Questions about Lease Operator

First get the company thing out of the way, let them provide you with the contract first, then you deal with the truck lined up. Then once you get the contract signed, go out there with their plates and their insurance in hand.

Don't bother going and getting it without the plates, it is simpler to do it with their plates. You then drive it back to them and have them put their stickers on it and get the eld in it, good to go.

No need to worry about the eld, go paper on the way back to the place.

 

All I have ever done is have it insured, get a temp tag from the dealer and drive it home.

 

There is no way a company is going to have him sign a contract and insure him without a truck and a full inspection on it. Like Oscar said just get a short term bobtail policy and temp tag, and put not for hire on the side.
