If I am going to be signing with a company as an o/o do I still need an EIN, DOT# and Forming an LLC? I will be owning my equipment but they find the loads.

You will need an EIN to file and pay the HVUT ($550). No DOT number needed if running under other company's authority. As far as the LLC that you should be discussing with a CPA and let him show you the best way to set up your business.
rachi and 13'trucker Thank this. -
U should think twice about becoming a o o
-
You should elaborate on why. Instead of just saying you should think twice.
Everyone always says it’s a bad time to become a o o so when is it a good time?lsnook24 and 13'trucker Thank this. -
Not now,, u not trying to b a smart ##* but if you are asking questions like this u have not done your homework or have enough experience, #1 how much is the company paying what r u hauling, ins, your own or theirs,escrow, get theirs and have your own, can u make better money else where, I make 90% use their numbers, their ins plus mine, for PC or when I'm not dispatched, what's the fuel surcharge, maintenance, taxes, 2290, hut, r u filing quarterly, u should u have enough money to maintain yourself, plus economically speaking rates have dropped, the country is hurting what else

Take it from somebody who just started 5 months ago. Now is not a good time. It is hard to make money right noe. Wait until this virus stuff blows over. The economy is about to collapse if this stuff lasts much longer and alot of ppl is gonna be out of business. Save yourself the misery and wait it outclausland Thanks this.

Right now cash is king . So if you have cash keep it until the world knows where it’s going..

You should think thrice before becoming an o/o. You should think Quattro ... you should think cinco ... Has very little to do with timing it has to do with most truck drivers are just that , truck drivers not business people thus they fail. Then they say the company ripped them off.
