    So your saying out of
    4k gross they only chArge 400

    Who buys the

    Plates
    Permits
    IFTA
    Insurances
    Trailer

    If you are running your own authority leased on to a broker I can see the 10% with you paying most or all tge above with your trailer

    Gotta tell us more before you get answers . Your statement was a little vage

    i buy the trailer and either u lease it or buy it from me about 400-500 dollar month
    if u got ur own trailer then just cargo insurance
    you pay the cargo insurance 510 month
    IFTA is about 300 to 400 every 3 months thats not a big deal
    you use my authority and i give loads
    and yes if its 4k then 400

    Cargo insurance of 510 a month ? WAY too much. Maybe all insurance, but cargo only at 6 grand a year, no way.

    Your cargo is a little steep !!!
    You will also find most ( not all) like a fuel
    Card it's pretty rough to float your own fuel especially when they don't know your pay patterns

    1. How often you pay ( net 7, net 15, net 30)
    It makes difference

    2. Logs

    There still some questions that linger

    cargo ins too high???? its 100,000dollar cargo so if u know cheaper let me know hahaha ill be happy to get it

    i hold 1st week so 2nd week ull get 1st week and so own
    if youll need to get payd on the spot each load or without holding a week then i charge 15% of the weekly gross.
    and same with fuel, ill take fuel off after he deliver or by the end of the week.
    and logs? what about them? can u make it legal?then thats all i need.

    If you buy fuel right, you wont owe anywhere close to that $300-$400 per quarter. I often get a refund, or maybe owe a few bucks, but I buy most of my fuel in the high dollar states.
