204-0883.
Kelly, give me your friends number and I'll call him to see what he has.
I had a job moving some old lady in Key West to California. The bid was for $6,500. Some scumbag underbidded me by $2000. and got the job. Freakin lowlife trash working for beer money and destroying the work industry.

COOL WE HAVE A HOOK UP TO GLAMIS DUNES
Hows the transport bussiness gig going Chino?
Good. I'm in the process of buying a big truck like a 3500 for hauling. When I get a new quad, it's staying in the back and going everywhere I go. If I see a riding spot, I'm jumping out.
When you need a transport to Glamis...you just let me know. What an excuse to give the wife!!
Glad to hear that things are going good for ya!
Chino, that web-site I was talking about is www.uship.com, there might be more boards like that, check out www.craigslist.com too.
One thing you could do to your new truck that a lot of people do is take it to Tampa Spring Co. & have them put a heavy duty spring on the rear end (helper spring) it will be better for towing.
Also most 3/4 ton's & up already have them but make sure if it's an automatic that you have a tranny. cooler on it, I run the tranny on my old Bronco (E4OD,tranny) w/ a cooler that doesn't go thru the radiator, I'm not a mechanic but to me it doesn't make much sense to have your tranny cooler lines running thru a 200 degree radiator. Get the biggest, aftermarket tranny cooler you can find & run it thru that instead, florida heat & stop & go traffic, pulling a trailer is hard on the tranny, it's get's hotter if you go out west or climbing mountains w/ a trailer.
Yeah, I know, I rebuilt the tranny on my Tahoe, and had it reinforced and had a cooler put in.
When I get some extra cash, I want to install a tranny cooler on my silverado.
Transport atvs? Might buy one in tex or somewhere I can find one cheaper than here.
I can do that easily, even test it out for you on the way back...there's a lot of riding area's coming back!! ;) ;)
Just kidding. But yes, I can.You have to pay for the fuel and transport fee's.
I have a axle in Phoenix, Arizona that I need to bring into florida.
How much does it weigh? Send me the pick-up, and delivery address so I can calculate the miles and how much it will be.
600 lbs 1890 miles
Do you have a way of loading, and unloading it into and out of my truck?
yes the seller load it and I have a fort lift to unload

Well, the fuel there and back is about $1200., according to the miles your giving me and it will probably take me about four to five days to get there and back.I'd charge you about $450. for the transport fee's, plus food and hotels.
If I have a run out that way that I can pick this up on the way back, I'll cut the cost in half. Let me know.
So you pay yourself 100 bucks a day and out of that comes food, hotel, truck payment, and maintenance? Sounds like you are shortchanging yourself.
No,, your right, I forgot to add that in, my bad. The $450. is only for the transport fee's. I have to have both addresses too, so I can determine the miles back, and forth.
I would have to do some more calculating. Thanks.
ok
Do you have a car hauler??
I think my boss has one. We could always rent one if we need to.
I get about 6 cars a week and pay 75 per car for delivery from Orlando to Sebring.
if you know of some way for me to get back to Orlando,,,,I'd drive them ;-)

Need some work. Anyone need anything transported anywhere?
chino, i was looking at this a while back. sounds like it may work good for you
http://www.horizontransport.com/index.asp
Too many qualifications. I can't be authorized for that company, their very strict!! Ridiculously strict just for hauling trailers.
Chino, I don't know if your working for yourself or for someone else & just looking for side work, I can tell you that the only way your going to make any decent $$ is by working for YOURSELF, but I guess you gotta start somewhere, have you looked at www.uship.com website out yet or not ? Another thing you can do is call some courier companies, I know of one around here called "N-E Where Transport" my mom use to use them for delivering cases of paper from her print shop to her customer's. But they got to big for her small order's so now she just uses a regular courier co.
Too bad were not gonna get any hurricanes this year, you could be chasing them if you had a big dump trailer like Cutngrs has, rent a Bobcat & make enough $$ on 1 storm to buy your own bobcat & trailer.
Good Luck !
I have access to a big trailer. It's a 20 foot long dual axle steel trailer big enough for a tractor. I do work for someone, but he wants me to come up with the money for fuel to get to the first delivery, then he reimburses me when I get back. It was a run from Cincinnati to Washington State. It would be like $1200. for fuel.
I just dropped all my cash on getting my truck. He's trying to find a run that's not so far away. If he does, he'll pay for the fuel so I can get started again. I'm always looking for sidework!!
HAVE YOU CHECKED WITH LOCAL EQUIPMENT DEALER ON TRANSPORTING EQUIPMENT THEY SELL. LIKE BOBCAT, CATERPILLAR. FLAGLER(VOLVO), LINDER(KOMATSU) JONN DEERE AND KUBOTA THEY ARE ALWAYS MOVING EQUIPMENT HOPE THAT HELPS

