I went to your website and already getting job offers! Great Website!! Keep Trucking and working hard!! Great Information on all your videos.
What kind of trailer do you have ? I’m wondering if I can get leased on with just my truck I don’t have but a 22 foot gooseneck trailer
@@oscarserrato7231 year later and im wondering too! or if any company just needs someone to drive their equip. n truck
What is the webpage i can’t find it
One day we’ll be watching Alex’s videos as he films from his private island. He is a true entrepreneur.
@BigSean Lol
Bunch of haters lol
Most importantly, stay away from any lessor that forces dispatch.
Owner operators must maintain their independence.
Also, once you lease on, you'll be operating under their motor carrier authority. Also, the lessor should be providing liability and cargo insurance.
Look for those which offer rates where the lessor has already factored out their fuel surcharge.
In other words , the rate seen on the load board is the rate you'll earn.
I know I busted your chops hard about the trucker video but I wanted to follow up on that and this vid is perfect for that! I busted your chops on other channels too regarding that video as well. I ain’t gonna lie! You got gumption and a lot sense and apparently some big nuts! I’m sure you’re a good dude and you put a ton of info out there and will continue to do that throughout your career. Just be careful because you are a part of the TRUCKER FAMILY and bashing your family on video is not my nor many others cup of tee. The good thing about American entrepreneurship is you can do what ya want. Your far ahead of many is this biz and you’ll continue to grow but grow smart. That’s all I got and take it for what it’s worth!
Thank you 🙏🏻
Well I've been watching tp for a bit. Alixe you give great info. Thanks for all your help. Almost 3,000 in 5 days. Thanks bro and good talking to you
Thanks fam much appreciate it, really helped to ease my mind that there was a place to put your information for companies to see👌🏽😁
I’ve been watching all your videos I’m a huge fan you break things down and explain very well, hopefully I get my
Foot in the hotshot business soon ☝🏽
Can u make a video about how you leased out ur Mc number? Or the steps you took? Also, really interested to see more winter stuff. Living in ND I’m terrified of driving in the snow. Lol just wanna know how u deal with it. Thanks and keep it up. Words can’t express how much I personally, appreciate you taking the time to do this
Trigger Express llc is taking Lease On Owner Operators 15%/85% Fuel Cards, KT
Great video Alex. Very informative.
Looking into getting into the transportation business. This video is information, however the question I have is when leasing onto a company, are you able to use your truck for personal use when off duty? Would you recommend starting your own LLC or Scorp and having the truck leased to this company? What kind of insurance do you need, just personal insurance for when you are not hauling a load and when you are it will be covered on the company you are leased under? I do appreciate all comments in advance! Keep up the good work sir.
Lease my 200,000k F150! Can tow some furniture...maybe a refrigerator as long as I don't have to move it myself...not keen on being crushed.
As a side note, I'm surprised there aren't Final Mile brokers now. That segment has taken off and is currently run by 3PL's with asset based or dedicated trucks (likely as a service to customer and to ensure trained techs). Could likely save capital by outsourcing that, since everything else is outsourced to ensure capital flexibility and maximum RR.
Hey Alex thanks for another great video and the answers to some of my previous questions. I have a f550 and a trailer already picked out that my currently company is selling me before I quit. I am getting my CDL before I start hotshotting. For lease under option will the companies want GVCR under 26k for non-cdl or both? The truck and trailer is currently rated for up to 31k hauling.
Thanks!
I like your video today you making professional moves that is to be considered in hot shot trucking leasing with a company is so much better than leasing with a broker because company lease with brokers thank you for the information
Thank you for the info
Ask your prospective company if they're mostly contracted or off a load board. Also what insurance terms are.
I have a 20’ tag along trailer with a payload of 11,300 lbs. and a 3/4 ton truck. Would this set up enough to get me going part time? Looking to drive 2-3 days week on short hauls until I can get a bigger rig, leave my current job and go full time.
So what you're saying is, if I want to do this I should just go out get the truck and trailer and get started.
Very informative as usual.
