Life of an owner operator! Keep on truckin brother! Our fleet is up to 9 vans and 10 employees. Started in 2018 by myself and we have 7-9 vans moving Monday-Friday. Bigger js not always better. Comes with more problems and headaches as well. There May come a time where I scale back down just to a few good workers and myself on the road. Time will tell. Drive safe out there!
Thank you for taking some time to give us some feedback! As I have been scaling up a bit, I’ve noticed my headaches are also getting bigger so I def understand. But wow man 9 vans! That’s inspiring. You’ve come a long way bother!

Peace & thanks! We(the ppl) appreciate both yall channels! I need some help, I have a 99 dodge 1500 cargo van, & I was wondering if yall( especially Tony, because i live in jc) can help me with some contracts I possibly can get, being that my van is a quarter of century? old...
Thank you tony for the motivation, i started with a ebike doing delivery, got me a maZda3 sedan and now im getting a cx5 to do rideshare and with other app like curri and roadie.
Love the "I'm a lemonade making master" vibe. That's how I was raised and it had served me well. And I love cargo vans. It's a pretty awesome tool for the person with ingenuity.
I love the van cargo business. The driving & travel part is fun, and you are making money as well. We don't have this but I will soon start the office shuttle business IA.
The thing with these low roof cargo vans is that the gas mileage is better than the sprinter and the older cargo vans. If you drive a lot, it can make a difference of a couple hundred dollars a months
That’s the perfect cargo because you fit lots of things there and if worse comes to worse you can’t work lose your apartment you can converter and live there
It depends on the type of load. My routes aren’t palletized cause it just wouldn’t make sense plus I gotta touch freight. But most loads do come palletized. So it just depends on what you’re hauling.
@Tony.Ruiz08 funny , just as you were commenting on the truck.drivers' great skills. Ha ha . Just unlucky I guess. Part of the risk they have to take performing their role.
completely understand why more room and shorter clearance on cargo van will impact your business if you deliver for money where “more “space means more packages more $$$. But these are also purchased by tradesmen like Hvac, Electricians, plumbers, painters etc. And when working in high rise buildings shorter roof is gold when trying ti squeeze your work van in a tiny garage. They come in handy my friend !
Correct. You’re 100% correct. But I am in the transportation industry, so the more space the better. I understand other vans serve different purposes but if you want more money in this type of business, the bigger the better.
4:26 i am glad i live a state where you don't half to have back and front plates. Indiana on basic car, van or pick up truck you only need a back plate.
I would like to retire from my current career at age 51 (in 4 years when I lock in my pension), and buy one of these badboys! I can't collect my pension until I'm 60, but I could hit the road. I love driving long trips listening to music and podcasts. I think I would do it long enough to pay for a total conversion into a stealth camper van as I get closer to age 60.
Thanks Tony, just subscribed to your channel I like that you keep it short and to the point. Question, do you think this business model is possible doing it in different states. Like 3-6 months in one place and 3-6 months in another?
Thank you & welcome to the channel! You definitely can if you go work with apps. You can just turn them on whenever or wherever and make some money. There are plenty is apps you can download to move freight. In order to scale up you’ll need to be in one place tho and hopefully wherever the demand for this type of business is stronger. But it’s definitely possible.
Hey, I would like to do this, it's my first time seeing this kid of job, I think I'll love it too much. What are all the requirements, Tony?? Do you have a video where you show all of this to start doing this job it looks like a fany job. Thanks a lot for showing this video. I LOVED IT 😍 🥰 ♥️ ❤️ 💗 💙 😍 🥰 ♥️ ❤️ 💗 💙 😍 🥰 ♥️.
Hello brother 👋 I just saw this video and I love how you are doing this. Also how do you connect with business partners to run this business around the local city?
Just networking, asking around, putting myself out there. Finding contracts on indeed, applying, calling and selling my services. Any way you can bro! Glad you enjoyed the video!
Can't find a job after I came back to the States from DR. Applied for work for a dozen logistic companies. If I can't get an opportunity to make a living. Then I will make own opportunities myself. This might be the path here hermano.
Hey to all HUSTLERS! I am from Pittsburgh PA! Thinking to get a cargo van! But I don’t have any experience and don’t know how to find loads! Please any advice any websites or ideas how to find a daily loads or roads please! Thanks in advance to everyone 🙏🏻
