Pro tip, Use a sprinter van VIN to get a low insurance quote, then activate/age your Motor Carrier authority for 90 days paying that low premium. Search for that Box truck in the mean time then add it to your insurance. Premium will then rise to cover your Box Truck. At the 90 day mark Brokers will be willing to work with you and you'll make enough dollars 💵 to cover your operating expenses
Thanks Very Much! Insurance is a beast..Im diffiently going for another quote.
Appreciate you dropping those jewels 💪🏿💯‼️
💎 right here. Don't forget to mention you only need 750k coverage to go active for right now anyway. I think they are making changes soon.

@JBTrading I currently have insurance for a box truck but will I be able to scale it down to a Sprinter Van if I want to do what you suggested?
Hat off to Mr. Trapp. He runs his business like a pro period. Many box truck drivers trying to save money by sleeping in their own trucks which is a huge DOT violation especially if a State Trooper ask you for a hotel receipt and you can't provide any. You will be forced to shutdown for 11 hours which will dent your company safety rating. A few more of those, you won't be able to get any loads because every broker will turn you down. Being in compliance with the DOT is the key to your business. One more advice on the top of what Mr. Trapp said is to have a folder in your truck with five clear pocket sleeves carrying the following :
1- A copy for your Authoriy
2- Truck Registration
3- A copy of your Certificate of Insurance
4- Driver Mediical card
5- Bill of Laden
So, if you get pulled over in a wieght station. Trust me, the officer will appreciate you if you hand him/her that folder. My two cents.
That's some jewels right there!!! We appreciate that.
Bill of Lading
@@thisismagacountry1318
Thanks for the correction!
@@omarkarshe3863 shutdown is 10 hrs not 11,so you can reset your clock ,also you can take your 10 hour break at your familys house or friends house nowhere do the rules/laws state you have to provide receipts.
Off duty is off duty. It's none of the officers business where you are off duty.
Man I needed this. I’ve Finally found something I really want to do with my life. I’ve been in sales and a corporate environment for the last 6 years all because society and our school system made me feel like I had to go this route. I’ve been so unhappy and stressed, fighting for pay raises etc. I just truly don’t fit in this kind of environment. But this is it
Wow! Now is the time brother, make the move and don't look back. All forward progress, wealth and ownership!
Appericate that's Mr.Johnson. Anytime I could be and assistance. We are working some things so you guys can stay connect with best practices..
@Humbaba_ FACTS
@@shawnintown how do you go about getting loads? If you talked about it in video, my apologies. I have to watch the video later. Driving now...

Hey, glad its working for you! What company did you start with?
“ when you dont know, just do right “ 🔥

Damn 28 in a month that's good living I should have started years ago honestly, my brother and sister do it and I heard it's so much money in driving box truck but more with CDL 💯
You're right. Sometimes we miss out on things we meant to do earlier, but it's not late, you got time. Lots of opportunities out there! 💪🏿
this video was gold 👌🏾, saves a bunch of time and money, I couldn't find any merch or other means to support either of you guys, but I'm subbed and watching all your vids @Shawn in Town
Let's go!!!!!!! Thank you!
Thank you so much to both of you for taking the time to make this video. I really appreciate the help.
Thank you for seeing the value in the video and soaking up the information!! God bless!
Truck Rental $$$ . Diesel $$ . Weigh - Inspection. Stations . ELD Drive Time Limits . Traffic / Road Conditions / Weather / Insurance / Maintenance / Paperwork / Taxes / Toll Fees Etc ... I do it as a Driver not Owner . I am Single and it's a Lonesome Profession . Park in a well lit area and having some type of Safety Protection is not a bad idea these days .Long Days and Hours . Not 4 everyone .
Good information. Every profession requires $$, especially those that pays well. As long as profits are being made, there's nothing to worry about. The rich doesn't get a free ride to wealth, unless they were born in it.
You rent from Penske and others ?
@@teegrowl5186 I drive , work for Small Co. They started out Renting but now purchased a 2013 Freightliner. 26 ft. 33.000 GVR . Box . Better to Own but the Maintenance $ is now on Owner , plus the usual costs to run .

