Any companies that will lease on drivers with no experience??

Shhhh… you will get the members who think there are no failures in this business to call you names.

 

Even if you have your own equipment, you’re still a newbie with zero experience.

It’s doubtful any one will lease you on at the moment, since you’ll be running under their insurance, and more likely than not, their insurance isn’t going to accept you until you have some verifiable experience.

That being said, work for a company for a year, get some experience under your belt, then revisit that idea again.

 

To be transparent of the conversation, image, and revenue and location on my end.

Bruce Oakley wants a certain look in front of his trailers, eg he wants Hoods pulling his heavy trailers. My 2020 Cascadia doesn't match his wanted look.

Revenue on my end, I'm east coast NC and there is no freight, hence no revenue. If I lived in Little Rock AR, maybe a different conversation.

Honest conversation about what each of us needed to achieve as a business. I appreciate the 10 minutes the office gave me of their time. Cant fault them or that.

 

Maybe he has a beard. They don't hire people with facial hair unless it's just a small mustache.

 

I’ve thought about them before but like you it wouldn’t be a good fit where I live. And I don’t really want to run the way they want guys to run.

I misunderstood what you said about the truck being too heavy and stuff.

 

LOL I wish that was the problem....Only hair growing out this head is ear and nose hair, and I'm 50.

Take the razor to all of it, or nair....gotta keep the other half happy.

He likes me a little stubby.

 

It was explained to me that they just have certain lanes, and I didn't fit. They would let me try, but I'd be home every 2 months.

I don't wanna hijack this thread, but this is also important info for OP

Even tho you own your own truck, and authority.... how often you getting back to your mailbox so your can send in them quarterly estimates?

 

There are tons of companies looking for owners.

They're advertised on the back of trailers. Craigslist, indeed. Etc.

But not many will have information on them. Most work for the very few well known.

No experience will be a problem. Even the experienced has problems if they've been local only the last few years.

Look for local work. Or at least. Local companies that do long haul.

 

Go to a load board, power only for low rates, and start there after getting your own authority. TQL is garbage but they'll let anyone pull for them. After six months to a year with no issues, you'll be gold.

 

seriously ??? what is your plan ? bankruptcy ??? Unbelievable!!!!
do you guys educate yourself before signing into the scam contracts ??? do you ????
