Running a trucking company is difficult. The trucking industry faces a growing list of regulations although there are not enough resources to support owner-operators and small-fleet owners. Trucking/Logistics, which is a $700 billion dollar industry, is considered the back bone of the U.S. economy.
However each and every year, transportation regulations, rising operational cost, low freight rates, and lack of available support is causing owner-operators and small-fleet owners to fail. The large majority of trucking companies operate 10 trucks or less, however, it seems resources are only offered to larger carriers.

One of the major reasons that owner-operators fail in their first year is their inability to find loads while running a trucking company. Managing the back-office tasks of a trucking carrier is also very time consuming. Keep in mind that only the right dispatch company helps you as a carrier, manage all of these and also help you become more profitable.

If you're an owner-operator who's leased on with a carrier, you've considered the idea of getting your own authority. While there's a lot less financial risk and operational requirements when you're leased on, many drivers want the chance to earn more money and run independently. There are a lot of upfront costs associated with getting your operating authority, not to mention the maze of regulations.
