Try www.horizontransport.com. There are a number of RV transport companies out there. You can also check with the RV manufacturers, most located in Elkhart, IN area. If you are using your truck to haul, you and the truck will have to meet a number of pre-conditions. You will find all of that on their web site. They also have people that drive the motor homes and then you have to get back on your own (bus, train, plane, hitchhike).

Good Luck.

There is a book out there that I read a few years ago. It detailed what to do to deliver RV's for a living. Damned if I can remember the name of it though. You might want to do an Amazon search or something for it. Good luck

Do your research BIGRIG_787. I know for a fact that this industry is struggling right now. A friend of mine used to run to Washington state from Indiana delivering RVs each week. Not anymore though. Be sure to talk to some drivers before making a change. Good luck!

The best defense is a good offense...thank GOD I'm offensive!!!

Also keep in mind the deadhead miles are equal to the trip miles. You don’t get paid for the deadhead miles, as a rule of thumb. Although some companies may pay them. I too heard the pay per mile is low.

Try Bennett Truck Transport,1-877-391-1796. Met a couple last year that hauled for them,they had a Dodge Ram Charger with the Cummins engine,had a 5th wheel hookup and a straight hitch..I received some info from this company,expect to earn about .72 cents per loaded mile. They pay tolls when you are loaded and claim you can easily get 2000 miles per week.You pay the usual fuel,maintenace and non trucking liability. Thee guy I met said it was a loose operation,no real deadline deliveries,no driving in bad weather etc. You can come and go as you please with no pressure. Good luck
