Love these videos. As a longtime "wannbe", I was wondering if it would be possible to video the pickup-loading and/or delivery-unloading process. Either way keep the videos coming.

This company had an add on Craigslist for someone to deliver empty caskets from the local airport to funeral homes in the area. It was part time and seems perfect for my situation. I was trying to do some research to see if they were on the up and up. Craigslist adds make me kind of nervous. By...

Mine is to finally get in this business. Tired of dreaming, time to start doing.

Anyone have CV/Sprinter numbers?

This is true. I also know it will be different with CV, Sprinter, and ST. I just think it would be nice to see some real numbers if anyone is willing to give them.

I agree with Phil. As a prospective expediter, and reading this site, no one ever says anything about their net, only the gross, and the gross is hard to get from people. It doesn't matter what your gross is if there is nothing left after the expenses are paid. I know it's "taboo" to talk money...

No need to worry about competition, I'm just a "wanna be". Not the right time for me to get in this yet.

Thats funny. I actually only live about 3 miles from there.

I'm sorry if I missed this in your past post, but what vehicle did you take your test with?

Jefferson, Thanks for the advise. Like I said, it will be a while before I do this, if I do this. I've been lurking and reading EO for about 2 years. LOTS of info. This post just seemed to peak my interest. I've always wanted to be my own boss and do my own thing. But from reading over the...

Thanks for all your replies. I know the best thing to do would be run for someone untill I learn the ropes. I just think I would like the independence of having my own authority and making my own decisions on were I go and what I haul. Again, I'm just in the research stage. It will be a few...

Just wondering, what do you guys with your own authority drive, straight truck, box van, cargo van, sprinter, etc. Still in the "wannabe" stage. Would really like to run with my own authority, if and when I finally decide to do this.

Thank you for the info. I'm just a "wannabe" from the Dayton area. Not driving yet, just researching.

Does anyone know anything about B-Line Delivery? They are fairly new. They have offices in Dayton and Cincinnati. Has anyone worked for them? Thanks!

Excellent post! That is why I'm waiting to pursue this career. I have school age children and do not want to miss out on their lives. Sports events and other after school activities, and just being involved in there everyday lives. I just can't miss that.

Thanks to everyone for your insights. I learned alot about this business in this post. I too, like most of you, just like to drive. And with the right truck setup, it can be pretty much like home, with a good sleeper and all the accessories. I'm still going to wait for a few years, but this is...

I have been reading and asking questions on this site for about 4 months now. I was wanting to get into expediting, but from the answeres and advise I have received, I think you have talked me out of this, at least for now. I at least want to wait until my kids are out of school. But alot of you...

I posted this on the Newbie forum but didn't get a responce, so I thought I would try it here. I've been thinking about getting into the business. I have a job now that I've been at for over 22 yrs., I hate to just leave it without knowing if this is right for me. Would it be a good idea to get...
