    Depends:you find loads or him, who pays for insurance, who pays for tags and other stuff.
    You gotta do more reading, looks like you know nothing at all

    "what percentage you charge a driver o/o"

    percentage for what?

    Are you a broker?

    Carrier?

    You talking about drivers?

    Or are you talking about Owners?
     
    Socal Xpress Thanks this.

    If o/o has own trailer co. pays extra 10 to 12% more, if co. firn. all insu. but not bobtail and o/o pulls co. trailer i have seen any where from 65 to 70%, but ifta can be paid by co. in less driver is put out of serv. or other things that are in the lease then o/o must pay for IFTA for a set time, If a DOT insp. is turned in no vol. at co. I was leased on with I got 250$, InAL. we hauled big coils on 3 axle trailers down to B/ham from nucor up from I- 65 80 or so mi but after a coil went thru bridge deck and landed on on I-65 I-20 interchange below, We were getting insp. every load and insp. money was like getting extra fuel surcharge every load, then on tues they changed rule on how many 250$ insp. a o/o may get per MO. I hope that helps a little, You need to have a ATT. look over your lease before you get them signed on?

    English for 1000 Alex.

    The question does not make sense. How about re-writing it?

    What is a driver o/o? And what am i charging him for?
