    I just started my own LLC and I have my cdl and running my own equipment. I’m wanting to know if someone can help on the best route as far as choosing a broker or dispatching service

    To start, I would try and self dispatch, for these reasons:
    1. Mo money baby
    2. Experience gained in so many facets
    3. Being in control of your loads I.e. if you book some garbage, it’s all on you. Likewise if you book a banger. It really feels good


    If you cannot handle it, make sure you ask the potential candidate:
    1. What’s their percentage?
    2. How long have they been in business, can you get one or more of their other drivers to vouch for them?

    feel them out, you want a nice happy medium of boasting/confidence in their ability but not so much that its probably fabricated.
     
    Lite bug Thanks this.
