As a Class A OTR driver for years. There were several nuggets dropped in this video. Some similarities, and a few differences. Thank you for making this video. Love to see the knowledgeable teaching the seekers. Much respect from Texas.

Me personally, getting a van is not the problem it's the consistent load, guaranteed loads is what I need.

Man the first 5 minutes explained more that all these other videos I done watched, subscribed and bout to get my hussle on. Thanks G

I gave you a like in the first 3 minutes because you know what you are talking about. Thanks for the great video best of luck to you brother. I just retired at 65 as a building maintenance man. Never really worked in the delivery business but it's always good to know things. Did about 100 Uber trips after my regular job, didn't see any money. Also drove a NYC TLC black car.👍🇺🇸🇨🇺

Great video! As someone who’s considering entering the game, I truly appreciated your insight. Real words of wisdom in this one! 🔥

There is also the option of driving for a fleet owner before purchasing a van. Good idea if you've never been in the game local or otr.

Hi This one of rare times I can't hold myself from commenting. Overall, it is a great video. I have watched a lot of videos of Cargo Van business, and this is the best. Very transparent. Some of them will hold very important information. Instead, they throw bait fishing for people to purchase their products, such as startup packages and such. A lot of pros than cons. The only con is the language, very street one. However, that can be justified as you were speaking naturally!! Great job, and may Allah bless you .

Great information. Hopefully people like you and myself can show people how to live their life on their own terms. Much love

It definitely helped me out. Thank you very much for your honest comments. I wish you the best with your business.

When I started 10 years ago with my cargo van I made sure I had capital to work got my van plus had about 18k to last me until i got paid which was 21 to 30 days after completion of delivery now I got 4 sprinter vans running outta state and 3 bobtails also wen I started I gave myself a weekly salary the rest went to my company I never used a factoring they be robbing u sometimes 😅

Amazing breakdown, very much appreciated! I am superrrrr excited and can barely contain myself lol so I’m checking once again that I’m doing everything right and exact.

New subscriber🙂 I'm looking to start a new cargo business and I've been binging on your videos since yesterday! I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge and they way you share it. You are great!! 💯

Thanks for the knowledge So sick of click bate

Thank you for being honest about the cargo van business

Great advise bro .. really appreciate you taking the time out your day to share knowledge

Your the only OTR cargo driver I have seen staying in hotels so often.

Thanks for all the detailed information you have provided in this video. I like your way of explaining every point. Keep sharing such great videos in the future also.

I really want to thank you for making this video. I am researching this particular business field to go in. So I will continue to learn and get more knowledgeable so that I can come out the gate running in 2023. I actually have access to a cargo van that I can use. I am just trying to figure out if I want to stay local or go over the road with this business. I most definitely don't want to be driving during any kind of weather storms or conditions. I am in Ohio. 😂 Again Thank You

True, them just want you to stay put and be loyal to them so they look good and have reliable transporter on stand by to cover their loads. Have good reputation at the expense of drivers sitting, which means not making money. Got to be ready with options.

Clear and to the point. Thank you! Subscribed! 💪

I appreciate you bro frfr you put me in tha game

"Sometimes you gotta bust a move to bust another move" imma put that on the wall of my business!!

Great content. Thanks for being transparent. I'm saving to get a van get started.Keep em coming.

Much love fam word bond. You got that Motown or ohio swag for real. I've learned a plethora fam. I'm a trucker by trade ready to jump off into cargo. Much love and keep rising to the top !

Thanks for the info men ! I’m saving to get van to get start and I’m subscribe

Thanks. Cracking video, sometimes you got to Bust a move to Bust another move. Love it.

Thank you, bro. for the great honest information, hope your business grow more and more and more

Believe me, nothing is better than having your own authority and booking for your own load without anyone in the middle of the way because even if you don't believe it, they will always knock down some of your money, you have more work to do but you earn more to.

Thanks for the info man. Everything makes sense. More blessings your way bro. 🙏🏼

New subscriber! Best description I’ve heard so far! May all the blessings come your way! THANK YOU!

Good stuff bro. Definitely looking to grab a high roof and start local routes as 1099 here in Maryland

This information is invaluable, thank you brother, I just subbed and liked this video. Least I could do.

I hope y'all listening cuz this is the best way I think and usco that is if you got your own van ya feel me you can make some money and you gotta be willing to drive and I mean no bull sheeting if you don't like to do you already done land lover in one place

thank you brotha for the amazing tips.sharing of knowledge is always welcomed here.wish you the best with your business.

luah you for this bruh bruh i'll give you yo props when i start

Thank you for the helpful hints

I like your way of thinking!! Good info!! I'm looking to get into the game now.

Thanks, such a good content. Where do u take a shover amd how you sleep?

When you run under a company as a carrier you just need a like a liability or full coverage insurance for your van

thanks for sharing your experience and expertise

as a class a driver, i had a lease purchase deal with a company that would lock me in on a TQL load for like 1.30 would send me a fake ratecon, turned out they got paid 1.68 on it. It turned out they did that alot to me and I didn't know it. Def gotta shop the market.

