Is there any carriers big or small that hires reefer Dz owner operators?

What is this fascination with owning a straight truck, why not just get a $30 hr job driving somebody else's rather than owning one for $40 hr ?

i see ads for local Az owner ops at $38-44 a hr ,how the h$ll do these guys make any money at those rates . I sold my dump truck after a year at $71 a hr and all the bs and dealing with Ahole construction guys wasnt worth it with all the expenses to me.

 

When I worked at Erb Transport back in the 70's and 80's they had a few straight truck O/O's but I have know idea if they have any now.

 

A couple of companies that come to mind right now are C.B Stealth express and Apex motor express wants DZ owner ops right now. Don’t know the ins and outs of each company you will need to do the research .Apex claims $90k-150k i would being looking at a truck with a lift gate through gives you more opportunities down the road

 

They also sit more and spend more.
