I mean using zero 3rd party services other than a mechanic or 2 and a bunch of brokerages?
So carrier/O/O and ALL back office work with no help at all.....not even the wife/significant other.
We need a forum or at least this thread IMO.
Who is 100% on their own here?

I use a 3rd party to do my 2290 filing and that’s it. 23 years in business and I’m preparing for my first IFTA audit.

I am. Did my own authority without any outside help as well.
It's a lot of work conpared to just driving with a company but at the end of the day I think the control over your business is worth it.Jarhed1964, Shanebklyn, Deere hunter and 7 others Thank this. -
I do it all myself. I just figured most O/O's did as well. I don't do my own mechanical work even though I wish sometimes I did. Got a PM done yesterday at Speedco and when my engine wouldn't start this morning, I had to fix a pinched gasket on the fuel separator.

I do everything except for an old school tax preparer for my taxes and my local Volvo dealer because I drive a modern truck so I have to use them for diagnostics.
I do all office work, wouldn't want it any other way. There is plenty of time at docks to keep it all done.Jarhed1964, Deere hunter, Rideandrepair and 4 others Thank this. -
I do all my paperwork.
I used to do all my repairs. I take my truck to mechanic for most of my repairs for the last couple years.
Hire a professional to do my annual tax returns.Jarhed1964, Deere hunter, Rideandrepair and 4 others Thank this.
