Hey Gravel Boss great to see you know your numbers . I think your formula works and many new comers to the industry may benefit from your knowledge too .Keep making videos.
Thanks for the breakdown, my friend. Very insightful. So you estimate how long it'll take for you to finish a job and schedule 40 hours. Still in the, 'I just need a load of gravel for my driveway.' stage with one axle...kinda like the one in this video.
Hey Cameron, I like your break down.. It’s very well thought out! I run in your area.. Right now twin screw end dumps run for $130hr, when you made this video they were $115-$120ish How do you reconcile $20hr difference between a 5 yard and a 10 yard truck? I know there is some value in being able to squirrel in where my T800 can’t, but half the capacity is hard to ignore.. BTW, I was very tempted to buy that corn binder when you had it posted for sale a while back, just couldn’t bring myself to spend the money on another investment when Im already working 3 different jobs 🤪. Good video, see you around! B. Fischer
I'm a company flatbed tractor trailer driver stuff is always braking as much as i want to go work for myself but having insured registered fueled truck they just not paying enough for all that responsibility
I haul and pour concrete for $26/hr for a company. In my city I know dump truck drivers are getting like $32/hr as a few of my coworkers have left to go do that. I don't think charging 35 an hour on top of your baseline costs is unreasonable.
That’s what I wanna know I estimate if a 7-8yd truck is making 2500-3000 a week is a good week avg 120-150x 5 working days to the truck is good plus whatever the material cost added on top of your fee

Work for them and yourself. Then your truck breaks less, and you always have other income with the option to expand on the side if it becomes valuable

I just got in to the business with a chevy 3500 dually..
Awesome!
Great information however you didn’t calculate rent, back office staff, taxes, etc …
So how do you come up with cost to deliver say a load of gravel or other materials? Cost per ton material and what’s added to that? Thanks

How much weight can U-Haul with that single axle
8 ton legally.
That’s 30.50 boss
300$ perhour
Should be $80÷.8 to get a 20% margin, $100
two thumbs down
