years as local driver in Chicago and Tampa, Fl. If your starting business, what commodities to haul, working with Brokers and more. Experience16 years in the Trucking Industry. Be smart. First, look at used trucks. If its load they badly need covered, usually try to take it. I told him that had truck in California every week and would like to be his carrier on backhauls. I always tell people to write up business plan. That should be the first thing you do. Broker loads are fine and pay the bills, but want the shippers to call me.
Larger fleets will have taken care of their trucks and are usually in good shape. I dont want to pay broker the cut. Be smart. First, look at used trucks. Any ideas would be great. Shop around for everything you can. Every penny counts and if you can save few dollars by shopping for insurance, parts, whatever, it will add up. So you have your truck and are legal and ready to haul loads. also can help new drivers pick company thats best fits them, what to look for in company and what to expect if your new to truck driving.
Anyone can buy truck and hire driver. Others, you have to keep selling to. I told him that had truck in California every week and would like to be his carrier on backhauls. Calling on potential customers in your area will pan out. I hate it! Thats where want my name out there. also can help new drivers pick company thats best fits them, what to look for in company and what to expect if your new to truck driving. You want to be successful? This is how its done. I tell story about customer of mine.
I know there is alot of risk but have the dream and determination to succeed! I just need little help. Broker loads are fine and pay the bills, but want the shippers to call me. You want to be successful? This is how its done. I tell story about customer of mine. Sitting on your hands and saying Im open for business is sure way to fail. Engine rebuilds are expensive and can put world of hurt on your business fast!
