    Hi, I need authority to run under. Someone who does not mind sending in some carrier packets to brokers every day or so for a while until the ones I need to use all have them. I get my loads from load board so use different brokers.
    Current carrier has developed some sort of problem with bulk material loads or the load board. Owes me lots of money. Claiming brokers did not pay, but payment service says otherwise.
    Wichita,ks area would be best but workable from wherever.
    10% .
    I have perfect mvr etc. 14 years driving. Nice 2017 579

    I’ve been discussing this with a couple drivers last week, just putting it on paper, I would have to charge 20% of the gross to be worth while, even with the staff I have.

    I would take on the collection so chasing money for their settlements on their loads, most likely be another 10%.

    I thought they would say no way, but both of them are considering it because they see potential.

    I thought if one wanted to be a "boss" they would have to go to Dart.

    Yeah true but the amount of money they would make, makes up for the percentage taken out.

    Going rate is 10% from Al I know who do it. I pay 10, paid 10 to a dedicated brokerage. Last job I had was 10 for the owner as she had no authority, just trucks.
    Don't really need any money chasing if you haul for decent people. I've not had any problems until the carrier went wacko and held my money and blamed broker. No broker problems.
    Only thing needs done for me really is to fill out 3 pieces of paper and email to a broker 1 time. Then of course take money. Pull out 10% and ins payments. Easy money.
