    at Landstar you are truly on your own, you just have to pay them like 35% of the revenue and you are good to go :biggrin_25513:

    The percentage they take is too high, but their load system is the way I like to truck. The worst thing is the agents giving the best freight to those they like or to their own trucks, but I can understand that to a point.

    If I had enough recent driving time to suit them, I would buy a truck and sign up tomorrow, if they paid 85% with my trailer.

    The words of the unknowing never cease to amaze me! Do you want 90% of what some company/broker offers? Or do you want 65% of the best paying freight in the USA?

    6 months and you quit? To learn the system and the agents will take longer than that. The high paying loads are there, knowing who to call takes time.

    I have only been here 3 years. I still don't know all the agents that have the big $$$ freight. It takes time to learn who to call and many who quit won't/don't understand. The freight that "pays" very seldom is posted. Example: 2 loads, 14,000 lbs,1599 miles,$ 21,690 these loads were never posted. The Agent called a BCO who called a BCO who knew a BCO...... and the loads were covered.
