Questions on towing for others?

[Mschevey]

A person I work with asked me if I would be willing to run a load from my home around Pittsburgh, PA to central Minesota, aprox 900 miles. He may be selling a piece of antique equipment to someone there. To date I have only used my truck for personal towing. Therefor the questions: What is the procedure to make the arangements? What is the going rate for this kind of towing? Any recomendations or other information will be greatly appriciated.



Trailer is 5th wheel flatbed 24' rated 14,000#

I figure the GVW for the outbound trip will be 15,000# (truck trailer and load), and return will be 11,000# (truck and trailer)



Anyone have an idea on tolls for this weight.



Mike
