Sub-Haulers
Gr Trucking | Concrete Recycling | Material Trucking | Sacramento
The freight industry is in dire need of truck drivers and because of that there is no better time to be a sub-hauler. If you are a sub-hauler, freight companies will take your application immediately. But the question is, what benefits do sub-haulers have over company drivers? Today we answer that question for you.
The first benefit is that as a sub-hauler you are considered an independent business owner. The truck you drive is yours. Whether you lease it or purchase it, that truck is yours to keep. Sure, you’ll have to maintain it and pay for it up front but at the end of the day it’s yours and you don’t have to share it with anybody. So, if you take care of it, it could last you your entire career.
A second benefit is that as a sub-hauler you’ll probably never run out of work, especially with the job’s high demand across the country. As mentioned before the industry is struggling right now because it doesn’t have enough drivers. As a sub-hauler you can literally hop from job to job, company to company, as long as you want and the work will be there for you.
Lastly, as a sub-hauler you’ll probably earn more than company drivers. Sub-haulers typically make between 70-80% of the load which is higher than company drivers. This is because, as mentioned before, you are an independent business owner and have more flexibility. If you’re out on the road diligently and pick up every job that comes your way, you could very well make close to six figures. Remember, you’ll be responsible for your own business expenses but expenses are tax-deductible and higher pay upfront is a great benefit.
