There was so many things in my last year that just pushed me out of trucking companies. This gives me hope to get back out there. Thanks ❤

It is said that by Law, if the original contract is altered/partial etc, that contract/confirmation is now unlawful. Why don't they/the originators want us to see the original contractual numbers?
@@Eagle-Xpress It's the Law. And the authorities are now requiring them to disclose the original rate confirmation. It's a contract, and it is our business. The Law says it is.

Don't let this guy scare you.. when I got my authority it wasn't hard to be a driver and book my loads.. it's not complicated.. he is trying to scare y'all out of the business. I would love to have less competition but gaslighting and using bs psychological tricks to keep people away . Is just plain dishonest
lol....youre defiantly entitled to your own opinion. But when you have a direct load you dont have time to stop, bid freight, print ppwk, sign brokers agreements, sign rate cons, bill, etc etc. You are welcome to load yourself, I already said some people try and then come under someone else's wing because its not worth it.
Sure it can be done, but is it worth it? That’s the question. Efficiencies can be accomplished through a structured organization/team that make it well worth while to let those other tasks be handled by those who wake up every day to focus on just those tasks.
@eagle-Xpress but like I work right now I’m tired to stay 2 , 3 days waiting for to win a load by my carrier company!!! I don’t think it’s gonna be that Hard to use your MC and loadboard!!!! Because it’s still gonna be once load at time. That mean Bid-win-Paperwork-pickup-delivery-Paperwork-done and start to bid again
Lolll, you will not have to work while driving . You just have to keep posted your Brooker if he not use any App. And you will start negociate for new load after you done
If you want to be the capt of your own ship and run under your own authority, you most definitely need a dot/mc number.. Carrier packets specifically ask for your credentials and if you don't provide that information it will show up as "failed" and you won't get a load.. You can run under someone else's credentials and be a contactor leased on to another company, but until you have your own authority you aren't an "owner operator".. I dont care who says you don't need a dot/mc number if your van gvwr is under 10001 pounds, these companies WILL NOT fuck with you without a dot/mc number... If you don't believe me then you can go try and see for yourself.. JS
I gotta disagree with you about the DOT & MC number. Especially if you’re traveling from state to state. But in some cases you can ride under the dispatching company your hauling for. Most load board companies won’t mess with you without an active DOT & MC number. Last but not least, if you get pulled over by a Dudley do right police officer and/or DOT office can expect to receive multiple fines and possibly points on your driving record. It’s always best to stay within compliance with the motor carrier regulations and laws.
You're welcome to disagree but if you were turly a pro in this business you would know that vehicles under 10k gvw do not need an MC or dot number. If you're planning to load yourself and get access to load boards then yes you do need one but if you're just a driver getting loads from a dispatcher and vehicle is under 10k gvw you do not need anything and no officer or dot inspector etc will do anything to you for that. I've been pulled over plenty of times in various states by state patrol and our vehicles are not under any dot compliance.
Some of this is good info and some of is outright untruth. You will not lose your MC through an audit - simply false, he's just trying to sell you on working for him as the middle man so he gets the profit.
Who told you that you need a "big truck" /"log book truck" 4:09 (26k gvwr) on your MC authority to keep it? You can get an electronic log device ELD, and you are actually required to get one if you do more than 100miles 8x a year.
Not sure where you got that idea from but if your unit it not over 10k gvw you do not need log books for it therefore it's not considered a power unit so you will not keep your MC and DOT number after your first dot audit.
You have to make money and charge cargo van operators please look into it call your state auditor, not the state police state auditor and make sure if you don’t have a commercial license plate and you’re under 10,000 pounds and you don’t have a commercial license or hazmat license then you don’t qualify for that programcheck it out please.
Ive met alot of people with cargo van having there numbers and not having a truck. Idk where this info came from probably outdated? But yeah people with their own numbers and just a single cargo van run less miles and make more money.
That is correct, if youre looking to have an active mc and dot after your audit you do need to have at least 1 power unit, power unit is a truck that holds a log book and is over 10k gvw
I don't understand why they require a cargo van(10k lbs) to run dot/mc numbers and then would penalize you for not having a bigger truck? And if I understand correctly a cargo van requires same insurance as a semi truck?? Seems like they want to keep cargo vans under their thumb but it doesn't make sense
Sorry I didn't see that you had replied. What's confusing with need for dot authority is that I thought I read in the dot requirements that if you haul materials between states you need the authority. I understood that to mean even in a van under 10k gvw. That's where I was getting confused
Hey man thanks for this awesome info! So is there ever a situation where you could rent or work under someone’s MC without carrying your own? I have 2 ford transits
To have access to load boards if you're planning to load yourself you need MC ND dot numbers. But if you sign on with a carrier lease on then you do not and are covered under carriers Umbrella of mc and DOT. But to keep and MC and DOT you need at least one big truck that uses log books.
Hey there, So its clear, if you only have a sprinter van with a mc and a dot #, come audit time you will be deactivated if you do not have a box truck or bigger unit?
So since I don’t need a dot or mc number can I travel across state lines tho. Can someone answer that. Since it’s under 10k pounds.and some of these load boards ask for dot and mc numbers
Yes since ur under 10k gvw u don't need MC and DOT numbers. To have access to load boards you do need MC and DOT numbers. And to have access to good expediting boards you need to have a fleet of vehicles....not just a cargo van. Also to keep an mc and DOT number you need to have at least one power unit.... That's a truck that's over 10l gvw that runs under log books.
Yakima is a horrible place for expedite freight. We always answer the phone. But best way to get answers to your questions is emailing the email address in the description of the video.
It will probably cause high insurance rates and high interest rates if you're going to be financing a vehicle. We try not to work with felon drivers. As aot of times we pick and deliver from places that run drivers backround.
@@Eagle-Xpress I was planning to buy my own vehicle out of pocket. But sounds like my felony will get in my way for the business Thank you for the reply.!
Then yes u do but u will also need at least 1 log book truck to keep your MC and DOT number with the dot. And also to be able to fill out broker packets you need at least 1 power unit which is a truck over 10k gvw.
Hey you're info on MC# for cargo owner operator incorrect. U just need to bring your vehicle info proving that you just have a cargo van atleast in Texas that is the way it is.
Yeah he just lying to get people to sign up for his carrier company. You just have to apply correctly - if you don't have a power unit they will put 0 and you won't have to do all the extra logging because it's not required for vehicles under 26000 lbs
This is a big reason I haven't taken the plunge into the box truck world. When I was working at Harbor Freight Tools, I met many people outfitting their new trucking businesses with tie downs and other tools. Every one of these customers of mine had at least a spouse to run the paper side of the business. I am finding that by cost per cu ft of cargo space, small, pre-owned box trucks are cheaper than Sprinter class vans. Like you point out, they must have DOT and MC numbers. Is it possible to use the DOT and MC numbers of carriers with which owner-operators would lease onto?
Got my Mc and dot, told them what I was doing, no new entrant program and non of what you are saying. Over a year now. Just put 0 in all of the truck categories
to get freight with brokers you cant even sign their online packet if you dont have at least 1 power unit...but you keep doing you. if its sliding and its working for you keep doing it. big brokers we deal with those are the rules...maybe small basement sitting ones dont care but thats the general rule when youre dealing with brokers who move 20+ million dollars worth of expedited freight every year.
@Eagle-Xpress my comment was only about my experience with fmsca and my numbers. Your info seems out of date. Take it as it was given only my experience. As far as your reply about brokers and other stuff in the video, I did not comment on it because it is the same as I have experienced, and therefore, I agree with what you are saying.

