    That is very generic still ...it is best in my opinion to find a niche and a lane chasing dry freight in all 48 with company drivers to manage does not sound like a plan

    What is important to you when looking at a new company to work for?

    How much money the company is going to try to scam you out of. I book my own loads so I run and work where I choose. I give 10% to my co. mag ..any more than that it gets “shadey”

    And what other fees are taken out of your settlement besides the 10%?

    Your basic fees just as you would incur having your own authority. Insurance is only 138wk so thats way less. total fees around 200$ a week.

    Pretty good deal, you'd be hard pressed to beat that. Do you find that you like the flat fees weekly versus paying an extra 5% with no fees? at a $200k gross year, that 5% roughly equals the weekly $200 you're paying. What do they charge for dry van trailers?
