Bro, I FREAKING LOVE HOW YOUR TALKING TO US LIKE WE DONT UNDERSTAND ANYTHING ABOUT THE BUSINESS. Far too often, people in the business make these videos as though they are speaking to other delivery drivers. Thank you for keeping it simple.
A truck driving job can earn you a good living. There’s also lots of jobs out there in the industry, that aren’t worth having, I’ll give you that. But, if you really want to make it as a trucker, whether company driver or owner operator, YOU NEED TO MAKE IT HAPPEN. I bought my first trucking after receiving $215k from Federal Grant for Trucking and Transportation business startup program in 2015. Today been an owner operator after taxes, fuel and licensing I profit $190,000 in the bank. My advice; Get your own authority and work open broker boards for trips. A good starting place as an o/o is to pull a reefer. Try to stay away from dry freight. There are too many green o/o’s in dry freight, and too many coming and going. The competition is fierce, so it is difficult to get high paying loads. Reefers pay more money. If you have some flatbed experience, you will get even better loads and better miles. I wish everyone reading this comment a successful business week.

Nice video. Keep it up Gill.Trucking is a great occupation which yields a lot of money but not everyone is lucky speaking from the other side if you understand, I was into trucking about 6 years ago and as at then I worked for FedEx before I went on driving trucks for companies which I was taken advantage of until I became so fed up and made up my mind of being an entrepreneur of my own and decided to hire and highly skilled and licensed grant writer and editor to help me through my application on government grants and I was awarded $500k as a startup capital and today I can proudly bold of owning my own truck company in which I make over 37k a month as my profit and now I'm in the process of starting up a daycare business for my wife and a salon for my sister. So therefore determination is a key to good living and erasing the mentality of being and underdog too helps a lot, knowing your worth also, I know not everyone is determined to be successful in life but my advice is for you to not be among the Unsuccessful ones.
@@kalyanpaterson8134 Yes, you can! So long as the work fits each funder's requirements, and the timing matches your needs. The budget section of the proposal often asks for sources of support, and you can indicate there that you're asking multiple sources, including other foundations. Note that you can only submit one proposal to the funder at a time, but you can submit a proposal to many funders at once. I hope that was clearer than mud!
This is the first time I ever felt obligated to comment, you deserve it 🙏🏾 if you ever end up seeing this comment, I’m very interested in working with you & helping you grow you RUclips channel, I can film for you & help edit, I’m also getting into trucking as well so I’m definitely looking to work with you. Keep grinding and thank you for the knowledge! It’s priceless
I've been in the transportation field for a few decades. This video would be very helpful to anyone wanting to start a box truck company. Don't expect to be cashing fat checks that put you in the black, right off. It takes times and there's a huge learning curve. I feel the most important thing after the equipment, permits and insurance is satisfied, is to get at least 1 person who knows the industry. They will be very valuable to you. There's money to be made as long as your employees are able to take care of the truck and customers. Which is very hard to find.

Dude you are 🔥! So many RUclipsrs out there trying to get money by taking their course. You didn’t have to do this but because you have, I appreciate you.
I have been in logistics about 10 years and I must say this is as close to SPON ON that you can get. The numbers are close as he specified however understanding market rates, revenue and expenses can change. Outside of that STELLAR video fam! Just do you own due diligence on the specifics that weren’t mentioned avg cost per week for fuel, areas to avoid, the woes of dispatching and respective fees, factoring among things. Remember it’s in the details and be LOYAL to no team except on load by load base. This is an extremely demanding and cut throat job, career and or business. Despite it all set yourself for freedom not failure. NEVER be afraid to simply ask a question- if you short change yourself NOW you’ll do the same for the generations behind you. Selah!

