    Great! Congratulations

    What was the company name you were with as an owner operator? How was your experience with them?

    I don't know if it's easy money. First, you need to set up yourself as a company driver. Whoever does it the right way, needs all the paperwork set up, medical test, clearing house, consortium, preemployment application, etc. When you are audited, you need all the info or you can go down the drain. So, it might look easy if done under the table. But one helping risks losing everything when audited. It's more than what you're thinking. I can help with the paperwork but not under my authority.

    Most of us paid high insurance to begin with, especially first year. And yes, you have to be audited. But it doesn't mean the guy that takes you on, won't get audited. You never know. So, he is risking his business. It needs to be done right.

    Well, you can start your authority, ane let another person handle your paperwork. A person would need to be paid for the initial time setting it, all the documents for you. Then periodically, and then per load.
