New to the site,
Currently transitioning out of the military and ready to get started working civilian logistics/transportation as that’s what I’ve done and know from the military. I’ve done the skill waiver and knowledge exam but wondering if I should join with a company and get experience with the industry and branch out independently after a certain amount of time or is it possible to start off independent doing freight/load boards with SBA and my military experience as a motor vehicle operator? I’m aware it’s a tough business to venture into.
Any suggestions or advice would help greatly. Thank you in advance.

 

I’m backwards planning at the moment but want to get into DOD/government loads. Know the vehicles and equipment, just getting started though so it’s looking like working for a carrier or pulling the trigger on being independent.