You can find contracts online or on indeed that are in your area. Also, there are gig apps you can download and start making money. Find local loadboards or shippers. It’s all about doing some local research and finding the demand for it. Location is important.
@@Tony.Ruiz08Great content! I have 2 semi trucks but I’m considering to sell one and buy a cargo van. I live in the Dallas area but I’m not sure how to find contracts. What do you recommend? Thanks!
I use my Promaster 3500 as a mobile OF studio. Merchants Auto remarkets cargo vans for their fleet customers and has around 600 to choose from for delivery anywhere in the US. The less desirable cargo vans are sent to auction.
I wish you would post a lot more than you do, watching you has encouraged me to get into this business. I have registered my business and I am in the process of acquiring a vehicle based on your advices. Thanks a lot, may God bless you, in Jesus name I pray, amen 🙏
Definitely will try to stay more consistent with the videos. I’m happy Ive motivated you 💪 and congrats on all the steps you’ve taken. Before you purchase a vehicle, make sure you do some research in the area you live in. Try to find contracts before hand, or brokers/dispatchers etc. you want to make sure the demand is there. Some vehicles are better than others depending where you are. Don’t rush things. All the knowledge you need is free and is out there. Stay blessed brother 💪
I'm still not really clear on the work he's doing. I understand moving the mattresses but not what his route before was. Maybe I need to check out some of the other videos on this channel.
I have a cargo van business & I have daily contracts which me and my driver take care of. I like to show ways to make money using a cargo van, the mattress part is just a small move I did, meaning that when you have a cargo van there’s always ways to make money! Stay bless!
I got in a car accident 3 weeks ago. So now idk my chances of becoming a Courier. I really wanted to do courier and make a career out of it. But my driving record is hindering me from being a courier. Is there any other good alternative options for me?
Hey Tony, just came across your channel, as I'm looking for a side gig to supplement my salary, what make, year, and model do you recommend to start a cargo van business? And also what type of type of delivery business? Thank you for your time.
You can always choose from a ton of apps that are available to sign up and make money whenever you feel like it. Or you can try to find a contract that will fit your regular working schedule.
@@FitnessLitnessTV For sure bro. There’s an app I use to find vans, it’s called Autolist. Set it to find ford cargo vans and you can see what’s around you and at which dealership.
Hey quick question that I can't seem to get answered... If I get a Sprinter Van rental from like Penske, how can I get loads? Do I need my own commercial insurance, or what are the requirements for me to get started right away ?
I did small moves in my old Sprinter 2001 LWB High Roof that i used as a camper as well. Don't necessarily recommend that but it was ok. I think the large van got me a lot more work. Just big enough to do quite large items . Ie Ping Pong tables , large fridges that you don't need to lay down. I could even move whole living room couches and chairs . 💺
Just bought a 2010 ford transit connect. Any words of advice or encouragement would be greatly appreciated. I’m looking to get into finding contract routes myself
Where are you located? Have you tried looking for routes on Indeed? Or other job searching websites? Using key words like: “Courier” “Independent contractor cargo van” “owner operator cargo van” & everything in between. Look into some gig apps also. Curri & task-rabbit are popular in my area but it might be different for you. I know a few guys working from a few at the same time. Just gotta find the demand.
You got this bro, start hitting up your local logistics companies. It would be even better if you have a website offering contracting services. Try to get free web hosting. Take pictures of your van, submit them to your website, work on your about us and pictures, pictures, pictures.
I love those vans too! Very spacious. I do hear things about the transmission giving out tho. Parts are probably more accessible over there. And ford parts are more accessible here.

I prefer the pro master ( overhere called fiat ducato ) .
I love those vans too! Very spacious. I do hear things about the transmission giving out tho. Parts are probably more accessible over there. And ford parts are more accessible here.
Explain how you get the contracts
On indeed
Bro what part of Jersey is this dealership at? I like those high roof sprinter's myself
Route 46 on little ferry NJ has a bunch of cargo van dealers! It’s just up to you and what you’re looking for!

How much you pay to your driver? by the hour or a % of your contract?