Is it possible to be a part time hot shot say driving just 2 maybe 3 weeks per month? Obviously the pay is less but do firms grade you or help you more based on how many loads you take per month.
I wanna get into hot shot but i dont have the funds to start. Plus i would be new at it. I mean i can pull a trailer but ive never pulled for any companies and dont have the truck to pull goose necks
Hey Alex, thanks for the awesome video! I am looking to get started, but my truck is only a 3/4 ton which won't be great. Do you have recommendations on where I can lease a truck for this industry? How is it going through Enterprise leasing or Ryder?
awesome. thanks for the info.
Hi Alex my name is Efrain P and watch i lot of your videos and i can see you have a lot of experience, now my question is, how can I us a beginner find an insurance company that is wiling to ensure me?
Who is fiscally responsible for the maintenance and repairs ie. (Oil changes, tires, breakdown)of the equipment? Is it the owner/operator or company.
Depends on how the deal is structured
We already have our MC# and DOT#. What is the purpose in leasing under a company?
Hello I'm currently doing single pull RV transport with a 2014 ram 2500 diesel truck. I do have a cdl class a. If I brought a trailer could I get started hotshot hauling? Another question is is how flexible is the schedule? I'm a Pastor and I need to be able to go home when I need to. Is ifta mandatory
I'm doing single pull RV'S at the moment I have a cdl class a. Should I do apportion plates and get a trailer? I have a 2500 ram
Im doing some research for a project. What are some of the biggest operational headaches you guys deal with daily? Ive heard BOL generation, and sending invoices is a headache.
reach out to me to discuss
What is the website? I guess I couldn't hear well enough to find it. Thank you
It’s no longer up
How do you get apportioned plates for the enterprise rentals
Can someone type the TP link, can’t find it. Thanks!
Thanks for the info and the video…….what’s the name of the website?
Thank you
I'm trying to lease on with a company an they try to charge me for registration
I have over 20 years in OTR trucking, Was thinking of getting into Hot shot, What do you think
Probably a stupid question but whats the difference between lease on and dispatch?
I liked the info in this video thanks, what type of insurance do i need to have on my truck and trailer when leasing? Just collision? What do the companies prefer?
Just collision
The company you lease under will provide liability & cargo
@@TowPiglet thank you makes my pre hotshot checklist a little easier
@@TowPiglet just collision, is that "regular insurance" or something I have to specify/add?
How many problems will I run into using a deleted truck
Bad news boys... my bank is forcing me to cease use of my truck for commercial use, if anyone wants to buy my company from me message me(zero violations). 16' ram 5500 and 44ft gooseneck both under 3 yr unlimited mile warranty(any ASE certified shop) If anyone is interested in hottshotting, this is a turn key setup and I'll even support ya until your completely on your own. I have authority, insurance, factoring, load board, accountant, etc. All ready to go.
Is that website still available cuz it’s not loading Ty
Can you get bumper I'll loads un Florida? Would it be worth it to sign up on site. I have 24ft 7ft flatdeck bumper pull trailer. Would this get loads just in florida?
Ok So...I am an Independent Freight Dispatcher. Is it possible for me to Get My own Authority Without actually buying a Truck/Trailer? How would that work for me?
technically yes but why?
Hi i am thinking about getting into hot shot trucking I wonder should I do it now or wait till the ecodomy starts back up?
Hi my is luckner I have a truck 2500 I wanna be a hotshot driver can you help me
Is it possible to start with a 1999 350 dually ,7.3 diesel?
Is it possible to lease under a company if you don’t own a truck and trailer?
What if the company is providing the vehicle. How much per mile is a good pay?
I already have my Mc and DOT number ready, I live in California, can I do a lease owner operator with your company? Please let me know.
I went to the website to look for work and verify email says under construction
Did your driver tell you what I said about the job box yesterday
Good Video
To me this type of work is self-entrapping because you have to layout so much money then hope and pray you get the right combination of loads, you’d think you’d be socking away $1000’s but all you’re really doing is being a pass through, too many costs for low rates.
