Great job. Very informative and you was a natural. Just simply relax and enjoy the moment while you're recording

[@truckingempire563]

Man i appreciate that! I just need to slow down and say um a little bit less. It takes a lot for me to get in front of the camera tbh bro. Stay blessed🙏🏽

Video coming tomorrow morning, LIVE DISPATCHING for a new authority!! 🚨 thanks to everyone for the continued support it means the world!

[@driveatlanta]

My business got approved for a budget rental but they said something about 150 miles daily,did they tell you that as Well? Is there a way around it if so

[@truckingempire563]

@@driveatlanta yes but certain locations allow you to do more. My location said the same thing but that is because they have too

Started watching your videos today, going to waste this rainy day trying to catch up from the beginning!

[@truckingempire563]

Appreciate the support💯

[@spencerblankenship1732]

You’re welcome, been researching if starting your own box truck company would be manageable and profitable and your videos started showing up

[@frankiedee2024]

Good stuff indeed bro! I am getting my DOT Compliance Binder in order as we speak. All i am waiting on is insurance documents and the certificate from the FMCSA. Oh i think i need IFTA in the binder since I'll run tractor-trailers..

[@91dope31]

What do you need to have to be compliant? Thanks !

[@truckingempire563]

Been meaning to ask this for a while.. are you needing a dispatcher by chance?

[@thisismagacountry1318]

@@truckingempire563 I might. Will you have Non-CDL runs for sprinter vans? I'm going to hustle for 4 to 6 months to earn enough for a 26' box truck sleeper. Then use my CDL class A to run hazmat loads. I'd prefer running Laredo loads to Florida and the southeastern states along I-10 and I-20 unless there's better money running to California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona and NM.

[@Lhansmeyer33]

This is nicer than any budget truck I have ever got! Haha

[@cic-jakevanddalgeemyers.2739]

Keep grinding man..

[@brothacarlosofficial8633]

That means I’m doing alright then I actually been OTR for a month FH and a half already and it feels good to know that I been doing it the same exact thing

[@Kobe8DaGreat24]

I Thought you couldn't sleep in the truck period. 🥴 I'm bout to go check and if you can sheesh gone be easy for me I lived in my car for a year before I had everything I needed to bounce back.

[@truckingempire563]

Technically your not supposed to but ive been inspected twice with my pillows and sheets in the truck and never a word said. Ive also talked to a dot person and they said long as you stay within dot regulation ur good. Oh and only sleep at pilots

[@ajworld8626]

@@truckingempire563 why only sleep at pilots is it any gas stations private property or I’m wrong like I know rest areas is public

[@thisismagacountry1318]

@@ajworld8626 Rest areas can be hella sketchy with random inspections by state troopers or even violence from randos. Most truck stops have security, but after a meal and a shower you still want to lock up and go to sleep. Everyone starts back up just before sunrise. And this sleeping arrangement isn't DOT compliant so look for a box truck sleeper if you're serious about the business.

[@EHSOFTAMPALLC]

Love these videos man

[@Cliff_Henderson]

What about other essentials like clothes, food and hygiene products

[@Dezzyboii]

What did you use for your window covers and where can I buy it?

[@thisismagacountry1318]

@@truckingempire563 There are temperature ratings for sleeping bags. You want one rated below freezing and another lighter one for temps from 60 to 30. Take one with you according to the forecasts.

[@imback1time]

Great tips. I've been box trucking since February, I ran into a few problems but all turns into great lessons. Work has been great. Looking forward to purchasing a 2nd truck mid Dec. Normally I stay in hotel/motel that I have commercial accounts with. I spend about $2200 a month on hotels, I would love to cut it down 50% or more. Where can I get that sun blocker from? Thanks

[@unhippy1]

Get something with a 30ft box like a Isuzu FVR or FTR and then get this guy to build you a 48" sleeper like this one kzbin.info/www/bejne/oGisq3-jq5umn6M .......you'd still have 26' of cargo space and somewhere to sleep.

[@imback1time]

Great. I'm in Philly they're 15mins from me. Thanks👍🏾

[@marcogee5642]

how much do you make in profit on average per week, been driving box truck for two years for a company and thinking about becoming an owner operator.
