    "Power only" just means that the carrier supplies the trailers and all costs to maintain/repair them. You still need bobtail/liability and cargo insurance.

    Are you asking about leasing to a carrier or doing your own authority with no trailer

    If your doing your own then go see your insurance agent and talk to them about your needs for a policy and you'll need transporter plates. Good luck

    There you go. It's mostly a joke off loadboards until you make some connections or find someone who doesn't have the luxury of time to shop that.
