[@CoffeWithGringo]

As a Class A OTR driver for years. There were several nuggets dropped in this video. Some similarities, and a few differences. Thank you for making this video. Love to see the knowledgeable teaching the seekers. Much respect from Texas.

Me personally, getting a van is not the problem it's the consistent load, guaranteed loads is what I need.

Exactly 😵‍💫

Never really worked in the delivery business but it's always good to know things. Did about 100 Uber trips after my regular job, didn't see any money. Also drove a NYC TLC black car.👍🇺🇸🇨🇺

I never leave comments however for a woman business owner already looking to start off into a cargo van business with my 19-year-old son I was previously in the business office bound before starting my current business. You have explained the process very well a lot of things came back to memory after watching your video very true and honest what you are saying very much appreciated. Good luck with your Business wishing you all the best success.

[@EverythingApax]

There is also the option of driving for a fleet owner before purchasing a van. Good idea if you've never been in the game local or otr.

[@sSnuzzy]

Explain. Btw I watched a few of your vids love the channel, I want to get into the cargo van Owner Op side but I don’t know where to go after I get my van. I want to be independent but I think becoming part of a team that already have experience is a great way to start

Hi This one of rare times I can't hold myself from commenting. Overall, it is a great video. I have watched a lot of videos of Cargo Van business, and this is the best. Very transparent. Some of them will hold very important information. Instead, they throw bait fishing for people to purchase their products, such as startup packages and such. A lot of pros than cons. The only con is the language, very street one. However, that can be justified as you were speaking naturally!! Great job, and may Allah bless you .

[@PrinceCezar27]

Foul language a sign of HIGH intelligence. I bet you didn't learn that in your holy book. I bet. How about just appreciating the information and being thankful that your "Allah" has allowed you such grace.

[@KoroKocho]

It seems like what bothered you is the word Allah. Otherwise, the whole purpose of my comment was to express my appreciation for the information, and the creator loved it.

[@PrinceCezar27]

@KoroKocho naw your smug ass attitude is what bothers me. But if you saying that imaginary character made you like that. Then he bothers me too.

[@zorro2go]

It definitely helped me out. Thank you very much for your honest comments. I wish you the best with your business.

Thanks for the video! Would like to know a few things, if we have our MC running two flatbeds and would like to get a sprinter and to hire a driver.What to do in this case correctly ? 1.The Sprinter doesn't require MC ,but the Insurance is under our MC? 2.How to get the driver as contracor?does he need to open LLC or SP?

[@dggothustle]

From what I know if you/your company provides the equipment, you have to hire the driver as an company employee, But im thinking and don't quote me on this, but if you find a way to rent your van out to a driver as a 1099 contractor there may be a loop hole in a way for that..

Hi, you provided some great info for me as I'm just getting started in the business. Question about the mc and dot number. I was told by others if you're under 10k Gross weight it's not necessary, because if you have it and when you get your log book audit they will deactivate you as won't have one. Thoughts?

[@dggothustle]

Nice! Yeah so its kind of a grey area, You technically only need DOT/MC if you want to book your own loads through shippers and brokers or you can just lease onto a carrier, but when you do get that audit and say Hey my equipment is under 10k pounds you may be good.. Its a real good question..

[@jacksonlee3133]

how do you get started running under a carrier if your renting a sprinter van ? or should I just wait on it until I get my own authority ? hoping by the end of July to have all that completed. running courier and Amazon flex. I have several years of logistics and dispatch experience, but it's been a while. started getting into courier work when my husband got laid off from the union hall for a bit now thinking we'd be able to replace his income if not surpass it doing transport work. I live in NJ so I'm pretty sure we can do regional northeast runs and make it work , there are probably about 8 Amazon ( wanna do box truck relay as well through Amazon and using day and other boards ) warehouses just within 30 mile radius from us, plus a ton of other warehouses.

For the ppl who want to purchase a van and come into this business..what do you recommend? The promaster 1500-3500 doesn’t have much variant between the payload and towing capacities.

@Daniel Fasholz I recommend the Ford transit 250 Mid to high roof, Promasters have a lot of break downs and would spend a lot more time in the shop for sure.
