One reason I like this channel is because you guys are raw and authentic and not flashy.
for the compliance book, you need the following;
1.FMCSA current rules & regulations 2.Enroll in a DOT Drug program.Keep the form with you in the book.
3:Pre Trip inspection sheet (Hours of Service)
4: Complete a driver vehicle inspection report (every day) paperwork must be in vehicle at all times
5: Certificate of Insurance / Card
6: BOC3
7:ELD paper log book
8:Medical Card
9:File for BOL ( Bill of Lading ) Shipper & receiver, when picking up a load.
10: LLC certificate / secretary of state copy
11: Make sure you have your commercial truck emergency kit especially fire extinguisher.
#2 is not for box truck owners. We do not need the drug consortium. That is for CDL tractor trailer drivers
#4 is the pre trip and is done electronically unless your ELD is down (pre trip)
Otherwise. Thanks for adding
Some of those rules don't apply to box truck only cdl drivers
If your box truck is over 26000 lbs and you need a cdl to drive, then #2 applies to you
Do you need to go through irp to get a tag for a box truck in the state of Georgia??
@@sterlingwright8179 Yes you fo. I just got mines 3 weeks ago.
Thank you for the detailed explanation about what is in the binder. Looks very organized and professional.

Great job. Your binder is very detail oriented & professional
I’ve been binge watching all weekend and taking notes. So glad I found this channel
The most helpful compliance binder checklist THANK YOU !!!
Good idea for the binder for all your DOT paperwork.. I did that as well when i was OTR and will continue doing it..
New subscriber in Las Vegas Nevada! Thank you for your honesty and easy to follow videos for us newbies. Have all my requirements in order just now searching for the "box truck" for us. Again. Thank you for the inspiration and genuine advise you are sharing - it has helped my wife and I move forward in this adventure! Keep truckin! Joe.
Thx u guys for sharing, Im very impressed w your progress. Not as easy as it seems best of luck to yall 2! Tell Walter hello!
Thanks!
Respect this channel and love the team work 💪...keep getting that $$$$$
Hi there, i enjoy watching yall's journey. Hope to start mine soon. i learn so much, i was wondering if you have a video on how the ELD works..
Great information
Thank you sister. I follow box truck bro as well. While in New Jersey the driver went to speak with a safety specialist who says you could get a hit with dot if you have obstructions in the center of your windshield. FYI
Congrats
Yea i have the same one 💪🏾
I start tomorrow thinks for the in site of what to expect.💯
The cord is called macro usb you should be able to find it at Best Buy easily.
Thanks
Girl you’re the bomb, I’m so great full for you .. me just getting started with a new authority you help ease my fear of the unknown.. thank you so much!
I’m so glad. Your welcome
Hey family 👋, replaying all videos
The way you looked at the guy on the bike pulling the lawn mower 😂 🙂😂😂
Love your video new sub researching what all I need to start my 26’ box trucking business
You can do it!
Again 1 love to you both! Will be calling you soon for some pointers. Is there anything else you've had to add to the compliance book?
Make Sure that you get the cable with right voltage. Not any cable that looks like that will work. Also, what i have seen other truckers use is run a one cable with cigarette plug and has usb ports to the dash, and on dash they got their phone mounted and gps as well. Therefore all of the cables are out of the way.
Many folks don't realize this is not a new business it's just new to today's Driver seeking employment,this work was popular in the 1980's folks didn't know hey Success On & Happy Trails 🚛🚛🚛🙏
I love ❤️ it Diva
I am in Locust Grove as well!!! Over the railroad track off Peeksville
Hi neighbor!
That's what she said got to play with it
And thank you for the garmin gps right
FIVE BELOW HAS 10 FOOT CORDS
C and MICRO
But you have the thick one that's iffy.
That will fit
I love yall so much
That is a USB mini cable. You can find on Amazon if you can't get it at walmart.
I love how they share sooooouch info!!!! Gotta love them.....
Can you talk about the DOT inspections Mrs. Christie?
