Schneider Lease-Purchase..

Yeah it's that easy..show us how's it's done rookie.
Yeah I said rookie..that's what you are even with all your experience.
You have no idea what goes on day to day with the big orange.
Its simple at times and frustrating others.
And depending on where u live..that opens up a whole lot more of easiness.
So let's see how you do..

 

I think it really depends on what you want out of this program. I don't have many bills, no kids at home , and I have a very supportive girlfriend. I only need to pay myself $600-$650 a week. I live in MD within 40-50 miles of a bunch of warehouses Schneider pulls out of. I also have a group of friends that are already successful in this program to give me advice. If one of these conditions weren't in place I'd never try this. I know guys that are making $75,000+ as company drivers that have showed interest in being an IC, I just laughed at them.

 

This is your first Post... How did you hear about TTR?

 

I've been stalking here for months, agonizing over weather or not to try it.

 

How much you have saved for startup?

 

To be honest I only have about $3000 left after I put $3k down on my Cascadia. I decided to go new. We also just paid off $7,000 in credit card debt between the two of us (mostly hers) so I have that to fall back on if I feel the need to dig a hole again.

 

Wait til you get a string lined up to only realize those same loads are already assigned to another driver.

The process is EASY, the reality sometimes sucks.

The ease of use is why I haven't left followed by my familiarity of SNI.

Let us know how you're doing on the board.

It's not impossible le but it's no where near as easy as you've made it out to be.

 

I've been told there will be weeks I can't even pay myself and I'll wonder why I ever decided to do this. I've also heard horror stories about chasing empties and loads canceling. The biggest thing that sticks in my head is "once you do this you'll never want to be dispatched again, it's easier to deal with when its your decision to take the load".

 

Keep us posted.

 

I'll keep you posted as soon as I sign the agreement