Diesel mechanic/technician by trade. Just my .02, but I'd get started in an older pre-emission truck. The after treatment system can be VERY costly. There are some great young mechanics out there, but there are also a lot who really don't do well with after treatment issues.
International DT engines are some of the best midrange diesels ever built.
Thank you for the info!!
You asked every single question I wanted to know, appreciate you for that 🤝🏾 subbed for sure

You're welcome!! I hope everything goes well so you both can get some of this money out here. Wishing you both long term success!

Really?! Someone always thinking about what they can get helping others
such a plethura of information and first hand knowledge. you are a gem as i seek to educate myself in this trucking business. thanks
Thank you Shannon! Appreciate you and thanks for tuning in!!
My advice to anybody considering a box truck is to check the load boards because it isn't a lot of freight for box trucks. You can do good around CHRISTMAS but other than I don't think so. Another thing is all markets aren't good for BOX TRUCKS. The east and north coast and CALI are probably good but in TEXAS it's so many BOX TRUCKS you would starve!
Thanks for dropping that info Andre!!
Dope video!!!! Thanks!!!!

I have some questions. .
-Woukd I need a CDL to drive such boxed truck?
-What steps are required to start as fresh?
-Never drove truck in life so do one has to go through a company? If yes then don't they bound you in a contract?
-What are the rental companies one can rent from?
-Doesn't truck rental companies provide insurance by default?
-What are the opportunities in Texas?
If you watched the video, he had given out his information to contact him if you have a few questions like this You can send him the questions on his facebook. Thanks for watching brother!!
@@shawnintown Thanks yes I did watch
@@callisto6213 ... no you dont need cdl for box trucks bro 24 to 26ft...
@@callisto6213 You live in Texas, thats like the mother load of all opportunities. Semi's, big rigs, hot shot, box trucks and almost every single major carrier(swift, Schneider, FedEx etc) has contracts in TX.
Rental company doesnt cover 100k cargo. You need private insurance and most dont insure beginner drivers
Great interviewer! Good luck my trucking friend.
Absolutely!
Very knowledgeable thank you, I been in business since 2017 but I’m restarting my business now
Great time to hit the restart button, high season all the way till year end!
I own a trucking company and you can make that much gross going over the road.. and half of that being local.. expenses are high so you'll net about half of whatever you gross.. either way it's good.
That's real talk!
How much can you make going OTR as a company driver in your area?
Each one teach one. Thank you brothers.
One love!
Shawn your content is amazing
Hey Alexander!! I appreciate hearing that. Sounds new every-time. Thank you and thanks for tuning in!!
Great content!! 💯 %! Thank you!
Absolutely!! Thanks Luis!!!
I love good black people 😂 Thanks guys I needed this vid 🎉 Thanks for the upload
You're welcome!
Hey guys..well I'm about to take out a rental from Penske and all I need is a dispatcher that I can count on..I'm driving locally in Texas if u guys have any dispatchers in mind plz send them
Ok
DOT number is free, MC number is $300
Do you have to have a truck already to get your dot number
@@russelpasague6841 no but you'll need insurance to activate your MC in 27-30 days of you submitting your application. You can't have insurance on something you don't have. So when you apply you should be ready to jump in something within weeks to get your policy wrote around day 21 of you applying.
@@MAXED-TRUCKING Do you need the vehicle in your business name and do you need Million Dollar policy?
@@YesYourHighness I'm not sure if it HAS to be in the business, but I highly suggest it for liability and tax purposes. You won't need the million dollar coverage until your ready to book loads. So get the bare minimum (750k) until you're ready to run loads and your MC goes active then call back and add the desired coverage.
This video was so helpful!!!! Thank you so much!
You're welcome! Thank you for tuning in!!
Do I have to have a minimum year age on my vehicle to get loads or find work?? Will I not get loads or app work if my van/truck/sprinter is too old?
Thanks really like your channel, appreciate it !
You can reach out to him. He gave his information
Thanks for the info, but what Im hearing is I need about $20k to start. Ive never had $20k in my life. Im really looking for something that I can get started with very low start up cost. What about renting something like a Uhaul? Im wondering if there are ways to get into this with LOW start up money?
A UHaul doesn't have a lift gate, can't be used.
this is very good details information. thank you so much.
You're welcome. Glad it was helpful! Thanks for tuning in Sheila!!
Thanks 🙏 so much guys! keep me in your prayers, bout to buy my own truck and start running....Good lord willing..
God bless you brother! Will do!
Love this video … definitely something needed for beginners if I wasn’t a dispatcher before this would definitely be a must watch but I am still learning a lot from this video! Thank you for this video 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Amazing! Thank you for watching as well!!!
@WaydaMinJade Your Currently a Dispatcher? Question? Is IT HARD? An Do You LIKE IT? Was Thinking to try the Course for the Dispatcher VS Being a Driver! Hell..You Guy's seem to NOT be able to get as Many Loads without a Dispatcher in Play somehow so their WORTH to the Transportation Industry isn't going ANYWHERE!!! Nice!
Let's connect. Drop me a dm on IG. I may have a business proposal.
@@shawnintown sure . I will connect soon. I’m currently on vacation right now.