Thanks for catching up on our videos. I have several roadside videos 👍🏾
Nice video
Do you know anything about a driver qualifications document? Was told we need this too
Thank you!!! Just now watching this and I’ll be contacting your eld guy tomorrow and tell him who referred him
Thanks so much. Did you reach him?
Get get get a garmin
The guy on the bike pulling the lawnmower lol..
do you have a link for the backup camera
My cigarette port don’t work as well. Can you do a video on it
i am getting my new company compliance book together as we speak
Good video! Just to let you know, anything that's on your dash window has to be below 6 inches. Anything over that is a DOT violation.
Thanks we moved it out of the way some time ago
Where do I get driver log sheets from?
Do you keep copies in the truck or are these originals?
are both you and your husband insured to drive separately or are you both covered under 1 insurance policy??? you make really good videos btw
What year does the truck have to be? To work for Amazon or logistic
Just change the cigarette lighter fuse,it’s good to have as a backup power source.
Thanks. We checked. It wasn’t the fuse 😩
God bless y’all I watch all ur videos
looking for a dispatcher I’m in South Carolina
I got a video coming out today or tomorrow with dispatcher information
Great Information! Just wanted to know if IFTA is required for a Box Truck?
December 1, 2023
What does UCR stand for?
That maybe a violation cause it’s 6 inches below the window and a visual problem.
How often do u have weight. Anytime u drive it
Amazon drivers out of Holyoke Ma. were told that they were no longer allowed to mount devices on the windshield. (it obstructs the view?) I wonder if that was because of complaints from highway patrol. If so, is that applicable in other states?
The Amazon here has not said that or made it a rule. If it was Amazon wide they would post it on the Amazon Relay notifications
Hey,how's things? Trucker brown is how I go. Need to know ,self reason.just saying hi though.
Theres a app for those scales
Box truck couple ELD question. Are you/we required to keep paper logs along with device logs? Thx you…
Your required to have paper logs in case your ELD goes down but you don’t have to keep both. If you have to use them you can’t use more than 8 days straight and also you must keep 8 days worth in your truck
www.fmcsa.dot.gov/hours-service/elds/electronic-logging-device-eld-exemptions-and-waivers
@@TheBoxtruckCouple Thank you so much for responding…
@@TheBoxtruckCouple what do we need to know before we start for safety, road rules and regulations, laws, requirements, inspection etc and where to look for these information since I didn’t do the test for cdl . Thanks
Love this video. Do you have to take your medical card to the DMV?
No you just need to have it in the truck at all times
Non cal drivers need medical cards?
Yes if you drive a vehicle over 10,001 lbs you need you DOT medical card
Thank you
I was wondering if you could comment on ELD. Specifically, does non CDL driver has to have ELD if one works on Amazon relay freight? What are the requirements for ELD in general?
I’m sorry. Could you confirm your question?
@@TheBoxtruckCouple I am sorry for the misseprint. Please see the updated question. Hereby, I would like to express my gratitude for the work you do
Commercial drivers need an ELD. It has nothing to do with who you’re driving for such as Amazon. Hours of service is a DOT rule to ensure you are driving a safe amount of hours and the FMCSA has the informations here www.fmcsa.dot.gov/regulations/hours-of-service.
We use Keep Trucking and they are great. If you need an ELD you can call my guy and tell him Christie From Meant to be trucking sent you

Thank you!
Do you need to file ifta for a rental 26 ft box truck , also do you need to register your rental truck for a hut permit or Kentucky permit?
Are you a CDL carrier. Everything your asking is for CDL carrier. If you don’t have a CDL it isn’t applicable to you
@@TheBoxtruckCouple thanks, no cdl
Ok great then none of that applies to you !
Hello how can I book a consultation with you?
make a one video for how to use ELD for box truck. i want to start new box trucking business .and which company is the good and easy to use.
and tag me please.
I have several videos where I teach you how to use keep Truckin. My rep is Edward +1 (213) 568-6771
I hope that guy was on his way to mow someone's lawn, and didn't steal that lawnmover. lol
😂😂😂
Hi can you use a 22ft for amazon relay?