I just recently started driving box trucks for a company in my city, applied for warehouse position but ended up getting hired as a driver of a 26ft box truck with 0 experience,delivering industrial cleaning supplies to local schools nursing etc. I got threw into the fire after my second week of training and had to drive in a bad snow storm my 3rd week being out there. From that day I feel in love with the job because it gave me the confidence knowing I can do this job safe and efficiently no matter the circumstances. I’m 29 years old it’s going on 3 years since I started and I love my job they treat me well, but I’m searching for something more and 100 percent sure this is wat I want to do.

Thank you Gill22, very good video, I’m in the box business for about 3 years, broke but still standing. Having new equipment/truck,separation of business & personal accounts, money put aside/cash flow & website are the keys for your success. Guys take them seriously & thank you x 3 Gill 22 for your reminder & advice. Franck.
I'm interested in starting a box truck business, I'm located southern California (riverside). Thought I would shout out and give you a big thank you!! Much love brother. You gave me a lot of free information.
Thank you Gill22 for providing this great, detailed information. You broke everything down in laymen's terms to help us get started in the box truck business. Thank you so much!!
Hey man just wanted to say this is a great well made video. I owned a trucking company for about 10 years and you nailed some of the stuff people never think of. I also early on almost lost everything over maintenance cost because I did not have enough money set aside. Ive done everything from local pick up and delivery for air freight companies to last mile stuff for retail companies and expediting for mostly the automotive or manufacturing industry. Trucking is a great way to make an income and is a fairly easy business to start.
Me too got tht x and i been driving local for KAG. Netting abt 1800 a week. I save over a grand a week. Idk wat ill invest in but i wont be driving forever
I been owner operator - 53 foot dry van, loaded myself on DAT and truckstop load boards, I did price negotiation, did contract with brocker, recieved rate confirmation, sent POD, sent invoices to brockers or factoring company, keep maitanance record for truck, posted my truck on macropoint and did much more in order to provide excelent service. Good oral and writing comunication skils, fast typing.

Gill22, THANK YOU! I've been researching this business for quite some time and this is ABSOLUTELY the most informative, easy to understand breakdown of the process to get started.
Hey Gill. My name is Donald. I just finished watching your video on how to start your truck business. I want to thank you for all the information you gave me it is very helpful to me and hopefully I will be as successful as you are. I do have a question. How do you get paid and from who? And how long does it take for you to get paid? Again thank you for this very insightful video.
OMG!!! I found the perfect person and information that I was looking, this video is not just helpful is the best information ever. Thank you so much sir for all your kindness
Wow ! That was excellent! I just started my journey. I have my llc, ein and working on the dot/mc/ucr etc next. In my area I seen someone charge $1200 a week to rent a truck. I was so close to thinking of doing that but you made sense by saying to just finance my own truck. I will look into that also. I have navy federal. I will see what they say.

Starting early is simply. The best way of getting ahead to build wealth, investing remains a priority. I learnt from my last year’s experience, I was able to build a suitable life because I invested early ahead this time.

