Hi I work with a guy who sells straw and he wants me to haul it for him with my semi tractor to a guy buying it. There will be 2 van trailers that we swap. Meaning one will be loaded all i do is hook up and drive. I then drop the trailer at the buyers house and pickup the empty and drop it at the straw balers house to get reloaded. So all i do is drive and hook/unhook. no labor. It is 115 miles from balers place to buyers. Its about 15-20 from mine to the balers. Do I charge for this? What is a good rate? We are not close friends so Im not doing it as a favor. He needs a way to move straw and I want to help payoff my truck. Should I charge miles, bales, hours? I dont really know he wants me to come up with price so he can get everything arranged with buyer. Figure 150 miles one way to be safe dived by 5 miles per gallon equals 30 gallons fuel one way. 30 @ $3.50 equals $105 times 2 for round trip $210 for fuel 5 hours time roughly Please help I dont know whats fair for both. Thanks Matt
