I don't understand the question? Are you saying you will lease onto a company, so the company can pick up some of the costs such as Base Plates and want to know what a good company is for that?
-
Yes white dog sorry I didn't explain well but you understood me
-
Sure it can be a good idea. Are you good with money? Do you have a business sense?
-
It's a good idea if the money is right. Just keep in mind it costs over a buck a mile to drive down the road. I wouldn't lease with these milage pay company's unless it's ltl. Be careful with FedEx ground. It sounds good but it's not all that

For instance I haul tanker/chemicals and pay is good and I get paid % percentage so I have a clear idea what the gross rate is before I take the load.
But as usual opinions will vary on this topic. You just have to figure out what works for you. Takes time.
Bear in mind that some kinds of freight pays better than others, so you need to shop around. There are so many variables and just make sure you can manage your $$ well.
Good luck. -
