    I'm still considering Owner Op myself however during my research a lot of the companies I'm looking at mainly located in Ayr, On through to London, On. Pay ranges from $1.27/mile to $1.90/mile. JBT Transport had a job ad out saying they pay upto $1.90/mile however it mentions U.s.a states driving on the East coast. Brain Kurtz owner ops pay $1.27/mile plus fuel surgecharges with border crossing as well. Icon Transportation Logistics Ltd. has an ad out on Indeed however doesn't mentioned their mileage payment for o/o only to mentioned a sign on bonus of $2500. AZ TEAM, Cross-Border Owner Operators - Ayr, ON - Indeed.com Again, most State driving but not mentioning pay. I find that the majorities of today's ads barley mention mileage payment because they are trying not to deter drivers and owner operators however it's deceptive on their part with those types of ads.

    Finding Owner Operator jobs that only remain in Ontario are a niche type of search and feel that it's mainly within the companies that has inside connections for those job positions.

    scotlynn is looking for owner ops mostly to run loblaws loads out of cambridge. they advertise you can lease to own international daycabs and kw bunk trucks but i wouldn’t recommend leasing from them. if u buy your own truck then lease onto them then maybe it’s better . young system is another company who hauls for loblaws