Website one page like an add in yellow pages phone book. Newspaper, mailer's... Business cards? Kinda makes sense, you cold calls, load board, emails... Sounds good, not sure it's needed to start... Just a thought Great work really
Hi Gill, do shippers require experience before engaging with new business entities? I have a registered LLC transitioning from a company driver. Kindly advise
Some brokers are reluctant to work with new authorities,so you do want to find brokers that work with new authorities. I only had a few torn me away when I started didn’t have a issue. Now I’m way paths 90days requirement.
Very informative video Gill! LA viewer here. Been watching your videos for some time now. I'm currently 7 months into the owner/op venture, and recently purchased a vehicle as well as found a dedicated lane lasting a year roughly a month and a half ago via broker for DDU. Also never knew FedEx routes existed! Sounds like a definite future investment that could pay off. I'd imagine that's an expense for owner/ops with a small fleet though, right? How many trucks would you recommend when starting this? I'd imagine them to be 26ft as well, right?
I had a friends that had 13 26 for box and had an account with FedEx for 8 years. They kept Nicole and dime him to death and he lost that business and the account with FedEx. They would have over 100 stops per truck sometimes, plus FedEx strict timeline when you could deliver and pickup package it fucking crazy and you get hit with penalties if you are to early on pickup and late on drops off. That account is not what people think it is and it can be very hard on you and your drivers to meet the deadlines. He grossed over $900,000, but with the cost of fuel, insurance, truck cost, truck maintenance, worker compensation, pay into unemployment insurance, truck insurance, adt payroll account and etc... the money starts to go very fast and before you know it you can't keep up. He had to buy 2 extra use truck to to have back in case he had a break down in his fleet cause you can't miss the route FedEx assign you are they fined you a penalty and take money from you. This is Southern California by the way.
@@906lane I'm wondering how a driver covers 100 stops a day and how that pay works out. Seems like you'd be paying way more than $500 per driver even on the low end. I currently work with a company that just started and is taking in multiple usps routes. It seems like there's maybe 36 max routes each night and the most stops is around 14 (they deliver to USPS). I'd imagine something smaller like that would be much more manageable if you hire owner/ops. Sure your profit wouldn't be as good, but you'd save all that money on the trucks, insurance, and repairs- right? Why not follow that model rather than buying or renting a ton of trucks?
@@906lane i used to work for FedEx as a delivery driver and what Gill22 said about doing your research before getting into this is very true. FedEx isn’t like ups or usps. UPS and USPS both have all of there services together unlike FedEx and if you don’t do your research you’ll be getting into the wrong service. I believe your friend got into FedEx ground and not FedEx freight and this is what i mean about FedEx having there services divided. FedEx has i think between 5 to 8 different branches of there services and you have to look into what you’re getting into
This is a little off topic, but is it always best to start with the van/truck that you can pay for outright? Or is it worth financing/writing off a truck with a business loan? I feel starting small, like a ford e350 and doing local runs with low end things until I have enough to buy a larger van?
I have a mini van and started doing it with it. When I realized I wasn't making enough.money I my area to cover my insurance, gas and pay myself, I stopped. May not be for everyone so research your area first.
@@lucylucy2171 i would like to know how you got the work? Was it enough and consistency runs or spotty here and there thus NOT enough income? Was you a single man show? I have someone who was in box truck on and off last 20 yrs, proposed to be partner, I provide capital and he is operator, we plan with 1 box truck to try for 30 days with local residential moving service.

The only l going to say is that you don't need 40% of what he said to be successful starting and the money that he's talking that you could make it could be gross but no net and that's the biggest failure on newbies that only see the gross like the 1.5M in fedex route but he didn't mention how many truck will be making that on my guess about 17 trucks
Do you have a better way. I'm in a big city. He say this. You saying I will need all he say. Well how do you succeed in this. He says this the best way to start a business. Please tell 🇺🇸 us

