jeff b.

Answer:
Jeff, if you do not know even this most basic of info then you have no business being in business for yourself, which is what it sounds like you are doing.
You own the truck. Correct?
Answer:
You will send your Bill of Lading to the company (Broker) that gave you the load. If you have not done this line of work you should lease to a company like Panther II or Hotshot Express and obtain knowledge. You can do alot of free work if you do not follow protocall. You can not follow it if you do not know it.

Answer:
I've been driving for some time and wouldn't buy a truck right now, big or small. Fuel and insurance are not cheap.
I know a few people that have operated by using load boards. My neighbor is a prime example. Now months after he lost all his trucks and trailers there are still brokerage companies that owe him thousands of dollars. He didn't do it right and didn't have a clue how to operate a truck.
Your first step is to learn the business and then either lease on with a company or find a broker that is legit and will run you steady. Good companies and even more so good brokers are hard to come by. Load boards need to be your last resort.

Answer:
I forsee another failure in the trucking business............
Anybody want to bet if he has ICC authority??? I'll bet he doesn't. I sure wouldn't want to get behind him at a DOT check......
Answer:
yes my own authority dot and all that heres the deal i was thinking about fl60 with sleeper and 22 foot flat bed for all those small loads what do yo think

Answer:
Probably work just fine as long as you know what your doing.
If you don't know how to handle paper work to get paid you might not know exactly what your doing. Using load boards you'll probably go broke.
