Do you have any experience of local drivers - with rates if possible?

Thank you
$200 for a rental just might be the least expensive way. Look at it this way, if you were to be in that business. Gas, round trip at close to $100. TIA is right close to 100 miles from TV. Labor , the trip will be 4 hrs. round trip. How much do you charge for labor? Wear & tear on vehicle? I can tell you that if it was me, I could not survive the business at $200.