Thank you man👍, may god bless you more.🤝

I’m trying to get my own van by next week and start the business 👍

Thanks brother for sharing your experience, god bless you my man🤛🏽

Thanks a lot

Dispatcher not Disbatcher..lol got it bro🤣🤣🤣

Love the content boss, been an owner/op myself running big trucks though. Switching over to sprinters soon. Btw, it’s “dis-patcher”, not “dis-Batcher”. Keep gettin that loot! 💪🏾

Great video. I want to save this video but I do not see how to do this.

Thanks for the video! Would like to know a few things, if we have our MC running two flatbeds and would like to get a sprinter and to hire a driver.What to do in this case correctly ? 1.The Sprinter doesn't require MC ,but the Insurance is under our MC? 2.How to get the driver as contracor?does he need to open LLC or SP?

I appreciate you taking the time out and spreading the knowledge a lot of valuable information I needed to know I found out about you through big CJ follow him as I'll be in the game soon

Yeah bruh just grabbed a sprinter hoping to make this thing take off

Super amigo gra ias por la informacion el proximo año compro mi primer van 😀😄😎

Aye salute to u G I do the same thing me and my cousin started our own company wit the Dodge Ram pro master 2500…everything u saying sound correct to me…especially the part about using multiple carriers and not sitting for three days type thing. We have our own authority but we still use 9 diff Carrie’s like empire national and home land. The key is to keep that van rolling Fr. This def some god advice I can vouch that. Check out army of five we have some videos too but everything he said is legit

The question is : After their 15% , how much you end up with per mile ?? After your fuel ?? what's the average per hour ?

What do you recommend to start with vehical wise? Year, make and model without killing the bank, tools that is mandatory for this line of work?

Thank you brotha I jus got my van yesterday

Preciate you for that fam. Thaz a lot of info that you just shot us. #Respect

Cuz your the realist an straight to the point that's what is needed YES cut the other joint out I'm about to get in the game an that's all I needed to hear

Can u break down your weekly Earnings and overhead?

Thank you for the info brother. Hope to see you around the Bay Area!

Good video

how could i get in the game by say renting a truck from a place like enterprise or something ? i got a lot a info already but nobody seemed to have rented a truck until the run up enough to get their own. idk if my idea is dumb but i seen semis for rent on there so it’s a thought. help would be gladly appreciated my g cuz this vid already gave me more insight than the rest. clear cut direct info. thank you in advance 🤞🏽

God Bless you...good video

Very helpful information

Do you need a factoring company when you have your own authority and using a loadboard or dispatcher?

Great video,thank you.

Honestly I think the 15% is worth it if you're using their insurance. How much does commercial insurance cost though a month? I wouldn't mind buying a truck and having normal insurance on it and just paying for gas if commercial insurance is that much.

Do you have a video about your van setup? What you need in it? Do you sleep in your van?

With all that being said, seems like you do pretty good just running local around the bay using the apps

Thanks to sharing us ur experience 👌😎

how do you get started running under a carrier if your renting a sprinter van ? or should I just wait on it until I get my own authority ? hoping by the end of July to have all that completed. running courier and Amazon flex. I have several years of logistics and dispatch experience, but it's been a while. started getting into courier work when my husband got laid off from the union hall for a bit now thinking we'd be able to replace his income if not surpass it doing transport work. I live in NJ so I'm pretty sure we can do regional northeast runs and make it work , there are probably about 8 Amazon ( wanna do box truck relay as well through Amazon and using day and other boards ) warehouses just within 30 mile radius from us, plus a ton of other warehouses.

found my new sub, thank you sir.

i'd like to get into this but i dont own a sprinter or cargo van

Great info👍🏾✊🏾

good info

Hi, you provided some great info for me as I'm just getting started in the business. Question about the mc and dot number. I was told by others if you're under 10k Gross weight it's not necessary, because if you have it and when you get your log book audit they will deactivate you as won't have one. Thoughts?

what about having no middle man and just deal with shippers and receivers more money no?

70-80 cents a mile is less than uber/lyft

I have a cargo van in Illinois and want to learn this business after being laid- off? How is the business for woman? I want to know are you doing the heavy lifting? I also have a 2500 pickup truck with a snow plow and salt spreader and want to learn that business too.

Good looks bro much respect ✌🏾

Lol intro is awesome

Appreciate the content.Want to start asap.

What the best cargo van to get to all the loads

Appreciate the info bro

It can vary. We Pay 3%

Bro..Hella impressed!

appreciate the advice bro.

Great video, very useful, thank you. How many pallets can you fit into your van please? And what roughly you can make per week with the size of your van? Thank you.

Thank you for this

I'm wondering if it's worth it because that insurance is the same approach to having insurance on a semi trucking trailer with a million dollar coverage and I dont know if van cargo make as much as a semi.

Thanks for the Great content boss! I’m from the Bay as well! My question to you is, can you make good money in cargo van local only? Keep up the good work 👏🏼

Seem like it would be a pain in the Azz To sleep in the van At least semi has a sleeper and a few amenities It’s like hot shot drivers sleeping in their trucks Just seems tough to do especially like in the Deep South in the middle of summer

RTS Factoring is 3 percent

much Love.....

Thx for the information bro

Very helpful 👍

Do you recommend I go under my own authority?

Big dawg....I have a 2020 Ford Transit 2500 Sprinter Van extended....which straps should I use to tie down my freight ?

Great info! Where do I find dispatchers if I am just starting?

I wouldn’t take any less than $2 a mile, I heard you say $1 a mile and there’s no money in that after gas etc.
