You can use the internet to your advantage, but trucking is not going to good right now. We are trying to get out of it. The rates of loads has dropped so much that the pay is barley enough to pay for fuel, let alone license plates, quarterly taxes, IFTA taxes, heavy highway use tax, repairs ect. The expenses out Weigh the profit,especially if you have a truck payment on top of that.. We gross about 110,000 a year but after fuel, and all expenses, we only make around 10 to15,000 a year. If you want to jump in to it, C.H. Robinson, get loaded.com, and expedite freight are all good ways to get loads. WE use ch robinson and they do their billing every week, but the checks don't usually come for 2 week or more, some times, it has taken a month to get paid.
