Yerrr!! New York Box Trucking content is scarce. We need a how to start Box Trucking in New York City for beginners. Step by step. We would appreciate it and I’m sure that video will do number. Keep getting to that bag and drive safe bro.
I’m from Port Chester NY, came across your channel and man, It’s the second video I watch and already liked it! I got my CDL A PERMIT AND 5 endorsements, but I’ve been talking to people and watching so many reviews and comparing different kinds of work (Van 53”, Dump truck, Flatbed, Hazmat, Cargo Van expediting, and Straight truck with CDL) I want to be very independent and use load boards or get a dedicated route on a box truck 26” with Cummins Engine and Allison transmission. I drove box trucks in the past for companies in the tri-state area but under 26000 LBS! Currently work as an uber driver and private clients NY-CT-NJ Keep the good work, great channel. 👍🏼
Opportunities like this weren't really around when I was your age, most kids just worked for companies that provided the work, in this era there are so many opportunities to make money for those eager to become self-employed in the trucking industry.
Buy a pallet jack. You will need it. Take your truck empty and full fuel tank to a commercial weight station. They will give you the empty weight of truck. Take that weight and minus from 26000. The result is the weight of any load you can legally carry.
quick tip: all your straps should be up on the track and off the floor. Put a broom in the back and while you're unloading, clean up but don't sweep it off the truck, put it in a bag and use their dumpsters. always keep the straps off the floor and when you apply pressure and tie down your load, do a simple overhand knot so your straps won't let loose. Good content overall.
25000 is your total weight, meaning the weight of your truck and the load. Remember your truck weight empty is around 16000. So do the math, you can carry up to around 9000. You cannot carry 25000 pounds you will break that truck in half.
The financial game you playing right now is crazy 2k in 4 hours brooo people do 150+ hours just to get that much money! Really going crazy out here need more videos like this more true inspiration to get to it.
......a little thing......have a spare key somewhere on the outside(hidden)..of that truck or in the box.....that day will happen(lol).......i always wore cargo pants or shorts with a spare in the lower pocket with a key...........Cheers!
Great content bro really enjoy your hustle 💪🏼 Got a question = What exactly do I look for or how would I specifically do or what not to get loads paying the high each mile in order for someone to make $2k for a 4 hour pick up and drop off bro ???
Man I keep watching this to learn how you can communicate with the shipping directors . But what paper work you need to just hit the road . Like do I need any authority papers , mc or anything ? Cause I'm looking into lease, financing, and rentals.
The load board that gives $2000 to new authorities that don't even know how much they can haul after that I got a bridge im trying to sell in Brooklyn lot of traffic big bucks will come back to you.
@@jayswipes2008 If you have no damage it's better to pretend it didn't happen. It may show on your license history and end up costing you more on your insurance in the long run. Or worse the other guy will claim he is injured
Renting. Do not buy until you get on the road and make sure this is what you want to do. I’m OTR best way to make great money in a 26’ with a lift gate.

10,000 pounds is the max u can carry I wouldn’t carry that much too much stress on the engine and with all that stuff in the back with that load u probably was over weight good thing that weight station was closed

My manz good luck to you and congratulations and all that but who giving a new authority $2000 for 4 hrs of driving thats like NYC to Baltimore with like I said New Authority don't even know the specs of the truck.
