Freight Broker or Agent Income Survey

I doubt there will be any legitimate responses to this.

 

I'd love to become a broker. I'm tired of working for my money and I can't run for congress. Where and when can I start.

 

And established broker will target getting 15% margin but will settle into the 10-13% range. I personally don't see that it is worth the risk and headaches as a stand alone business. For us, it is tied making sure that we can get more quality freight for our drivers and grow our business.

 

I plead the 5th.

 

It depends on what you want to do. Anything I say is wrong. My Tractor is too long, I don't have the right securement, my tires are to tall. to low/ to wide. Heart didn't mind when We pulled their trailer into the LA coliseum. I am out and about to feed my family. Costs a lot to do that. We get the scraps. Company drivers are learning. O/O's won't exist in a few more years.

 

I get 10 to 14% of the line haul!
