      Thank you for subscribing and I am happy to hear you are enjoying the videos. I use a factoring company to get paid. So when my dispatcher books a load I get a BOL at the receiver. When I deliver the load and get the BOL signed, I upload it to my factoring company and they pay me. I pay my dispatch company once a month after the month is over. On the straps, I can’t remember the brand but I purchased all my equipment at Myteeproducts.com
      They have a ton of choices on straps. I mainly use the 4” wide straps.

    Do you suggest getting a dispatcher with a new authority? Also can I get my authority now then wait 6 months to start trucking so I don’t have to worry about the restrictions of a new authority!?

    Great video!!! I have a question. How hard is it to find a dispatcher with new autorithy??.thanks again and keep doing videos.im tired to see those super stars youtubers hotshoters talking but not showing the real job

    • @Mr.AlexKogan
      @Mr.AlexKogan  11 месяцев назад +2

      Thanks man! It’s not hard at all. When you setup your authority you’ll get flooded with a ton of dispatch services calling you and offering their service. As to finding a good one it’s hard to say. I’d be happy to recommend who I use if you message me directly through my Instagram.

    • @Mr.AlexKogan
      @Mr.AlexKogan  10 месяцев назад +1

      I can’t remember exactly but I think a day and a half. I’m usually able to drive a little over 700 miles in the allowed 11 hours driving time.

    Just a word for the wise. Back into trouble, so that you can drive out of trouble. This philosophy has saved my bacon on many occasions. So, in this video, the truck would have been reversed on, so then you could have driven straight off at the delivery point.
    Judging from what you are saying, if you are earning $2 / mile, as a minimum, you are earning money? I am looking at this concept, but, to do things slightly differently.

    • @Mr.AlexKogan
      @Mr.AlexKogan  10 месяцев назад

      Well if you back the truck on to the trailer then you have more wind drag as the back of the truck and can window is flat. As to earning $2 per mile, yes you are making money this way. $2 is the minimum I like to be at but try to be above.