So therefore determination is a key to good living and erasing the mentality of being and underdog too helps a lot, knowing your worth also, I know not everyone is determined to be successful in life but my advice is for you to not be among the Unsuccessful ones.
I've been trying to get up the confidence to apply for grants. How much does a quality grant writer charge on average?
Im seeing 2 to 3% of the grant amount.
@@tashyam7736 I would say it depends on the grant writer and the services that are set to be rendered.
Can we apply the same work for different grants? Or do we have to submit different works for each grant that we applying simultaneously to?
@@kalyanpaterson8134 Yes, you can! So long as the work fits each funder's requirements, and the timing matches your needs. The budget section of the proposal often asks for sources of support, and you can indicate there that you're asking multiple sources, including other foundations. Note that you can only submit one proposal to the funder at a time, but you can submit a proposal to many funders at once. I hope that was clearer than mud!
Love your videos. You're the best educator when it comes to trucking...free, honest knowledge sharing. Thank you!
This is the first time I ever felt obligated to comment, you deserve it 🙏🏾 if you ever end up seeing this comment, I’m very interested in working with you & helping you grow you RUclips channel, I can film for you & help edit, I’m also getting into trucking as well so I’m definitely looking to work with you. Keep grinding and thank you for the knowledge! It’s priceless
I've been in the transportation field for a few decades. This video would be very helpful to anyone wanting to start a box truck company. Don't expect to be cashing fat checks that put you in the black, right off. It takes times and there's a huge learning curve. I feel the most important thing after the equipment, permits and insurance is satisfied, is to get at least 1 person who knows the industry. They will be very valuable to you. There's money to be made as long as your employees are able to take care of the truck and customers. Which is very hard to find.
Are you interested in renting a truck I have nice trucks for rent and for sale and you don't need any insurance because I have done everything and i give you a 3 years warranty
Dude you are 🔥! So many RUclipsrs out there trying to get money by taking their course. You didn’t have to do this but because you have, I appreciate you.
I have been in logistics about 10 years and I must say this is as close to SPON ON that you can get. The numbers are close as he specified however understanding market rates, revenue and expenses can change. Outside of that STELLAR video fam! Just do you own due diligence on the specifics that weren’t mentioned avg cost per week for fuel, areas to avoid, the woes of dispatching and respective fees, factoring among things. Remember it’s in the details and be LOYAL to no team except on load by load base. This is an extremely demanding and cut throat job, career and or business. Despite it all set yourself for freedom not failure. NEVER be afraid to simply ask a question- if you short change yourself NOW you’ll do the same for the generations behind you. Selah!
Greetings from Havana, Cuba. I'm working on a Construction Company and instead of this video is about trucks Companies set up. Honestly, It has helped me a lot to understand how it does work. So, great video man! 👏🏻

I just recently started driving box trucks for a company in my city, applied for warehouse position but ended up getting hired as a driver of a 26ft box truck with 0 experience,delivering industrial cleaning supplies to local schools nursing etc. I got threw into the fire after my second week of training and had to drive in a bad snow storm my 3rd week being out there. From that day I feel in love with the job because it gave me the confidence knowing I can do this job safe and efficiently no matter the circumstances. I’m 29 years old it’s going on 3 years since I started and I love my job they treat me well, but I’m searching for something more and 100 percent sure this is wat I want to do.
How is it possible that you’re almost thirty and can’t write at a 5th grade level? “…got threw into the fire…” is my favorite new phrase.
@@user-mh1qt4ln5gI could understand perfectly what he saying getcho lame ass on mfs be saying whatever on the internet
@@user-mh1qt4ln5g There's rappers who can't type for crap and they make millions people who cant speak english well and barely type it got good jobs, whats your problem?
Don't worry about his writing ability. You have more important problems of your own to deal with. Like how infested with misery you are that you would actually take the time to reply with an attempt to cut someone down like that completely unprovoked. Did it make you feel better about yourself? Surely you realize you're still the same empty soul after that wears off. Then I guess it's on to the next victim right?! Trying to suck the energy out of others like a parasite. You're going to die sad, alone and early if you don't change. Even a 5th grader can figure out that you are damaged goods. @@user-mh1qt4ln5g
Thank you Gill22, very good video, I’m in the box business for about 3 years, broke but still standing. Having new equipment/truck,separation of business & personal accounts, money put aside/cash flow & website are the keys for your success. Guys take them seriously & thank you x 3 Gill 22 for your reminder & advice. Franck.
I'm interested in starting a box truck business, I'm located southern California (riverside). Thought I would shout out and give you a big thank you!! Much love brother. You gave me a lot of free information.
im in the riverside business. Lets link !!!!
My husband just bought a FedEx route! Best decision EVER
If you don't mind me asking? Is your husband delivering to a warehouse or door to door/store to store once he picks up?
Buying a box truck with a refer is a plus do to the fact you can cover restaurants as a contract driver. Your own company.
Glad I found this video thinking about buying two box trucks to start off and this really helped me ❤
Thank you for sharing this knowledge. May God bless you in all that you do! 🙏🏽
Thank you Gill22 for providing this great, detailed information. You broke everything down in laymen's terms to help us get started in the box truck business. Thank you so much!!
Hey man just wanted to say this is a great well made video. I owned a trucking company for about 10 years and you nailed some of the stuff people never think of. I also early on almost lost everything over maintenance cost because I did not have enough money set aside. Ive done everything from local pick up and delivery for air freight companies to last mile stuff for retail companies and expediting for mostly the automotive or manufacturing industry. Trucking is a great way to make an income and is a fairly easy business to start.
What state you located ?
Thanks for the tips bro you actually make it easier to learn respect bro
Glade I got my cdl and x endorsement tanker and hazmat
Me too got tht x and i been driving local for KAG. Netting abt 1800 a week. I save over a grand a week. Idk wat ill invest in but i wont be driving forever
I been owner operator - 53 foot dry van, loaded myself on DAT and truckstop load boards, I did price negotiation, did contract with brocker, recieved rate confirmation, sent POD, sent invoices to brockers or factoring company, keep maitanance record for truck, posted my truck on macropoint and did much more in order to provide excelent service.

