Contact me, we dispatch Sprinters and box trucks. Your best bet is to buy 14 ft box truck under 10,000 lbs. My small box trucks make the same money as 26 ft trucks.

Text me +(404) 509-3766, we have plenty of loads for 15 ft box trucks and 26 footers.

I have my own company; we get loads from the marketplace.

Net means money in their (drivers) pocket after all expenses.

Drivers make $1,000-$2,200 per week net. Drivers end up making Over $2K if we take partials on Friday for Monday long distance delivery.

We have $1MM commercial liability from Progressive and $100K cargo insurance; the rates are low because the business is located in the low cost insurance state; plus I don’t buy comprehensive coverage for older units. Vehicles are paid off so I take the risk.

Drivers pay for fuel on their own; sometimes I give them $50-$100 for fuel if relocation is required. Example no loads in Odessa or Orlando so I give them gas money to relocate to better areas.

Hello, I just finished my calculations for 2019 year. These results are for 7 units; 5 sprinters and 2 Small Straights. I split % of revenue with drivers, but they pay for gas. I am responsible for vehicle repairs, tolls and insurance. All equipment is paid off. I don't know the exact mileage...

If you are so successful and your rates are great why you are still living in the box?

We do 4,000+ on average, but want to push harder as we still have more capacity. Can do 5,000- 6,000 miles per week. Drivers are bored with 4K miles.

Hello, Can someone recommend good broker/brokers that are not exclusive? I have Large ST operations with team drivers and have extra capacity. Looking for trip lease options only. Thanks.

Hi, what is the best fuel cards for small fleet owner? What is the average discount on Diesel?

I picked up new 2020 FL M2 chassis today for $67K, found good used 26 ft box with liftgate for $4,500 and will build 4ft sleeper inside the box. I don’t know how people can make money in expediting running equipment that cost $200K new. Maybe I won’t get the highest rates but if I can average...

Had great year almost $1M in revenue on 6 units; 30% net profit margin.

I won’t be driving; I have a team-they don’t require much comfort, just asked for a 4 ft sleeper with decent mattress, nothing else. They want to drive lots of miles. We expect 4500-5,000 miles per week on average.
