This is a interview I did with a customer after I finished installing his rooftop A/C and Maxxair fan. He is going to give you his opinion on the expediting industry. Along with some pros and cons in his experience over his first 6 months.

I've been doing this for a few months now, have a 2018 Promaster and have been averaging 2-3 weeks out and a week home. Im also an O/O making plenty and it's nice to travel as well as be my own boss etc. Have a folding cot with a nice comfortable mattress that rolls up, have usually canned foods, bread and pb/ jelly and lunch meat etc.. saves on costs as well as no need for hotels.

How much are you grossing per week?
@RedsCustomDesign
@RedsCustomDesign 2 жыл бұрын
If you need a weekly paycheck this isn't the job for you. You have good weeks where you may gross (that's before expenses) $5k+ and there's other weeks you may not even get a load (but you still have your fixed expenses to pay). You can average gross $80k+ depending on you, the company, the area, the loads, the price, etc. Grossing $100k is not out of the question if you are a decent runner.

My Promaster 1500 136" wb (two sliding side doors) has 2 E Tracks on the floor and one on each rear wall, as well as an AC/Heat unit hanging from the ceiling near the rear doors. I think it may have been used for catering! There is enough room to slide the food carriers, strap them in and have your living space behind the front seats. The foldup divider and foldup bed are genius solutions as well!

If you're going to drive for owner you better take 60/ 40 and you better get your fuel service charges 100% or it's not worth it... Any owner that decides he's going to keep the fuel service charges is a crook... And make sure you can get your 60% loaded on your Comdata card right away, that way you have your fuel money and your living money and also that way your fuel service Chargers end up becoming your payroll and guaranteed that coming in every week... I expedited for over 10 years.. I worked for two absolutely outstanding owners when my first owner passed away I went with somebody for 4 months from November to February... And when Freight wasn't running and I was sitting for 10 days in North Dakota in the cold he decided he was going to stop paying me... it took me almost a month to find a new owner and I wouldn't have been able to survive if the few loads that I did take I wouldn't have had my 60% loaded he kept all my fuel service charges for 4 months he owes me a little over $4,000 and I'll never see it... So you make sure you sign a contract that is binding... And always make sure that any equipment AKA your van you treat like it was yours... Keep it clean you take care of your equipment and your equipment will take care of you

Thanks. If your going to be a owner operator you will need at least $10k (up to 3 weeks fuel, Bills, and maintenance. You need to keep at least a $5k maintenance fund).

I am considering getting into the sprinter van expediting business. Can anyone tell me what average dollar amount is insurance going to cost me per month? So I see a comment about fuel charges and I want to be sure I understand this. If im an owner/ operator what should the company I work for be paying me for fuel? One company I looked into said I get a .10/.20 sure charge so that would meat that 80/90% of fuel comes out of my pocket ...correct? Any feed back would be appreciated. One more thing , Chris in this video I see works for Barret, there are located in the town I live in Bentonville Ar. Is this a good company to work for?

From what I gathered insurance price depends on your driving history, location (state you live in), your credit score, and insurance company. Some companies that you sign in to do expediting exclusively for them will put you their insurance policy for about $150 a week ($8000 a year). That is considered cheap. In some states the insurance can reach as high as $20,000 a year if you are doing it for yourself. Just check with different companies in your area or internet. This kills the profit.

Depends on if you book your own loads, or are using multiple carriers. Then you have to carry a 1 million dollar cargo/ liability insurance. Or if you are leased to a company you can get it through them. But that depends on the company. Regular auto insurance won't be, it has to be "for hire".

Love the build, but would the van handle better and safer, due to wheel base dynamics, if the freight was carried behind the driver (middle of the vehicle), as opposed to behind the back wheels? Although it seems like maybe the Promaster has a better wheel base ratio than the Transit or Sprinter, but maybe that depends on the van length. Some vans have doors on both sides, which would be handy for freight.

They do pretty good like this. If you have one pallet you push it forward to the wall. That puts it in front of the rear axle.

Question: does the color of the van matters? What if I am O/O but I work for X company.

It depends on the company. Some require a white van only.

I'm new to the expediting world. I've done all of driving and similar jobs. But I'm about to start my first job expediting. The deal I have is working for an owner the split is 50/50. They pay for all the fuel, maintenance, etc.. would you say that's a good situation to be in? Really looking for some help and insight. Plus any advice would be awesome!

So you are getting 50% of what? 50% of line haul? 50% after fuel and expenses? You need to know what you are getting 50% of.