I would take the load, and get reombursed when I got back ;)
so would I dude.
Id@
I want to.The problem is, I don't have $1200. for the fuel to get me to Washington State. I just shelled out $1700. to get my truck. I'm tapped out!! :'( :'( :'( :'(
He's trying to find a shorter run that's maybe halfway and doesn't cost so much, then he'll try to get me some cash.

you can always go to Guido that hangs out at Satriale's drinking coffee all day wearing sweat pants and a big old chain,,,,,dunno what he does for a living but he always answers "Waste disposal" ;-)
Id@
how much time do you have before the Washington State trip gets handed to another person?
Id@
I'm not sure. He has more runs. But there all far runs, and he doesn't have much cash to fork out.
not trying to tell you what to do, but if he doesnt have the money to pay for fuel upfront, I would worry about getting paid afterwards also. there is tons of money to be made in transporting stuff though and I am sure you will do good.
I want to know how you dont have to have a dot # , and an authority. Unless your working under your boss`s authority.
What did the commercial ins. run ??
I work under him. The comm. Ins. was $1100. He has always paid me, it's forking out $1200. bucks before knowing the job is done.
I see, Can you pm me the company that you got your ins. through ??
I am working on getting my own authority and DOT #, When thats taken care of I`ll give you a shout to see where your at employment wise...
Give me a call(727)204-0883 Chino
I may buy some atvs out of state that need transporting I'll let you know.
Chino, I`ll call you tomarrow. ;)
Let me know.
how much would it be to pick up a atv or motorcycle from say texas or somewhere? we are thinking of starting a small business on the side and buying bikes that need work or that are just great deals and fixing them up and re selling them. and playing with them while we have them ;D. would you use a semi or just a pick-up truck to get them?

Sounds like an awesome idea. My friend does the same thing with cars and makes good money.
To make it worth while, you would have to be buying at least 6 to 7 of them. You pay for the fuel and $200 per quad. I use my own vehicle- F350 dually and a steel trailer.
Let me know (727)204-0883 Chino
Try this site
http://www.uship.com/ ;D
The problem with Uship, you have a bunch of people bidding on the same jobs. Everytime you think you have a job, someone bids lower than you until you'll end up doing it dirt cheap. I'm not working for beer money!!

I know all about the competition for work with the illegals. My whole family is in some sort of construction and has to compete with this all the time.
There will alway's be somebody cheaper.
Some illegals in the construction field are leaving FL. to othere area's where there is more work since it has slowed down here a little, thats why we had so many here, because there was a lot of work.
They tend to go to the States that are booming.
I am going to be in Washington St. tomorrow, then to N. Carolina, then home. I was traveling across the Nevada desert and my serpentine belt ripped, and my waterpump went out. It cost me $450. bucks. Oh well, life on the road!!

I stopped painting big trucks when the pay went from $1200 for a concrete truck to $400 overnight back in the early 90's when everyone stopped caring about a SSN. I really liked breathing Imron, now I have to dodge lightning high in the sky fixing satellite equipment. Fortunately the manuals for my job use big words they can't understand.
And they wonder why we have so many troubled people in the world. I have friends who have paid thousands for College, have degree's, and their job market is overrun and they can't find jobs. You waste years on a special so called trade, and the next day, it's not worth anything.
I'm glad I'm versatile, and can learn fast. I'll always have job cababilities that way.
I'm sure when they finally get that amnesty bill passed things will change...
Preparing to go back out. Anybody need anything going out, let me know.