Everybody starts at the bottom. It is one of the problems in this industry. Many people think they should or can start at the top.

@@Eagle-Xpress I think the misinformation is how you talked is really broad general terms. While most cargo vans don't need numbers , the ones over 10k do and will need to runs logs.

No its not required. You would only need it if youre going to be loading yourself to have access to load boards. But then if you do obtain a DOT # you are required to have at least 1 power unit, bigger truck with a log book...something thats over 10k gvw
He is lying to you bro, you DO need DOT/MC if you want to use the load boards and you are NOT required to have at least 1 power unit to keep it. This guy is full of crap, just selling his own company.
Not true the new entry program for cargo van operators if you’re operating under 10,000 pounds you do not have to do a DOT physical none of that the new laws for the cargo van operator on the 10,000 pounds look into it look into the new program and when you do it, you file your MMC 150 or something I think that’s what it is and you just say please remove me from the New program and you will be removed. I’m a witness to it. I’ve been audited by the state auditor and you shouldn’t have to go through all of that and I did go through it for my first year now I don’t have to go through it anymore. I have a letter to prove it and ever so he’s telling you some information that’s old today, unless you have hazmat or commercial license and a commercial license plate you do not have to worry about that so look it up. I’m the proof I believe the state auditor knows more than the state police.
If you want access to all the load boards, the requirement for that is at least 1 power unit. One power unit is a log book unit that's over 1pk gvw... Without that and log book you don't get in. Nothing is Old or outdated. It's simple info.
so we need commercial insurance for doing loads with sprinter. how much cargo ins and how much liability insurance we need for doing loads in sprinter ? thanks
I can tell you one thing. I have ten years in trucking and thought of Cargo van but seen guys online say rent a truck from someplace. Well if it was as easy as that then guys with experience would all rent a truck then build your business. I think this man has a great platform for cargo van.
If you're over 1001 pounds, yes, you are required to have an MC, DOT, ELD, and medical card. Then, when you get over 26001, it's another ballgame. Now, you have to add other things to your list.

