#Cost of a d7 dozer drivers#
If you have a shortage of drivers in a city, then the price goes up because the driver will have their pick of the lot. When you have a surplus in one city, then the price goes down. Driver’s are constantly moving all over the country. If you are 200+ miles away from a major city, be prepared to pay a little more than the usual rate.Ĭapacity is the final constraint to consider/understand. This rule also applies to deliveries in remote areas. We would essentially have to pay them to drive out and get the shipment (deadhead). This can cause the rate to come up because drivers tend to be situated around bigger cities where loads are most likely to appear. We get a lot of shipments that pick up in Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, and other states that do not have a very dense population. Location is another factor that impacts the price. It is important to remember, whether you are going a long ways or running 50 miles down the road, you will still be paying for the drivers time. Coast-to-coast shipments are cheaper per mile than local runs.

There are a few constraints to consider.ĭistance is a very important factor in price. The standard $2.00 to $2.25 a mile doesn’t apply to all shipments.
#Cost of a d7 dozer full#
Still not bad when compared to the full line haul rate of $2000-$2250. That means our total cost to ship the Caterpillar D4 Crawler Tractor would come out to be $2850-$3300. To obtain necessary permits, the cost will increase $500-$1000 based on lead time. Unfortunately, since they are more specialized, you should expect to pay 10-20% more than the average flatbed rate for that lane. Stepdecks are a little more specialized, so we would have to assume it would be more than a flatbed. Meaning we are going to pay the full line-haul rate. Knowing that a full sized stepdeck is 48-53ft long and has a capacity of 46,000 lbs cargo weight, we would have to run this as a dedicated load. We would essentially have to find a step-deck that is heading that way and negotiate a price to have them pick this up.

It weighs 29,258 lbs, has a length of 10 ft, has a width of 10.25 ft, and a height of 6 ft.įor the example, lets say that it is picking up in Hastings MI and is going out Rogers AR. For this example, I have picked the Caterpillar D4 Crawler Tractor. So, let’s make it simple by giving you an example shipment. Everyone’s been asking how much it costs to ship a Bulldozer per mile.
