    May have to wait a few more weeks for you your DOT and MC your are just starting off so unless you have a few connections with shippers you've got to start at the bottom which may mean competing with other O/O off load boards at low rates the key is try doing the same freight for the same shipper let them see your reliable then get rid of the middle man (broker) and keep more profits for yourself. Heres a few load boards if you want to try there are 100's out there: Trulos, Loadhound, vessage.com Delivery Broker, rightnowloads A1freightmatching, 123loadboard, truckersedge.net

    Thank you for this information. I appreciate it. Do you know of a site that has all the details of what I will need to be legal and do most guys running hot shot rigs have a certain trailer that makes them the most versatile for differant loads. Thanks again

    Not sure where your out of, but I do see a lot of campers being towed by hotshots, don't know anything about it, but this way your wouldn't have to buy a trailer. Just a thought for something for you to look at.
