Thank you for sharing your journey! I’m in the process of starting my cargo van business and looking for my first cargo van. Your story and positivity is inspiring and I pray many blessings for your continued success.
Thank you Stevan, that means a lot. Continue to do your research and best of luck to you. You know where to find me if you have any future questions 💪 bless up
Damn every time I c ur videos, I want a cargo van like Yesterday,coño bro .. u have me more motivated … I’m tired of working for someone else and that’s been my motivation ..I did the logistics for a year and a half ,enough experience lol now with u in my life I get more knowledge 😂 tú necesitas ya hacer un millionario por el buen corazón que tienes… buenos videos y informaciones … bendiciones para ti y tu familia
I just want to say congratulations bro 💯 I have been watching your videos and getting more and more motivated to jump out the window… I have my L.L.C. and my EIN But I’m in NewOrleans and something just holding me back from buying me a van and going for it SMH
Great story man thanks for all the info and congrats on all your goals . hard work pays off. I’ve been having fun on my Ford transit connect XLT every single day, man. And every day searching for that medical carrier contract don’t forget about me. I’m here in New Jersey man. Blessings.
@@Tony.Ruiz08 Hi Tony, no luck any contracts I’m still in with all the gigs app that I can use to make some cash during the week but I’m still searching till I get something 🙏🫡thanks for reaching out..Take care
You such a real gentleman, very good advice this is what exactly I was thinking to start business first get employed to Lear then do business. You explain very well, thanks for sharing your experiences. Good luck man
That’s awesome! I’m happy for you. With a cargo van you have the option to get local contracts as myself, go OTR (over the road) that’s when you take loads to further states. Or you can do gig apps. Gig apps can be used as part time since you only work when you turn them on. Understand your local demand for this type of business and do some research before starting something. You wanna make sure the demand for this type of business is there!
@@Tony.Ruiz08 Hi can I ask you to make a video about equipment to get or consider for a van when starting out? I would like to know so as to not waste money in buying things that may not be necessary.
What’s up again bro! Great Video and motivation. Your story is def one to be recorded! I’m glad I found your channel. Still looking for my first contract here in Houston been doing gig apps. Wish me luck homie! 🤝🔥
You gotta do what you gotta do. Whatever it’s best for you specially if you live in the city. I have a small driveway I can fit my van though, if not I’d probably pay for parking. Around $150 a month so it’s not super crazy.
So could you explain to me how contracting works? I’m 19 and I have a passed down cargo van from my dad and I need a contractor to successfully start my business.
I got my LLC, vans, drivers and insurance. Then I offer (apply) my transportation services to a company or a carrier that needs my transportation services
God bless you Tony I really enjoy your videos I have a quick question. I was wondering what is the best cargo van to go with. I have a family of 5, and I would like something that I can move them around and do my business what would you recommend?
My my brother and Father have done expedite delivery with their sprinters for over a decade… Honestly all I see is a failing market. If you make under $1/mile you’re in poverty and eventually youI’ll have a major repair that will bankrupt you. I like that you do these routes locally, so that even if your vehicle goes down, you’re still in a reasonable location to find a repair shop. The expedite business is hard man, I don’t recommend it to anyone. I hope you find success in your local market and don’t ever go over-the-road to expedite!! 💪
@@Tony.Ruiz08 It's all good! And out of all that time, my Dad has been dedicated to just 1 dispatcher. They do it all, but they don't specialize in cargo van, so I realize that my Dad has missed out on consistent work by limiting himself to just 1 dispatch. Lesson learned. Don't be exclusive with any one dispatcher unless they can supply you with enough work weekly. The reason he is exclusive is because he gets a discount on commercial insurance. But, if they don't supply enough work, then it's not even worth it. Finding local gigs does sound interesting. Hope things are going well for you!
Hey Tony I got a transit 250 for a chair massage business that didn't go as planned. How can I get started doing what you are doing? Any advice? God bless you hermano
Sorry to hear that brother. It all depends on what you want to do. You can do local contracts as myself. Work from apps or go OTR (over the road) that’s when you take loads far away into other states. Since I’m a father I went the local route so do your research and figure out which one you wanna do. If it’s apps, download and sign up for them and start taking loads and making money. If you want contracts, check out the demand in your area as well as the requirements. Indeed is a great place for it. I have a video on how to find local work in your area as well if you’re interested to watch it and get more insight.
@@ToddRogers00 I know what they asked me Toddy, but my driver asked for his privacy and so it will be. I gave him a fair answer that is substantially more helpful.
You made it happen!! I respect the mentality. Salute to your wife and her friends for believing in you. I hope you gave them a little extra dollars when you repaid them. 🫡

Hmm hired me on the weekend I’m trying to learn the business I’m a trucker
AMAZING. Do you offer 1 on 1 coaching?
I am near North Brunswick
Nice!!
If you have a number of vans, where do you store them?
Renting storage space in the beginning stages seems kind of expensive?
You gotta do what you gotta do. Whatever it’s best for you specially if you live in the city. I have a small driveway I can fit my van though, if not I’d probably pay for parking. Around $150 a month so it’s not super crazy.

That’s a tough one. I really like the transits. The only thing is they don’t come with foldable chairs.
Did you need a dot and mc for your cargo van ? I love in south jersey but I’m thinking about transporting in NJ, PA, and DE so not to far.
Not if you’re only traveling within your Tri-state.
@@dlt215 Thank you 🙏
hey i can clean your engine with dry ice blasting also the piston head
I’m down!

Wow that’s amazing man! From the other side of the world! Thank you watching and showing support.
When you were still an employee did you just use apps for extra work once you bought your first van?
Correct. Or just haul things for people & make some money. I was in beast mode
How much was your new cargo van? Is it new or used?
27k used.
Ok. Do you remember how many miles it had?

You can do 60/40 or pay hourly. However both of you agree on & you can pay weekly or bi weekly or per job.
