Think that's what you have to figure out for yourself honestly. What route/routes are you wanting to run, what type of truck as far as fuel cost, trailer and how many you can haul at once, are you paying for someone to ride with you and help?? I mean all these are figures you have to come up with on your own and how much you would need to make it worth it. I mean guys charge anywhere from 75-200 each with discounts on multiple head but that's their price point as each of them are different need your own. Not a whole lot of help but seriously though you've got a lot of figures to factor in before you start saying I need to charge X amount.
