    Great video, one of the best investments I did for the van was a printer , it help so much with the airport loads .

      When you’re right you’re right. I have one in big blue just didn’t take it with me

    I had an experience nowhere near that bad similar, where I had trouble getting a BOL printed.
    My carrier recommended that I get a printer and keep it in the van. It's on a short of things I want to get but don't have the money for at the moment.

    • @ExpeditingAmerica
      @ExpeditingAmerica  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yeah I shoulda put a footnote that I have a printer. I just left it in big blue and I’m not gonna buy another since I hardly do these trips or have problems but the one I did get did come in handy.
      Gotta love the international flights haha

    Yes, I totally agree with you that it is so dumb to make us leave the airport to go print out paperwork to drive back. When it has happened to me I’ve always asked for a pay raise if they did not inform me that the paperwork needs to be printed out before arriving at shipper.

    Handle that swing from the get go. You’re doing the brokers work. The right answer was to settle their business ave get back to you. If they don’t you put the product in storage for which they’ll be charged. You LET them do this and they’ll continue to do so.

    Did he move on from this business? No video in a month and I went the merch website to buy a shirt and its down. I always felt he has a lot of ambition and idea's to do other things. Just wondering if he moved on from this business.

    Hey new subscriber! Me and a buddy are looking to do this. He would do it full time and me part time with him as a team every other week or so. Could you do a video on what you take with you and how you save money on food? I know eating out and gas station food can add up to be expensive and be really unhealthy for drivers. Thank you and best wishes to ya!!

    So if i was looking into getting a sprinter van and letting someone use it and take a percentage of there profits would it be hard to find someone like you who does long runs all the time and doesn’t need the owner to find jobs for them? Like it would be straight passive income

    • @ExpeditingAmerica
      @ExpeditingAmerica  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You could for sure anything is possible. But The owner was booking the loads and maybe 1 out of 30 people run like I do. I wouldn’t get into the business unless you drive first to learn the game.