@@getatum1914 I wouldn’t say it is hard but definitely is challenging. I prefer being a driver over dispatch because that works for me . Dispatching is convenient when you have kids & other businesses. But as a former dispatcher I rather drive because you will find drivers that wants to pay you under 10% … they don’t understand the back office work & expenses you have to cover as being a dispatcher… on top of negotiating the best rates so their overhead is covered before paying me … you’ll find pros & cons but choose what works for you.
Also guys it is very important to do you own due diligence in your research and not believe everything you here without doing so. I'm not sure if this brother Jervin Trapp is nervous. But he definitely is not correct when he said you have to pay $300.00 for the DOT #. The DOT # is completely FREE. You only pay the $300.00 for your MC#.
Salute to both Black brothers..💯💯💯🦾🦾🦾
Appreciate you as well brother!! 🙏🏾
very informative, I listened and took notes for a friend who's looking into this business, I think he really needs to listen to this also, picked up some valuable info
We're definitely trying to get the information out there to empower others. Thank you for tuning in!
Trying to start a business here in PA but nervous to take those first steps.
Many different areas of business you can get into, that's why I have this channel. Maybe you can get into Over the road trucking with a CDL.
Have a minimum of 20k to start with to be safe
You ask great questions Shawn
Thank you Eric!
I am a non cdl driver. Type C license.
What do I need to drive a box truck? What kind of paperwork do I need?
Very inspiring. Thanks 👍
Yw!!
You made my day. Was searching for the best information to start that business.
I'm in NYC, would you consider I move down south because of the insurance.?
NYC, Jersey and Cali are 3 rough States. Even though the insurance may be higher, so will the pay rate. I would suggest making that move f you're at the point of your life where you just have to make a chess move concerning your finances. Also, thanks for the compliment. Well received!
@@shawnintown Thank you my brother 🤜🤛 blessings 🙏 .
Hi Shawn in Town, new subscriber today, how are y'all coping with fuel prices🤔 esp diesel😓😬😨
Good morning and thank you for subbing!! Every driver who's on the road should be adding fuel cost to their negotiations with brokers.
@@shawnintown Thanks
@@dbaobob8556 💪🏿💯
Im in California. Omg, they make it impossible to start up a business. You need so much licensing. For the license, for example, MCP “motor carrier permit”
(Not mc) you need insurance just to get this permit to deliver freight in California. Then you have to wait 30-90 days for them to approve you. So basically, you need a truck to get insurance. So you’ll have a truck and insurance and you cant work for 30-90 days unless you have your mc to do interstate. Also a lot of insurance companies dont insure start ups. They want you to have a year authority. I found one. Its like 17k a year, 3700 down and i have a perfect driving record, crazy.
Thank you for the information. Man I've been hearing they move differently out in Cali. Just didn't know it was this hard. Sheesh!!
Move to Texas like your major California corporations are doing.
Dot is free. Mc is 300. In California you need a Ca number then you need to apply for mcp which is 350
Thank you.
Thanks, good information❤️
You're welcome!
GAME!!...these are the things the others are not sharing!
Very good information,thanks
You're welcome!
Thanks for sharing bro
You're welcome!! 🙏🏾
I am insured with progressive. What do you think of them, and which insurance company you recommend .
Progressive is the best!!
i knew this transportation stuff had money in it
when i was looking into becoming an owner operator and a company was offering me 250k a year
i seen some opportunities to make 700 a day with the box truck
im thinking of tapping into it so i can flucuate between this and my investments
Good stuff! Since there's been a shortage of Truck Drivers, this area of business has been a compromise for many companies, and it's a business that's scalable.
@@shawnintown jeez 🔥🔥🔥
@@shawnintown I went searching jus found something paying up to 23 thousand a week in my region nearby
@@SoulPapiii Sheesh!!
@@SoulPapiii what did you look for? Is that if you have multiple trucks with them?
I'm so confused... first video I watched from you was interviewing the Medical Courier. Is this still similar? I don't remember him talking about DOT or MCA or anything like that. Is this video more geared towards OTR & long distance hauls? I want to haul within my state of Virginia and I'm just looking for info to get started.
Shouldn't be any confusion. The medical courier video clearly is about delivering with a van or Sprinter, and this video is about delivering with a Box Truck OTR.
@@shawnintown Is there also a weight difference? Like I'm not trying to get a regular van. I'm thinking I should go straight for a sprinter or a box truck just to have the flexibility to haul whatever is available if it's slow. I've read that as long as I keep it under 10k lbs I should be good.
If I get a box truck and not doing OTR I wouldn't need DOT/MCA right?
@@TheAbrahamHD Sorry I just saw your reply brother. I have lots of comments coming in on my Channel, trying to help everyone. So I would suggest getting a Sprinter, that's starting g off between a box truck and a van, and you'll be able to get great loads. Just not big capacityoafs like a box truck, and not small capacity loads like an SUV or a Van. Yes, staybunder 10k lbs and you won't need a dot. Thing is, you'd be better off getting the DOT and MC number for around $300, because you can go otr whenever you feel and make more money.
@@shawnintown No problem, and thank you for getting back to me! I'll be looking to get that then, thanks again!
@@TheAbrahamHD 💯

