Why do trucking companies financially discourage their drivers from lumping freight.? Ive been doing this job on and off since the early 90's, and it always bothered me that companies will pay drivers so much less than they will pay lumpers. I have my theories to explain this, but I have no way to prove or disprove them. I am looking for someone who has inside information, who may have worked within the infrastructure of a company and who has dealt with such decisions and the reasons for them. Please support your assertion as best you can. Thanx.

Moving using a freight company? We are planning a move from Tennessee to California. We arent moving any furnishings; just boxes (clothes, toys, etc). My mother suggested using a freight company, but I can't seem to find companies online that work with individuals...just businesses. We aren't in an area that is serviced by PODS or anything similar. Already checked. Can anyone recommend or direct me to a company that does freight for private parties, that may have a rate chart or quote field online?
Commerical furniture delivery - How do you send coffee tables by freight? I am in the process of setting up a small furniture making business and I need to know how do you go about sending coffee tables etc that are not flat- packed. I would imagine that you would bubble-wrap the items and then get a freight company like Fedex to pick them up. Is it that easy? Should I consider putting these type of items in crates. The coffee tables I have made would be sent out lndividually to customers. They are not overly expensive and really not that large. But would Fedex etc accept this type of furniture without being crated. If it is OK to send just by bubble-wrapping, what is the best way to do this to ensure the items does not get damaged? I would also be sending out the coffee tables etc to international customers.
