    I recently posted in the wrong section I believe I am an owner operator that has been in business a little over a year ( I do not have power )the company that I’m leased on with has started getting a little shady with the payments I was making $1.65 a mile plus fuel surcharge under their authority and doing pretty well I have been looking around at other companies in the to pay about the same $1.05 a mile a lot of them see percentage anywhere from 72% to 95% but if it’s cheap freight it still comes out to like a dollar a mile I’ve done backhauls from one company in particular in the whole percentage thing never paid out So like everyone else I guess I’m looking for suggestions of companies that pay decent thanks

    Hauling what kind of freight? Makes a difference in what would be considered good pay. Also, you may have had a bad experience with percentage, but I'd be willing to bet most o/o would only run on percentage, as long as they had access to the information to ensure the company isnt cheating them.
     
    Mike Mci and Vitkouski Thank this.

    *note* about that previous post, I said access to the information. I personally have never asked for it because I wouldn't work anywhere I felt was cheating me to begin with, but i want to know i have access to that information if i do want it.
     
    Mike Mci Thanks this.

    Well, I've not run dry van, but for what it's worth, I hear Schneider National is really good to lease on to. Good luck to you finding a home though

    Maybe say where you live, how often you want to go home, and where you are used to running and it’ll help people help you.
