Flatbed owner operator gross

$45k on 12,600 miles so far this year.
I don’t work every week.

 

Leased to LS. 80% are oversize, not by much usually. LS load board/ agent contacts.

That’s 1099 figures to me.

 

I’ll add that 40% of my miles are deadhead, because I rarely find a connecting load that pays the truck it’s time - often more productive to bounce empty, often home.

 

I’ve made $74,074 Jan 1st to March 31st. I worked 9 out of the 13 weeks total in the 3 months. Avg week $8,230. It’s more than this, I would say $9k if you went a strict week Monday to Sunday. Times at home and times working doesn’t mean an exact 7 days.

My company has 5 trucks, I am the only flatbed, other 4 are dry vans. All of my loads are from DAT. Typical week is Texas, go north, then back down to Texas.

 

For comparison I avg a grand more at least compared to when I hauled dry van.