No. I was in a meeting Friday about Amazon Relay. Only 26 now. You used to be able to use a 24 but that changed too
Was the keep truckin eld a one-time payment or monthly payments?
u basically pay $150 for the device then after that $30-$40 a monthly that without the camera
where did you get your ELD?
We got our ELD through keep trucking. They are easy to use and we love it.

You don't need ELD on that truck right?
Yes you do need ELD. Expecially if your driving more than 150 miles
Hey if I was you guys don't show to much of your DOT papers be careful lots of dishonest scam going on...from a retired 27 yrs Trucker retired medical Stay Safe...
Hello, I’m using you guys as my referral for KeepTruckin ELD. Question they offered free hardware with dash cam for $95 a month but I’ll pay quarterly. This includes KeepTruckin load board usage. Do you think that’s a decent deal? Thx.
Yes because you got the dash can. Good deal. Did you go through my contact?
@@TheBoxtruckCouple I’m not using your contact I had already started dealing with someone before I found your channel. But this rep will still give you the referral. I’m waiting till just before authority is active to get ELD. Thx.
@@TheBoxtruckCouple hey 👋 ♥ 😍...I used your contact and you guys name...I hope they give u guys a little something something lol
What about a driver qualification file?
Not sure what that is. Can you explain?
@@TheBoxtruckCouple
Well I keep seeing that “you must also keep a DQF for your non-CDL drivers if their vehicles meet certain weight criteria.
Interstate non-CDL drivers of vehicles that have a gross vehicle weight (GVW), gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR), gross combination weight (GCW) or gross combination weight rating (GCWR) between 10,001 and 26,000 pounds require a DQF. “ so I wasn’t sure cause I see some have it and some don’t
@@yamundowjatta8275 I researched the FMCSA website and here is what it is csa.fmcsa.dot.gov/safetyplanner/documents/Forms/Driver%20Qualification%20Checklist_508.pdf.
We are owner operators so all this doesn’t apply to us. The DQF encompasses a few things of which we have in our DOT compliance binder. Record of HOS, DOT medical cards , dot inspections and PM maintenance records. Hope that helps.
Also don’t take others advice. The FMCSA should be your go to for info. They set the rules
@@TheBoxtruckCouple thank you I’ll take a look at it. 😊
am i going to need a inspection if i’m renting?
Not the annual inspection but you are subject to DOT inspections in whatever vehicle your driving. Some brokers require x amount of time on your authority and at least 2 DoT inspectors
Thumbs up this comment if you want more dancing Kermit
You don't need proof of drung test for box truck owner?
No that’s only for semi drivers
Does non CDL box trucks require ifta taxes
No. All you have to do is google IFTA requirements. It’s fir CDL drivers with a vehicle GVW off 33,000 lbs or more. Non CDL is 26,000 pounds or less
@@TheBoxtruckCouple thank you
I have a 26ft box truck I’m right at 26000 my agent called the state and they told him I still need to file for IFTA if going OTR
Christy I was wondering where did you get your medical card?
The FMCSA has a link you click on and put in your zip code. It tells you all the doctors in your area and you choose from there. Just Google FMCSA DOT MEDICAL CARD
Thank you so much you really inspired me and my husband to get in the truck thanks for all the info 🥰😄
Do you guys have a 26ft truck??
Yes we do
Driver word of advice don’t mount GPS to high on windshield that a ticket for sure
@@smit0801 even the ELD too .. meant to be on Dash board ..
Can you give me the model number from Amazon for that gps
Sure thing. It is this one amzn.to/3xG6qc4
@@TheBoxtruckCouple thanks love the content
I have a question ? Is it illegal to do team driving in a box truck ???
You can only train driver if your Boxtruck has a sleeper. Two people can share the HOurs of service for the day but they can’t have individual hours
@@TheBoxtruckCouple thank you so much that cleared up some fear . me and my husband want to drive together .
I contract her on Instagram she sent me this video today and now I’m all compliant in my truck! Thanks BoxTruck Couple my Fav Box Truck Couple 🙏🏾❤️
So glad we could help! Be safe out there