Chris there are alot more guys out here hotshotting new equipment making good money and living well.
I've read several of ur comments and u clearly are a very negative pessimist.
Is OTR in a sprinter van considered hot shotting?
I don’t understand why u quit
Do you have loads in Florida only on your site and companies?
Can you send that web site to drive for someone like to lease under
HotshotDrivingJobs.com
Does a company charge to lease on
So should I just buy what I need to start? Even though I need authority. So should I buy my equipment then go to your web site?
Great question..!!👂👂
Hey everyone 👋🏻
Seen you today and last week on Fort Hood base. I tend to get good amount of my step deck loads out there. By the time I notice your decals as I’m passing you by coming or going it’s always to late but enjoy the videos and details. I jumped out December with my own MC since oilfield died off and had to close my CNC machine shop temporarily but looking at putting an driver in my big rig and use my f450 for more local loads. I’d rather stay home or local and just spend most time on paperwork and booking drivers loads, don’t see how you do all that and run your truck. Do you let your guys book there own stuff?
Hi my name is David I'm looking for driving under someone I do have my A cdls license just got them 2 weeks ago I'm new but willing to learn it all um hungry so if you can help .any help much appreciate thanks
Do I have to find a company to lease under or can I just find jobs on my own?
Are there any companies that help with the equipment aspects?
What companies find at least company
Love your video. Are you still considering getting your cdl
Nope
is the link not available anymore?
Wtf where can I lease a car I wanna do hot shot I just open LLC in Massachusetts but no truck lmao
Dude slow down. I can barley understand what you're saying..
Know of anyone looking for a CDL Job? Company based on Seattle 50-60 cents a mile. DOE
Can anyone tell me what’s the website?
Is used to be hotshot driving jobs but it’s no longer up
Do you think anybody will hire me on Weather 2008 dodge ram 3500 with a 67
Alex I’m doing my own business what insurance company u recommend for truck and cargo load
I guess no answer from Alex
@@deibedchiva you expect him to answer in 1.5hrs? If it's so important pay the $50 and call him.
Unfortunately, Alex is not doing paid consultations anymore. The best way to reach out to him is to send a message on Instagram.
Ok thanks
Hi there. How's the home time look?
Not good
@@TowPiglet With your knowledge of the northeast region, and if doing hotshot with very little overhead, do you think regional work with being home on weekends is doable? I'm getting ready to retire and looking to do something to supplement my pension.
@@Bryan-li8qi maybe, my question is of your not making that much why even do it
@@TowPiglet simply...i just don't want to sit idle and a desk job is not for me. I love driving and I drove before I got into the corrections field over 20 years ago. Just something I'd like to do, as not much else interests me. I like a challenge, but also value home time at this point in my life. Don't feel like going OTR. I just haven't had too much time to study the current freight market yet to see how things are in my area. Ideally, yes, I'd like to not be out for more than a few days at a time. I understand the market is unpredictable as a whole, especially seasonally. I guess to sum it up, wasn't sure if you were familiar with demand in this region. I've got plenty more research to do before making the leap. Appreciate you taking the time to reply though. I can see that you are a very busy man!! Safe travels and thanks for the content.
30% and they pay fuel or just give a fuel card
Im starting my company soon gonna be up in 6 months or less. Im based in tx if interested let me know
Have you started your company yet?
Call number to Lease Truck but it’s says it no longer in service. Do they have another number I can call

@@TowPiglet thanks
I own a pilot car business. Are there jobs available for pilot cars? Or will there be in the future?
I don’t know of any
Hey tow piglet can you get leased under a company with me just owning a 2500 truck? I have a gooseneck but it’s only a 22 foot lowboy
michael P yeah I’m just wondering if any companies are offering to provide their own trailers. Not selling the trailer cause it’s used on the farm I don’t always need a 40 footer
There are companies out there that will lease you a trailer if they have them available, but you have to look around. My advice would be to look into hotshot RV transport for the first few months, save up some cash and then buy yourself a 40ft deckover.