Same here. I pull over as soon as I complete my delivery. I send in all ppw and billed invoice to customer I’m less than 5 min. I use Quickbooks(self employed).
Hi Andrey. I wish you were taking on van owners. I will contact you again in the spring. Stay successful, and God Bless.
I'm genuinely grateful for this video.
i need to u ship... can you help
Здравствуйте, вы работаете с Страйт траками 26 фут, 12 паллетов, non cdl?
Уже нет. Тяжело контролировать водителя с лог буком, тяжело контролировать или он делает Maintenance вовремя чтобы не ставили out of Service и тому подобное.
@@Eagle-Xpress Спасибо за ответ, больше проблем и расходов там чем денег значит.
Who sets up your packet paperwork with brokers?
I do and my dispatch team does when Im not in the office.
So please correct me if I misunderstood you. We don't need DOT or MC if we are driving sprinter, right?
No its not required. You would only need it if youre going to be loading yourself to have access to load boards. But then if you do obtain a DOT # you are required to have at least 1 power unit, bigger truck with a log book...something thats over 10k gvw
He is lying to you bro, you DO need DOT/MC if you want to use the load boards and you are NOT required to have at least 1 power unit to keep it. This guy is full of crap, just selling his own company.
Good info 👍
Do you have to load or unload your own van?
In some instances yes. Depends on the load.

Not true the new entry program for cargo van operators if you’re operating under 10,000 pounds you do not have to do a DOT physical none of that the new laws for the cargo van operator on the 10,000 pounds look into it look into the new program and when you do it, you file your MMC 150 or something I think that’s what it is and you just say please remove me from the New program and you will be removed. I’m a witness to it. I’ve been audited by the state auditor and you shouldn’t have to go through all of that and I did go through it for my first year now I don’t have to go through it anymore. I have a letter to prove it and ever so he’s telling you some information that’s old today, unless you have hazmat or commercial license and a commercial license plate you do not have to worry about that so look it up. I’m the proof I believe the state auditor knows more than the state police.
If you want access to all the load boards, the requirement for that is at least 1 power unit. One power unit is a log book unit that's over 1pk gvw... Without that and log book you don't get in. Nothing is Old or outdated. It's simple info.
so we need commercial insurance for doing loads with sprinter.
how much cargo ins and how much liability insurance we need for doing loads in sprinter ?
thanks
1 mil liability, 100k cargo and unlimited mileage commercial insurance policy is the bare minimum requirement.
Excellent Video. I’ll be in touch to sign up. Thanks!
Hi my name is David. Is a 2500 Nissan high top van big enough to work under you guys authority?
Nope. Its a short van we dont work with them. Must be an extended van with at least 144" long cargo space length inside. Thats our minimum standard.
I just got my van 3 weeks ago, I have my insurance ready, who wants to hire me?..?

I dot know what you have read, but you are not required to have a dot under 1001 pounds
Correct, thats What I said. If youre under 10,000 gvw you dont need it...if youre over then you do need it.
How do I sign up for
I have the van and insurance how can I sign up with you ?
Email address is in the description of every video. But we only work with extended high roof vans.
Can I start of renting a cargo van from uhaul? If so Is it possible to start off doing my carrier business that way?
We don't work with rental vans....not sure about other companies. We also only with sprinter style high roof extended vans.
I can tell you one thing. I have ten years in trucking and thought of Cargo van but seen guys online say rent a truck from someplace. Well if it was as easy as that then guys with experience would all rent a truck then build your business.
I think this man has a great platform for cargo van.
If you're over 1001 pounds, yes, you are required to have an MC, DOT, ELD, and medical card. Then, when you get over 26001, it's another ballgame. Now, you have to add other things to your list.
correct thats what my video is all about
1,001 or 10,001???

Для работы на Sprinter Van не требуется наличия DOT и MC, правильно? Нужно LLC, правильно?
Correct, but even LLC is not required...its better for the driver to have a business license but not required with our company.
Вы говорили что не набираете водителей, что-то поменялось?@@Eagle-Xpress
If you don’t need a LLC to work with you then how would a driver get paid? 1099?
So for a sprinter van you don’t need a DOT or MC
Nope
@@Eagle-Xpresswhat if you travel across states out of state is that still required?
@@shatteredstiks7392right no one can answer that
