What would you guys think is a fair percentage to pay an o/o to run under your authority? I hear 80% to be pretty common, but I would like to give him an option to either book his own freight or we keep him booked, that would probably warrant a deviation in percentage pay if he decides to handle it all on his own, thanks in advance for your input!

I really don’t think weather or not they dispatch or not should make much of a difference. Insurance there trailer or yours. Too me those are the bigger differences! Are we talking open deck van or reefer that also makes a difference. Are you buying plates or are they?? Also should matter. Anywhere from 77% to 80 should be the ballpark pulling your trailer and should go up the more the o/o has to provide on his own
Proxy Thanks this. -
85% of $100 = $85
70% of $150 = $105
65% of $200 = $130Midwest Trucker Thanks this. -
Look up what Landstar does. I would follow that model. Most companies don’t charge enough IMO.

I'm just wondering when I hear all the negative talk and "you'll never make it sentiments". So, your guys make their money on the load boards then, right? Do you have direct contracts too?
