Crash Course: How To Start A Trucking Company (MC, DOT, UCR, BOC3, State Permits, IRP, IFTA, 2290) 

She a blessing

"...we’ve seen absolutely no profit." Really?!?! Cutting out the middle man is all the profit you will hope for then? How will you expand your business if you are not making any profits?? If you had to do it all over again, would you?

This is definitely an industry you don't want to dive in with no experience. I've seen some folks who started a trucking company with no experience and are successful, but, they had mentors and connections with shippers to move freight for. Cold call / meet manufacturers/ shippers and offer your services. Do that consistently and dont give up.

Sorry you had to go through such trouble with your Trucking Business, but here is a video that will guide you through the industry and will teach you anything you need ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JRrftgt_3t4.html

@@miguelnoriega7185Great Advice

Wow thank you so much!

How’s it gone for the first year. My dad has been trucking otr for 15-20 years and has expressed to me about opening a business. He’s a little order so he came up with the plan that I start the llc and he’ll be our one driver starting out. It didn’t seem that bad but now that I’ve looked into the info it’s overwhelming. He has his own truck paid off. And we have like 50+ saved up. That’s the only thing we got going for ourselves right now. lol We are in dfw and it seems to always be loaded with truckers on the highway. I just think if we stay local or central Texas would it be actual profit? I work full time but I could slow down and be dispatch or my wife. She’s is full time but is down to be our full time dispatcher. Any free advice. Hahaha.

I thought Amazon requires six months after you received your authority

@@mohammedsiraj2496 They are all over the place and depends on the market and equipment type. I have seen box trucks get approved out of some markets in a week and in other markets, they never respond. On the the semi side, almost seems easier to work with a larger carrier that is moving 10-20 loads a day than trying to break the code. Personally, Amason should not be the only thing in your business plan. You need to be able to run freight away from them in a moment's notice, or if you never get approved.

It’s already out- carrier course on my website ☺️

We just got our truck this week. I'm still working on getting 2290,IFTA, and all that.I have a hard time getting those 3 proof of address for our business.Hopefully they will take what I have.

I will work on that! :)

Graças a Deus pelo google tradutor! Bem, acho que preciso começar a aprender português!

Thank you for your support!

Can you rent a dry van and still get insurance to get your own authority??

What’s you get all your permits how do we reach out or find brokers to help get work ? Thank you!

Did what? Authority services? I no longer provide them because I made a course on it

Thank you. Personally I haven't heard of being successful without a truck or CDL, but I think what they mean is leasing on owner operators. Delegating the work in this market will always yield bad results sadly. I recommend to those who start a trucking company to also dispatch themselves and drive for their own authority.

I am hoping to do it before the end of this year but this flu has really pushed me back. Will keep you updated on this channel!

Thank you, I hope you get well soon.

I am in SoCal :) Not the best state for business, especially trucking

@@TruckingMadeSuccessful why isn’t it the best state for a trucking company ??

@@kevindelgado1335 Too many regulations and taxes

Yes, but that is specialized so I didnt include it here

You need interchange insurances
