Straight Line Delivery

Straight Line Delivery Straight Line Delivery specializes in flatbed freight specifically focusing on LTL (Less than a truckload) at full truckload prices. I have the answer.

Why is it in Trucking you can take good care of your equipment, work hard throughout the week to keep it loaded and not have any money? The industry is set up for you to fail. The trucking companies and brokers keep the profit while you just get by. This industry is built on a man behind the curtain, Wizard of Oz mentality. Why do Owner Operators in other industries who work all week and take care

of their equipment have a profit at the end of the month? If you had a bulldozer or a backhoe, after working all week you would be able to pay yourself and have a profit. Why is our trade so much different? The answer is simple. The owner of the excavating business works directly for a contractor and gets paid an agreed upon price. No two jobs are the same, so each pays a different amount. He is not locked in to use his equipment for the same amount of money for each job. In trucking not all miles pay the same, so why do companies pay you a flat amount per mile? They must be making what your missing-PROFIT. Some Owner Operators see this as a perk. Guaranteed money per mile, sign on bonuses, company paid plates. Remember someone pays for everything. Nothing is ever free. That money has to come from somewhere, and it comes from your pocket over the course of your entire relationship with that trucking company. They use your profit to give you the “free” stuff. After the plates and bonuses are paid for where does the profit go? Not to you. You’re locked into a set amount per mile. The trucking company has the extra money because the driver never got paid what the loads were worth in the first place. No matter how much you work after maintenance and fuel you don't seem to have a whole lot of money. I have changed all of that by turning the industry upside down. Trucking companies in my position want to keep most of the money and hand you as little as possible but I have found a different way of doing things.