@@KingsDrivewayBuilds Wow!! Will check it out!
Where did you get your truck from?. Stuck here with no truck.
Good info man !
Appreciate it! Thanks for watching!
got a good question... do you need a laptop computer to go with you or do you use your phone to book another load once you complete delivering a previous load? how does that work?? and because your out and about your going to need a computer wifi stick for your laptop right?? or do you guys use your phone to do all the booking of the loads?
He brings his Tablet or uses his phobe sometimes. Doesn't need any wifi stick, 5G works well, or create a hotspot with your phone when using a laptop or tablet.
Go with Tablet.. Just as good as phone. Or laptop. Shawn correct! I have Samsung connected to VERIZON or T-mobile good too. Load boards are all in App form as well.
@@j.trapptrapp741 whats the apps names to download to do this?
It would be useful to know what size box truck is best to get if you are starting off. Also as a beginer is it best to own, rent, lease, etc?
A 26 Foot box truck is a good size. Also, in the video he made it clear that he was leasing. If you lease, you can always turn in the truck if you realize later if the business isn't something you wanna pursue anymore. Learn the business, grow, then buy.
Can you operate under someone else’s MC, DOT, & Authority while ur waiting on yours to become active?
Yes.
What earnings can I expect in non peak season? In a major city like Atlanta and should I start with Amazon relay as a new owner operator?
Not sure. He gave his info, maybe you can connect with him there. God bless!
If you’re using a cargo van can you use those load boards you were talking about or is it just for Box trucks!!!
Thanks David!
@@shawnintown you didn’t answer my question thou
& it’s just gonna continue to thrive & grow
This is high season as well. Tap in

Thanks for sharing!
Can’t wait to get started
Let's get it!!
Hello guys. I'm based out of New Jersey & I'm looking into getting into the trucking industry & have a few questions. All information would be greatly appreciated.
1) On initial start up costs, aside from:
a) creating LLC
b) obtaining a Dot/MC#
c) obtaining a Boc-3 #,
d) obtaining UCR
e) dot decals [do i need if I'm renting?]
f) ELD/Logbook what other costs are there?
g) truck
h) insurance
2) Why would an owner or owner/operator choose to pay a dispatcher to find loads, when they could sign up to any or all of the load boards and do it themselves?
3) Why would an owner or owner/operator hire a factoring company.
Pros & cons, please.
4) If I wanted to solely be an owner, a) how much is expected to pay a driver, b) how/where would I find a dependable & honest driver, c) what must I look out for when I hire a driver.
Once again, thanks to all who contribute to building wealth. Thanks!
You're gonna have to reach out to him personally and ask those questions brother. In the video, he did give his contacts on how to reach him.
Great info, thank you
Very welcome
Box trucks are scarce here in PA it’s crazy
