Landstar leasing hotshot?

Well I spoke with them today & 62% goes to the truck & 8% goes to your trailer. My insurance went up & I can't swing it now. I don't want to get up my MC right now but I will do what I have to for right now. So I will keep you guys posted on how I like it

 

Good luck Firstdeville. Hope you can manage to stay independent.

 

Thanks FLatbed, I have a good broker & He keeps me local & I have another Steel Company that deals with me Direct. I will jump on landstar for a couple of months & I hooe I can get back what I built up when I reactive my MC

 

devil,please come back and let us know about this venture please, ive hauled for l.s in past independant , like to know any forced dispatch nowdays to keep plates/ins active? use there trailer or ours?

 

NP, but so far I no you can keep your trailer if it's over 25ft & they install the EOBR for free & don't no if they charge for having it. Class is 2 days & they pay for the hotel in Dallas,tx

 

Good luck on this new venture!!

 

Thanks LB was trying to help someone out putting them on my insurance & letting them use my MC number to get started until they get theres,but they never did & could not pay when they jacked the rate up & I could not swing the different. Man very hard lesson I had to learn

 

Can I put my 3/4 ton Chevy 2500HD pickup to work as hot shot owner op ? I'm an independent OTR truck driver looking to put my truck to work hot shotting loads potentially with my own authority.

If so, what are the costs for obtaining my authority to hotshot with 3/4 Ton pickup? What's the best process that you would advise considering as of now I just have a truck with a 16k fifth wheel in bed.

Appreciate the knowledge sir.
Chris

 

What if you have the hot shot truck and you don’t want to drive it and you rent it to a companie and let them find a driver and pay you for the truck services

 

Finally seen a hotshot with the Landstar numbers and logo. He didn’t have a radio so I could not talk to him. He had nice looking equipment.
