    How much is it to start your own trucking company general freight. With insurance and all the filing you have to do with the gov. 48 states.

    $50,000 +/-. Go get an insurance quote and you will see what I mean

    Getting Authority is cheap.

    It's the insurance that'll kill you.

    Depends on a bunch of factors. Where you live, your driving record, what your hauling, your truck and trailer, etc

    I was thinking about going independent not too long ago, but they hit me with an insurance quote for $30K a year. That’s with a perfect credit score and a squeaky clean mvr. Ridiculous. Insurance going worse and worse every year
