How can I set up my own MC while being leased on to another carrier?

Jesus hold the wheel, 4K a month to LEASE to a DOT number?

 

my authority was active in 48 hours. Not sure why it would take 4-6 weeks, unless your in a state that needs more than just dot/Mc like California.

Not enough details


Could be the broker percentage dispatch fees and insurance etc

or it could be just for the number on the door

 

ain't much of a friend.

 

Ouch....

 

Well, you should have some broker, or company willing to work with you, talk to the broker you’re currently hauling with if you have too.

It may not be as long now, I remember hearing it was taking that long from a bunch trying to get numbers their authority, I’m sure there’s not so many now.

 

when i got my own numbers, i was still leased to a carrier ran their numbers till i got my ins. to activate mine. then took theirs off an ran. i went through ooida. that was in 2018