Hey I loved this video! It’s direct clear and has a great vibe. I’d love to see a video on getting loads on the load board and direct shippers
Me too, that is my exact request.
Let's do this...
thus far is the best step by step video on how to set up thanks
Hey Gill. My name is Donald. I just finished watching your video on how to start your truck business. I want to thank you for all the information you gave me it is very helpful to me and hopefully I will be as successful as you are. I do have a question. How do you get paid and from who? And how long does it take for you to get paid? Again thank you for this very insightful video.
From broker or factoring company (depending how your spot load invoices are managed) and shipper if working directly with the manufacturer
OMG!!! I found the perfect person and information that I was looking, this video is not just helpful is the best information ever. Thank you so much sir for all your kindness
Thank Gil I learned so much from you. I'm just starting off and I'm so happy I ran across your videos

Thank you. I failed once. Ready to try again. Thanks for the advice. Truly appreciate it.
How did you fail?
The best box truck video I've ever watched. Very informative. 🙂
Wow ! That was excellent! I just started my journey. I have my llc, ein and working on the dot/mc/ucr etc next. In my area I seen someone charge $1200 a week to rent a truck. I was so close to thinking of doing that but you made sense by saying to just finance my own truck. I will look into that also. I have navy federal. I will see what they say. Thank you again for being so informative sir. Instantly follow/subscribe
How did it go? I have Navy Federal as well.
How’s it going so far ? Any updates ?

I work for FedEx, I run my company, FedEx does NOT let you buy a route with one truck, you are NOW required to have at least 8 trucks to own any routes. Ignore his last piece of advice
8 trucks???? That is wild
Mr.chris you have a tracking business? Which state?
Wtf? I was planning on getting one, but not anymore
Your saying to buy a route from your company you work for, you’re required to own 8 trucks?
I work at fed ex. Why has it gotten so bad. Been there 7 years. Used to LOVE this place.
This helped me so much I’m trying learn the basics ready to buy a truck but know nothing about the business

Starting early is simply. The best way of getting ahead to build wealth, investing remains a priority. I learnt from my last year’s experience, I was able to build a suitable life because I invested early ahead this time.
I’m celebrating a $30k stock portfolio today. I started this journey with 6k. I have invested on time and also with the right terms now I have time for my family and the life ahead of me
Wow, really. I was able to make my $25k on investment

What type of LLC would be best to choose of when going for the dispatching/ box trucking business?
LLC. Small corporation.