Alex I need your advice I had a company pick up my sons car going to Indiana they tore the car up over $3000 of damages and they don’t have insurance can you help me what should I do God bless you stay safe
Claim the damage on their insurance
Edit: umm honestly I don’t know, claim on your insurance? But then your rate will go up. Fix it yourself as cheap as possible? Sell the car for scrap? It’s a horrible situation I’m not sure what’s the best thing to do
@@TowPiglet you must not be that good at actually reading the comments.. lol he said they don't have insurance...
Sounds like a Uship nightmare...
Robert B 🤣🤣🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️ you right
Ernie Garcia contact the load board you hired them from and ask them why they let them in without insurance
Alex I have my own business so you should lease onther
I still cant access the FAQ from his website can you really hotshot without usdot n mc# starting until we get some money coming while am starting off.
Until the dot man is at the window and he will b there quickly they love to get you with no numbers it will cost a lot more than just doing it the right way WE PAY TO PLAY IF NOT STAY ON THE PORCH
No. It is illegal.
Hello?
Is your website still working properly I've tried to go to the website and it's giving me a error code. Thank you
Yes it should be working
@@TowPiglet website
Hello brothers I would like to know if I can change the sticker of the trailer from 14000 pounds to 12000 myself or I can not
You can only D-rate a "new" trailer as per DOT @ purchase time. Even though trailer manufacturers will accommodate you D-rating even multiple times, DOT and FMCSA consider it as a fraudulent sticker and will put you OFS and even consificate your trailer
darius lacombe thank
What’s that website with the companies on
my website, check description
Is your company leasing on?
Email sent. Looking forward to hearing from you.
The best way to contact him is on Instagram.
I’ll just lease under TP, question would an F150 with a big Tex 14GN work for lighter work?
No
Get a one ton from Enterprise.
You can use most anything. Finding loads, making money might be a issue. By 14 GN I’m guessing a 14ft GN? Or 14k lb GN? I’m hoping it’s a joke. But people have used half ton, bumper pull trailers to do local bulky, but lite hauls.
Long trips. Your time is the same, fuel usage likely close. You can (almost) NEVER get 3 partials on your trailer.
Larry Thompson a 14GN is the model of the trailer it is available in 20’ and 25’ it’s also a gooseneck
michael P local runs?
What are the Facebook groups names for companies looking to hire Alex? If you could please Sir
Just about any hotshot group, mine is called Hotshot Trucking w/ Tow Piglet
@@TowPiglet k sorry for asking Im just in a really F up situation without a pot to piss in and knocking on deaths door and I hope it comes quickly cus I can't do it any longer
cntsles fabrication call the office in the morning k
@@TowPiglet office?
💯💯💯💯💯
Are you still non cdl? My non cdl driver makes more then cdl.😂 crazy isn’t it.
🤣🤣 if your driver makes 2.2k a week I’ll hop in a hotshot truck
It is all about the hustle.
New MC is not a problem. Maybe it is for you in your situation. You have A LOT (too much) going on. Being on the road and handling the business side of things for yourself and everyone else under you is too much.
FWIW, im putting a driver in my truck, putting my other truck on the road for another driver and leasing on 2 other O/Os. I'll be handling all back office work. I have the work available. Dont have the time to manage it while driving myself.
@@ntsullivan This is honestly a good idea. Either work on your business or in your business, it's extremely difficult to do both.
😎
👍
This dudes always tryna upsale something so cringe bro and acting like he’s helping.. karma
I'd lease under you but I'm still in high school
Dude you're lucky. I don't even live in the USA.
@@jansen7640 I live in Iowa but I love meeting people that live in other countries
@@loganr8184 I live in the Netherlands. I'm 17 and I'm working at a warehouse making some money and gaining experience. When I get my Car license I can start with my truck and trailer license. I hope I will get a permanent Visa in the USA when I have a couple of years of driving experience. I have to get a CDL all over again but it will be worth it all. Almost all US states have a lower cost of living and truckers get paid way more in the USA.
