Actually, to the best of my knowledge (which in this area is pretty accurate) the current broker contract is an 88/12 split. Landstar takes 12% off the top and the agent is left with 88% to split between him and the carrier to negotiate the rate with. Whatever they can get is what they get. BCO's remain the same.

What some people miss here is that a broker or an agent is doing the leg work that many O/O's or LO's can't or won't do.....HeWhoMustNotBeNamed Thanks this. -

Today we have many dope smoking,lazy,useless alcoholics that were ex-kirby vacum salesman.These nit wits live off 7% and CH Load Boards.You can catch alot of these agents in there dining room at the trailer park with a laptop,an ashtray,a bottle of wild turkey and gay porn in the back ground.Forever taking loads from the CH Boards and putting this useless cheap stuff on the L/S boards..And they call themselves an ''AGENT''...
Not to mention they call these CH Loads ''My Customer''...Disgusting what L/S Hires anymore as ''agents''...It is a long walk and many years finding agents with ''loyalty'' -
He's been keeping me busy and the rates I get are a lot better than what average Outbound for FB from Denver is.... -
Is there anything to prevent a BCO from securing their own customers? In that case does the BCO then get the agent fee as well?

Not at the same time.
How you get around that is the truck in his name.
The agency in hers.