I was a driver for a small box truck company and I was all over the US … from NYC all the way to Cali loved it 😁
Direct shipper loads please
Thanks for taking the time and providing honest, fact- based information.
Thanks man for this educational video.
Website one page like an add in yellow pages phone book. Newspaper, mailer's...
Business cards?
Kinda makes sense, you cold calls, load board, emails...
Sounds good, not sure it's needed to start...
Just a thought
Great work really
Hi Gill, do shippers require experience before engaging with new business entities? I have a registered LLC transitioning from a company driver. Kindly advise
Some brokers are reluctant to work with new authorities,so you do want to find brokers that work with new authorities.
I only had a few torn me away when I started didn’t have a issue. Now I’m way paths 90days requirement.
Very informative video Gill! LA viewer here. Been watching your videos for some time now. I'm currently 7 months into the owner/op venture, and recently purchased a vehicle as well as found a dedicated lane lasting a year roughly a month and a half ago via broker for DDU.
Also never knew FedEx routes existed! Sounds like a definite future investment that could pay off. I'd imagine that's an expense for owner/ops with a small fleet though, right? How many trucks would you recommend when starting this? I'd imagine them to be 26ft as well, right?
I had a friends that had 13 26 for box and had an account with FedEx for 8 years. They kept Nicole and dime him to death and he lost that business and the account with FedEx. They would have over 100 stops per truck sometimes, plus FedEx strict timeline when you could deliver and pickup package it fucking crazy and you get hit with penalties if you are to early on pickup and late on drops off. That account is not what people think it is and it can be very hard on you and your drivers to meet the deadlines. He grossed over $900,000, but with the cost of fuel, insurance, truck cost, truck maintenance, worker compensation, pay into unemployment insurance, truck insurance, adt payroll account and etc... the money starts to go very fast and before you know it you can't keep up. He had to buy 2 extra use truck to to have back in case he had a break down in his fleet cause you can't miss the route FedEx assign you are they fined you a penalty and take money from you.
This is Southern California by the way.
Those are the exact same rules and regulations that Amazon Relay have.
@@906lane I'm wondering how a driver covers 100 stops a day and how that pay works out. Seems like you'd be paying way more than $500 per driver even on the low end.
I currently work with a company that just started and is taking in multiple usps routes. It seems like there's maybe 36 max routes each night and the most stops is around 14 (they deliver to USPS). I'd imagine something smaller like that would be much more manageable if you hire owner/ops. Sure your profit wouldn't be as good, but you'd save all that money on the trucks, insurance, and repairs- right? Why not follow that model rather than buying or renting a ton of trucks?
@@906lane i used to work for FedEx as a delivery driver and what Gill22 said about doing your research before getting into this is very true. FedEx isn’t like ups or usps. UPS and USPS both have all of there services together unlike FedEx and if you don’t do your research you’ll be getting into the wrong service. I believe your friend got into FedEx ground and not FedEx freight and this is what i mean about FedEx having there services divided. FedEx has i think between 5 to 8 different branches of there services and you have to look into what you’re getting into

Do you still need all the permits (mc and dot) if you’re renting or leasing a truck?
Yea, for any truck over 10k lbs gvw, shippers, brokers, insurance companies won't deal with you without them.
This is a little off topic, but is it always best to start with the van/truck that you can pay for outright? Or is it worth financing/writing off a truck with a business loan? I feel starting small, like a ford e350 and doing local runs with low end things until I have enough to buy a larger van?
I have a mini van and started doing it with it. When I realized I wasn't making enough.money I my area to cover my insurance, gas and pay myself, I stopped. May not be for everyone so research your area first.
@@lucylucy2171 i would like to know how you got the work? Was it enough and consistency runs or spotty here and there thus NOT enough income? Was you a single man show?

Thank u thank I so much for this knowledge
This so impressive & educative
The only l going to say is that you don't need 40% of what he said to be successful starting and the money that he's talking that you could make it could be gross but no net and that's the biggest failure on newbies that only see the gross like the 1.5M in fedex route but he didn't mention how many truck will be making that on my guess about 17 trucks
This guy sounds like he is fos. Thank u
Do you have a better way. I'm in a big city. He say this. You saying I will need all he say. Well how do you succeed in this. He says this the best way to start a business. Please tell 🇺🇸 us
