Becoming an owner operator...

Just so you know you can make as much pulling your hopper as a flat.

 

I don't run my hoppers commercialy. Farm use only. And no. On an average day you'll get 3 maybe 4 or 5 loads to ethanol plant daily. Not uncommon to see 40 trucks deep at the plants

 

Can you get in and out?? Absolutely. Very inconsistent though. And I'm not going to trash out my clean Wilsons...never been in salt and I plan to keep it that way. Original post said flatbed, that's what I wanted help with...don't want to help then move on to the next thread, thanks though

 

Doesn't want help so I deleted it.

 

Sorry just trying to help you out. Good luck to you!!

 

Flatbed has always been a dream of mine, and I now have the chance to pursue it, so I will. I have no girlfriend, wife, or kids. Money is not really an issue. Seems like a perfect combination. Just a little green when it comes to starting up the business. Thanks! Drive safe...

 

Look over in the flatbed section. Good group of guys over there. Good luck to you!!!

 

Can't rememeber his name but he used to comment on here frequently look up small flatbed carriers in Iowa and start bugging that's what I do when I think I wanna change what part of Iowa are you in and will you need a trailer or do you already have one

 

Also bti would probably work if you lived here in Kansas I could recommend atleast three places that wouldn't have a problem with you taking time off to take care of your farm
