Livestock or flatbed

Ok, so...let's just nip this in the bud. If your a fagina, livestock is not for you. Flatbed is easy for the most part. However, you are gonna get a rash of guys that are going to try and tell you it's too much work....
It's not.....at all.
Because they are faginas..

 

There's a thread in here somewhere about the life of a livestock haulers.

Basically unless you enjoy long and odd hours, being peed on, pooped on, if getting poop in your mouth, kicked, and a list of other things livestock may not be for you.

 

If you've never ran flatbed before, one of the megas like tmc is a good place to start. They will teach you the basics and it will give you time to learn and grow. Plus, now isn't the time to be buying a truck and or trailer. Learn and grow on their dime. Then when the market is better, take that and make a business out of it.

 

If you don't have customers lined up or a plan to pick any up than get a flatbed. You can find work for it easier on loadboards and you'll have the opportunity to seek out customers later if you choose to go that route in the future.

 

Just look at Prime. Drive if you want, lease or purchase if you want, flatbed, tank or reefer, you can even get your own authority and pull Prime trailers with Prime freight and use Prime fuel cards etc.

 

Ain't that the truth!

 

No, don’t check with them.
