Hi friends!
I'm here to learn. Hubby and I started a trucking company last year. We leased on to a friend of ours authority. Long story short, like many business partnerships, it didn't go well... lolz My husband is a methodical driver and detail oriented with equipment. So, not that fast yet. They also were sloppy with their money and "lost" over 20k worth of payments on loads that we had to make them find. So, we unexpectedly got our own authority much faster than expected, and are having to learn this industry quickly.
Holy cow its a lot of paperwork! You will probably see me here asking a lot of questions...
So much to learn!

Be a great time to buy 3 more trucks,,,I kid, but some folks think this is a great time to buy a truck,,,or 3. The VERY 1st red flag here, is the word "friend". It's frustrating to see people with good intentions get hosed by a "friend". Most here will agree, you don't have many "friends" in the trucking biz, at least when money is involved. Since you've already committed to this fracas, you'll just have to "try again", but people that are thinking of doing this, should really talk to people like you. Take the steam out of their sails in a hurry.
So many great company jobs today, that would cherish a driver like your husband, WITH BENEFITS,,,why in 'tarnation would you want your own?
pumpkinishere and Miss J Thank this. -
