The beauty of being a sub-hauler is that you have the option of being your own boss. You have the ability to choose to work for a company but can easily switch to being your own boss if you want to. Today we are going to go over why you might want to consider sub-hauling and the benefits that come with this option.
Sub-haulers are entrepreneurs at heart. They have to be in order to keep the income flowing. Choosing this option means that you will have to learn everything about trucking. You will be responsible for things like keeping your tractor, books, and business in order as well as for building relationships with vendors and potential clients. Sub-haulers do not have the security of a steady paycheck so hustling in all aspects of this job is standard.
Sub-haulers are also less committed to the clients they work with. For example, if you do not like a particular job, route, or contractor you are typically free to move on to working somewhere else once the job is complete. Hoping from one job to the next is actually normal and a privilege that sub-haulers have.
Last but not least sub-hauling is great because you can take as much time off as you need to rest and recoup. Hauling big truck loads all over the place can be tiring. One of the turn offs in the trucking industry is that truckers never get enough time off. If you sub-haul, this problem is eliminated right off the bat. Sub-haulers have flexible schedules that allow them to spend their leisure time with family or pursing other hobbies. Sub-haulers can have a great work-life balance that other company drivers might not have.
