Does it make sense for someone living in the Memphis area to deviate? It drives me crazy to have deadheads each month on 5 different carriers (VTO line).

On the other hand it seems like it's taking on more risk than its really worth.
Opinions?
In the bad weather months (snow/ice - thunderstorms) I wouldn't deviate on the front end. I'd definitely deviate on the backend if you could get home quicker.
