@@rollingops they are around, join one of the many business clubs in your area they are great for networking, because dollar to donuts there is an owner needing a service they don't know exists in their area and most results on google are from people outside of your area cause the can afford to advertise
I used to be a business owner of trucks. What you are going through is why I got out, started operating under 26,000. Don't have IFTA, got permanent plates, making the same money.
I'm from IRELAND and I thought our Government was bad with Red tape but our Government here in IRELAND is so much better than what you have to do in the USA keep up the good work just found your channel and looking at a few videos on the TV
Did you get the tarp figured out behind the scenes? I heard you mention when crawling on top of it lol. I saw a video come through my feed the other day that would alleviate the issues you were having with it I’d be happy to forward it to you if you guys were still fighting with it
I'm guessing if you stay under cdl you would still need Commercial insurance? That's what I'm trying to figure out, also I know this varies but what's Commercial insurance cost monthly?
Mc number, dot number, ifta, cdl, medical, drug screening, log books, if you are going far or not coming home every night then eld systems are required ( little more complex than I'm bothering to say here)
Hey mate its in every country. They won't take credit cards over the phone cause you need to identified to stop credit card fraud. We can't even use cheques in Australia anymore. if I had to go thru the same process as you It is an 8ish hour drive
Yea, absolutely. But they could do an ACH transfer from the bank, or a wire. Where the bank would need to confirm details too. There are definitely options where this could be handed digitally.
@@rollingops You do realise the rules are in place from 20+ years ago with I remember the click-clack card inker that need a manual form and they had people back in the day in every locality to collect taxes on behalf of the government.They centralised power without reforming the law and this is the situation everyone is in now
Government:”you want to drive a car that can go 180+, no problem. Oh you want to start a business to get out of the rat race? Yeah that’s gonna be 37000 a year and you need to get 15 certifications. Oh and you make $100 from this business…”
These rich men north of Richmond Lord knows they all just wanna have total control Wanna know what you think, wanna know what you do And they don't think you know, but I know that you do 'Cause your dollar ain't shit and it's TAXED TO NO END 'Cause of rich men north of Richmond.
I live In AZ and my CDL office in town said they didn’t care how much weight I’m holding as long as my truck and trailer alone don’t weigh over 26k they don’t care. I told them my truck alone is RATED to carry 30k and they didn’t care
Lol. Yea, they don't care. But i promise they won't come to your defense when the DOT officer says otherwise. If I had a dollar for everytime I had to better explain something to the DMV office. .
Like someone said lower trailer to 12,000 then you don’t need to go through all the hassles and extra work. Just print off a new sticker for 12,000 and go into licensing and change ownership to same weight. It’s done all the time. Rarely are you going to be over on weight and the chances of them checking are slim to none. Case closed 😉
THAT was a long time ago. I started driving trucks in 1991 and I don't remember any trucks having multiple plates. I'd seen them before, but not since I've been driving.
@@keithsj10ya I retired 7 years ago. It was still going then in NV and CA. UPS had already started phasing the diesel trucks out ahead of the pre2008 ban that California has now just implemented.
Cool men I want to get everything in order to keep hauling thanks for replying we follow you from new mexico I just hope I don't have to go to the capital 😀
Ultimately it always comes down to a combination of money and performing some kind of obeisance to the powers that be. It is never in their best interest to make your life easier.
Once you get in CDL territory I feel you just need to open up your wallet. Wanna hear a good one? In Ohio you can no longer pro rate farm trucks. I had a semi tore apart for 2 years not driveable, when i went to get tags they told me i had to back pay for the years i didnt buy tags.... GTFO. $2100 to get current, on a truck i use 3 times a year. I dove it un tagged until i sold it.
I believe you need an MC # (operating authority) as well as DOT # when operating out of state. Just another expense believe me I know the feeling. Enjoy watching your videos.
Yet another reason why we stay under CDL with our trucks and trailers.
It's definitely a benefit
Man I would love to find a guy like that to talk to once a week and just bounce ideas off of as well. That’s super cool.
Right?!

How are you getting to Springfield in an Hr?! Haha

I don't blame you one bit. It's so much to navigate
This is why I choose to stay under CDL and not cross state lines. Too much red tape and government bureaucracy.
Don't blame ya!

i live in the north suburbs and work in chicago, NO government agency here knows what anyone is doing whatsoever. its insane.

All true
It happens to me the same way! My driver got pulled for speeding. Expired registration 🤦🏿♂️
It's always something! Hard to stay on top of it all.

'Cause of rich men north of Richmond.
I literally listened to this on repeat on my way there, lol
If you earn money, you owe taxes, even if it's obtained illegally.
That's how they got Capone 😳
You're not wrong!
they always want their piece of any pie... even though they forget to represent us.
Yep, tax money on taxed money! That's the game, and we're loosing

Are Maxxd trailers stander rails and are the cans exchangeable with other manufactures?
Interchangeable with about 5 other brands, but not standard rail.
Leave it up to Illinois to screw it up
Absolutely
To tarp your dump tie a rope to the pole use that to pull tarp across bin than just tie it up like a strap in a loop beats walking the line
When I was at UPS they had dual plates on trucks that crossed state lines
Interesting
@@Cris_V_00 ya was based out of Nevada but had routes in California. Could be a California thing but who knows

How much did they charged you if it's ok to know because i think Im gonna go through the same process
In my case, plates are just under $650 a year. 2 years behind...so it was a bummer. But we're up and doing this 100%
Cool men I want to get everything in order to keep hauling thanks for replying we follow you from new mexico I just hope I don't have to go to the capital 😀
Tax the money coming in, Tax the money going out, Tax the money for doing nothing
That's the nutty part
Government craziness and inefficiency. Just be glad you not in California its even more headaches.
Oh I don't envy the Cali life.

Yea, back taxing with no proof of use is so wild to me. The government is quick to charge you to breathe, but very slow to refund you.
