Need advice on a trucking company, pays $2.20-40 on Van loads

If you will be making over 2/mile on all miles with a dry an right now and got talent 2500 miles a week, I say go for it!

 

This:


Becomes this:


Once you factor in tolls, deadhead, and their percentage...

That's ~$3300 a week before fuel (~$800) and maintenance/truck replacement ($800) plus at 90% I bet you're paying for cargo/liability insurance (~$150 not including bobtail).

So figure $1550 pretax income for a guy who knows the system...

 

there ya go, if someone wants to know their mc# and steal this from you, it must be a good opportunity up in that area for you.

 

LOL More like I want to cross reference to Chicago White Volvo Gang...

 

Chicago White Volvo Gang...?????????

 

Eastern European trucking companys that speak Russian,Romanian,that recruit as many foreign drivers as they can ,

 

Those are accurate numbers for short hops. Start running longer and the rates will go down, my guys make the same rates as that running Mid-West without any tolls or congestion issues. Max revenue for most weeks would be around $4500.00 for 2000 miles a week, most weeks lately they are averaging $3500.00 - $4000.00 for 1600 - 1800 miles. That is because when things get slow a lot of the dock workers also slow down on loading as well, or we have more loads cancel because a cheaper truck comes along.

 

At 90% the O/O should be paying for everything, otherwise they should just go and get their own authority.
