Surprise high paying bonus load for the day | cargo van business

Today, I picked up an early morning load from my courier company going from San Antonio to Austin. I also received a surprise load from an app on the way back home. Right place at the right time, Let's get it, Let's Go.

Yo CJ, being home for your family every night is something your kids won't forget as they get older and look back.💯

[@BigCJCargoVan]

I think about that all the time. Everything I do is for them. Appreciate you highlighting that 👍🏾

[@CantrellMosley1]

Man you DO NOT have to explain all that to folks. That’s annoying that you even have to and a waste of your time to tell what works for you. Laugh and block them 💪🏾💪🏾 keep doing what works for you. Family time is a lot more important.

[@angelaarcher3675]

Thinking of doing what you do. I drove OTR for 11 years. Loved it. Stopped for health reasons. But anyone bragging about their money as an otr driver in resent years, is telling a lie. The industry has gotten so bad. If they are making it, they never get home. Keep up the good work 🙏👍

[@BigCJCargoVan]

Appreciate your honesty. Some folks have pride issues and think otr is the king of the crop. I have a great deal of respect for everyone that does it, but money can be made both local or otr. My overhead is extremely low, and because of my family obligations, I'm committed to local work. I hope you are doing better and wish you the best whatever you decide to do 👍🏾

[@stephenyarmak7891]

Amen Big CJ. Family man powerful and definitely important.. big congratulations.. remember you don't have to show or tell ppl anything about your finances bcuz they are not paying your bills. Happy for you in your Journey Big CJ. Keep. Telling your story

Damn homie 300 Miles Not local at all 😅

[@BigCJCargoVan]

Nice, way to do it.....getting consistent work is half the battle.

[@EverythingApax]

All y'all better quit bashing otr!!! Them there's fighting words!! 🤣🤣 I do and love otr, but it's not the right fit for everyone. As long as the individual is happy with the money and the lifestyle of otr or local/regional deliveries, then you're doing the best option. Whether otr or local/regional is best is relative. When you were trying to figure out where to drop them signs, I'm like, "Dude! She said the business center where people pay bills!" Lol. Good stuff. 🚛〰️〰️〰️

[@BigCJCargoVan]

Nothing but respect to OTR hustlers. Better you than me because I hate it....lol..... No idea where the business center was, I can't stand when they talk as if I know where everything is. Store was huge, dropoff wasn't even where she said. I've learned through experience, ask where to go, if you follow customers direction, 9 out of 10 times you will get lost

[@EverythingApax]

@@BigCJCargoVan absolutely! I'm glad you know what you do and don't like. That's a huge advantage. Many can't figure it out in time. It's cool to see you enjoying what you do. Representing our industry in a positive manner! 🤜🏼🤛🏼

[@DRIVINGWITHTY]

I dislike when people yell Otr As a X Otr driver. Both Cdl a class and box truck Otr experience. Yes he making 8,000 a month but best to believe he running for low rates. Different gas prices high low. Maintenance. Oooo and let’s not forget about that good ole Otr insurance rates. Keep doing you big dog

[@BigCJCargoVan]

Appreciate that, coming from an ex otr driver, that's real talk. I know enough otr drivers to know it's tough either way, local, regional or otr, they are all challenging. That million dollar policy is my biggest turn-off. Appreciate the info 👍🏾

[@jmoreno2228]

8k a month minus van payment ,minus 1500 to 1800 insurance , minus gas and expenses at the end of the day he might bring home 3 o 4k after taxes and there away from family . You make good money, are home everyday are with you're wife and kids when it matters you went the right route man

[@BigCJCargoVan]

Appreciate that, yea some people just like bragging and probably lying. Appreciate your support 👍🏾

[@aldaigre7594]

Just saw your video….Good stuff! Priorities and focus on point. Questions for you, Did you have to get a DOT # out there in Texas to operate your business ? What’s your insurance like, high premiums? Commercial? 300k coverage or the 1M?

[@BigCJCargoVan]

No DOT needed for what I am doing. Insurance was 300k when I had my authority. I was paying about $545 per month. I let my authority go and have states minimum required commercial insurance. I pay $300 per month now.

[@ricoingram2288]

Have you considered working directly for a shipper or receiver? Keep doing your thing bro?

[@BigCJCargoVan]

Absolutely, consistently working on that. Everyone is money hungry so trying to find the right shipper is very difficult. Constant hustle, hopefully something hits.

[@jefferyneal9618]

Try driving in Florida..straight crazy bro.

[@BigCJCargoVan]

Oh I know, been there a few times.

[@letsbuildafinancialfoundat9999]

Hey CJ how or where could I begin looking into no forced dispatch opportunities? That's right up my alley.

[@BigCJCargoVan]

Most dispatching companies are no forced dispatch. Most people search indeed.com or websites like that.

[@ianscreamsvideo]

You don't want to sleep in your van tucked nicely up against a crate in the sweltering heat or freezing cold...and pee in a bucket? You're missing out man. You might want to pad the ratchet where it contacts the pallets. At the edge, and where the metal touches. They can damage stuff. The pressure. Cut right through boxes, crack tile, damage wood finish etc. little padding like a blanket or cardboard you can really crank em down but allows for flex as you drive and stuff shifts a bit.

[@BigCJCargoVan]

Exactly, I'd rather make a little less money and sleep in my bed every night. Appreciate the advice, always good info 👍🏾

[@edmondbaugh6456]

Definitely learning from your testimony CJ. I'm just starting my business with pretty much your blueprint . Which app was it you requested more pay(I forgot why)and they paid more from your request?

I did not retire, I did 5 years active duty in the Army. I get benefits from injuries I suffered while serving in the Iraq war. I recommend the Air Force. I think that's the best branch.

I don't like the idea of renting, but do what's best for you. If you rent, make sure you can stay super busy or you'll be wasting money. A lot of gig apps don't allow rentals, so do your research
