You need a company who has contracts! Not running off Central Disp exclusively! These 9 cars can gross a half million per year. As an owner op OTR you could take home a clean 250k up to 350k depending on your expenses and contracts and if you have a good tax accountant!
Shoot I have no clue what you guys make out that way but I have heard it’s hard out there. Luckily for me I’m pretty centered between probably 8-12 yards that are all within 300miles of me. And I have 3 that are within 150 miles of me
What are your thoughts on centralize dispatch and new rules that we cant use personal conveyance? Im a urs driver for almost 17 years and im given some of the lowest paid loads ive seen in years since central dispatching started.
To be honest I haven’t liked it but I also say give everything 6 months before passing final judgment. As for the pc thing I was told that’s a terminal decision not from the top down. But if ppl were abusing it then the top would stop person by person but if everyone at a terminal got it taken away that was a decision made be the terminal manager. I also don’t pc hardly ever unless I’m on my 34 which happens like once or twice a year that I’ll stay out for it. I’m normally home.
How much do you average a week as a company driver ? Also how much can I average a month as an owner operator ? Which location is best to work at ? I live near Detroit, MI
My average is gonna be around 2000-2500 weekly. As for what you can make per month really depends on how hard you run and for what yard your hired out of won’t matter much because your an owner op. Your home terminal is only gonna matter on your first load out on the week because you can run anywhere else and grab your next load. But I’ll say you should be able to make around 40 a month at pretty much any yard as an oo. With that said we have a guy at West Point that’s an oo that doesn’t ever go home and he’s pulling 60k months for the last few
@@CarcarrierTv as an owner operator, do you recommended I join united road or West Point ? I can’t find West Point in google what’s their exact company name ?
@islamelfarra4541 😂😂😂 no West Point is the United road terminal in signed on with I’m sorry if that was confusing. I always think United is a great company to work for or sign on with otherwise I wouldn’t still be working here. Also if you do come over on the app please put my name Matt wihlen or UA-cam guy or car carrier TV on as your referral they way I get credit for you joining
You got a terminal/yard here in Houston? I applied with another company but I think they are low balling me with $70k gross starting pay. I've not accepted an offer yet. I put in an application.
Hey love the videos, I’m planning on learning car hauling with united I was just wondering could you tell me what kind of trucks do the company drivers get make and model
Honestly I don’t know that would be something to talk to a recruiter about. But to be honest if you own the truck they can’t tell you where or what you have to haul it’s your truck your fuel. But I’ll say you should be able to pretty easily hit 8-10k a week
If your leasing on what yard your assigned to won’t matter all that much that only matters for your out going load after that you can run whatever United road high paying freight you want. As a leased oo your in charge of your ship if a company tries to force you to run a load you don’t want to that makes you a company driver no longer a 1099.
Then you have weeks like mine only grossing 900 because of breakdowns and when I was able to deliver my third load. The bright side I got to work 7 days in a row. 🤬 I work out of nor cal united road
I’m having one of those weeks this well. Monday Knox sensor Tuesday was a new tire for a worn out tire which I knew I was replacing so no biggie. But I got to the yard to load blew the Hydrolic line on the back deck of the trailer 5.5 hours for the Hydrolic guy to come out and fix it. It’s Saturday and I’m just now grabbing my second turn for the week lol.
@@CarcarrierTv I’m looking to head to United road next month. I’m an hour from the Greer yard. I’ve talked to a couple drivers recently and have watched you videos. Definitely debating the move. Those drivers say the Greer yard is a gold mine
@roydorshimer4920 yes Greer is a gray yard the only down side is it’s otr so you’ll be out at least 2 weeks a turn. So if your ok with that then they have amazing work
Shoot me another email I probably missed it. I get a hundred or so emails a day on this UA-cam email account. I try to check it a few times a day but sometimes things just slip past me. I’m sorry about that.

Hey bro how much experience did you have when you applied?
Where do you get them hooks from where ur jackets r in the cab?
Those are just the metal hooks from broken bungee cords and I just hook them over the plastic for the roof
This may be a weird question but have you driven a manual car or truck before if so what speed did you drive?
Yes I’ve driven lots of manual cars trucks and semi’s. And the speed limit
