I've seen some videos but they all say it's not a good idea, I believe in my case it would be a perfect idea as I don't have the money to buy one, but I'm in the market for a cargo van preferably a sprinter. Anyway can this work for cargo vans? Not sure if any of that is said in ur video yet.

      @@elyl78 Hello. A lot has changed in the rental game since I made this video. There are many stipulations they are implementing now due to scarcity and more so due to the bad characters who are making it tough for good people. People are running off with trucks etc. Mileage caps won’t work if you seriously want to make money. The answer is you can’t make it work if your capped. You need to find a company that won’t cap the miles or ultimately purchase your own truck.

    How does insurance work when renting a truck?

    • @markthementor
      @markthementor  Год назад +1

      Hello. Thank you for watching. You would have to put commercial auto insurance on it. Contact a commercial insurance broker and have him shop you on the market for the best rates. You’ll have to provide the VIN so they quote accurately. From there, you’d choose a company, make the down payment and your broker would submit the filings.

The only two local mom and pop rentals truck companies in our area are Elite and Chicagoland Truck Rental and last I checked they were out as well. Even if they weren’t they are usually expensive anyways. The industry is saturated at the moment and manufacturing is not at 100% as far as producing new trucks. If you have the capital I would suggest looking into purchasing a used fair priced truck. No more than $40k.

Do I use the rental insurance and up my cargo insurance to 100k and my auto liability to a million under my cargo van policy when applying under carrier packets with new brokers? or do I just rent out the box truck add that vin under my insurance and apply as a carrier under different brokers under that vin with 1 million auto liability and 100k cargo and in my city of the state of Texas they do not require commercial general liability of 1 million I have to buy that separately lost this is the only thing stopping me from getting on the Road I have just been paying my commercial insurance for a van I am not using to stay active?

Like I say all the time the margins are small in this industry so you have to keep your overhead as low as possible. Enter the game with overhead at a price point where you can make some money. Don’t go for the first thing thrown at you if you know it will substantially decrease your margins and lower your bottom line.
