You tell us your preferred lanes, equipment, and schedule. Our system scans thousands of loads across major load boards and brokerages, finds the highest-paying options for your routes, and books them for you. You get notified with your next load, drive, upload your POD in the app, and we handle invoicing. That's it. ### What do I need to get started? An active MC authority, your own truck, and a trailer. Don't have an MC yet? We'll help you get one. No trailer? We'll start by finding Power Only loads while you figure that out. The signup takes about 5 minutes — just submit your MC Letter, Certificate of Insurance, and a W9. ### How quickly can I start getting loads? Most carriers start receiving load matches within 24–48 hours of completing onboarding. Once your paperwork is approved, our team sets up your profile and you'll get your first matches right away. ### What kind of loads are available? All major types — Dry Van, Flatbed, Step Deck, Reefer, Power Only, Box Truck, Hot Shot, Sprinter Van, and Cargo Van. We pull from multiple load boards and direct broker relationships, so you see freight that isn't always available on a single platform. ### I'm a new carrier — will this work for me? Yes, and this is where TruxxAI really helps. New carriers often struggle to get quality loads because brokers don't know them yet. We introduce you to our broker network, help you build a track record, and make sure you're booking loads from day one — not sitting around waiting. ### How much does TruxxAI cost? 5% per load, and that's it. No signup fees, no monthly subscription, no hidden charges. You only pay when you're moving freight and earning money. The 5% covers everything: load matching, route planning, 24/7 dispatch support, factoring coordination, compliance help, and the app. ### Do you work with my factoring company? Yes. If you already have a factoring company, we integrate with them directly — you upload your proof of delivery in the app and we submit it automatically. No more chasing paperwork or waiting on payments. ### Can I talk to a real person? Always. You get a dedicated dispatcher you can call or chat with 24/7. Not a bot, not a call center — a real person who knows your business, your lanes, and your preferences. ## Get started - [Apply in 5 Minutes](https://truxx.ai/start) - [Pricing](https://truxx.ai/pricing) - [About Truxx.AI](https://truxx.ai/about) - Contact: contact@truxx.ai --- # Dispatching shouldn't cost truckers their time and their money. Source: https://truxx.ai/about > That's why we built TruxxAI — an AI-powered platform that gives owner-operators the tools and support they need to earn more and stress less. ## Our Mission Independent truckers are the backbone of American logistics — but most dispatch services charge too much and deliver too little. We started TruxxAI to change that. Give every owner-operator and small fleet access to the same freight quality, route optimization, and back-office support that large carriers take for granted — at a price that makes sense. ## What We Believe - **Drivers First.** Every owner-operator deserves access to the same freight quality as large fleets. We build for the people behind the wheel. - **Humans + AI.** Real dispatchers backed by smart technology beats either one alone. You get a personal team and a platform that learns your preferences. - **No Hidden Costs.** Technology should reduce costs, not add another subscription. One rate, everything included — that's it. - **Earn Their Trust.** We help new carriers build credibility with brokers and give established carriers access to better freight. Reputation matters. - **Keep Improving.** Our AI gets smarter with every load. We ship updates weekly and listen to driver feedback daily. - **Fewer Empty Miles.** Optimized routes mean less fuel burned and more time at home. Better for business, better for the planet. ## Products - **TMS** — internal trucking management system used privately by Truxx.AI fleets (not a self-serve public product). - **TruxxAI Carrier mobile app** — primary driver-facing surface for finding loads, managing trips, and submitting documents. - **Capacity marketplace** ([capacity.truxx.ai](https://capacity.truxx.ai)) — brokers view and book Truxx.AI carrier capacity. - **Free public tools** at https://truxx.ai/tools ## Contact - Email: contact@truxx.ai - Get started: https://truxx.ai/start --- # Get Started with Truxx.AI Source: https://truxx.ai/start > Onboard your fleet to Truxx.AI in under 10 minutes.

Your workflow. — TruxxAI for Freight Brokers Source: https://truxx.ai/for-brokers > Send loads from your TMS, by API, email, or CSV — our platform matches them against live, GPS-tracked trucks and quotes come back through the same channel. No new portal to learn. ## At a glance 680+ active carriers · 47,000+ loads dispatched · 49 states covered · 24/7 live ops team ## Skip the post-and-pray cycle What changes when a load goes to a dispatched network instead of a public board. | | Posting to a load board | Sending it to TruxxAI | |---|---|---| | Who hauls it | An unknown carrier who called first | A vetted driver in our managed network | | Finding the truck | Post, then wait by the phone | Matched against live GPS positions | | Equipment range | FTL-first, thin everywhere else | Vans, straight trucks, and teams on top of FTL | | Tracking | Check calls and guesswork | GPS location and status updates, pushed to you | | Paperwork | You chase the POD for days | Captured in-app, processed automatically | | Double-brokering risk | Always possible | Your load is never re-posted | ## Send loads the way you already work Every channel is two-way: loads come in, quotes and updates go back out the same door. Pick one or use them all. - **TMS, API & CSV.** Connect your TMS, post loads to our API, or upload a CSV of your load list — whatever format your freight lives in. Quotes, status updates, and documents flow back the same way. - **Email.** Send load offers to our dispatch inbox exactly like you do today. AI reads and structures every email in seconds, and our quote lands back in the same thread. - **Live Capacity.** Browse available trucks on a live map — filter by origin, radius, pickup date, and trailer type — and submit an offer on a specific unit at capacity.truxx.ai. - **Straight to Ops.** Prefer a phone call or a direct email thread? Our operations team works your freight the old-fashioned way, backed by the same matching engine. ## From load to covered 1. **Send Us a Load.** Through your TMS, our API, an email, or a phone call — whatever your team already uses. No onboarding project, no new logins. 2. **We Match and Dispatch.** Our engine scores the load against live truck locations, equipment, availability, and deadhead, and our dispatchers put a vetted driver on it. 3. **You Get It All Back.** Quote first, then tracking, status updates, and PODs — delivered through the same channel the load came in on. ## The tech behind every quote We built dispatch software for our own fleet operations first. Brokers get the same operating layer pointed at their freight. - **AI-Parsed Intake.** Load emails are read, structured, and matched automatically in seconds — your offer never sits in an inbox waiting for a human to re-type it. - **Live, GPS-Tracked Capacity.** Every truck in the network reports real-time location, equipment, and availability — so a quote reflects a real unit, not a guess. - **Deadhead-Aware Matching.** The engine scores every load against nearby trucks by distance, equipment fit, and availability windows to find the truck that can actually run it. - **Automated Document Flow.** Drivers upload PODs and BOLs in the app; processing is automated so paperwork reaches you without a chase. ## Cargo vans to 53-foot dry vans Full truckload and expedited freight through one dispatched network — including the van and straight-truck coverage most capacity networks can't offer. - **Cargo Van** (1–2 pallets, up to 3,000 lbs). Small expedited freight, moved fast — the network's home turf. - **Sprinter Van** (2–3 pallets, up to 3,500 lbs). Time-critical shipments with team options for nonstop, long-haul runs. - **Box Truck** (6–12 pallets, up to 12,500 lbs). Straight trucks for expedited and LTL-sized freight. - **Semi — Dry Van** (26 pallets, up to 45,000 lbs). Full truckload coverage through our dispatched carrier network. Team drivers available on expedited units for round-the-clock transit. ## Trust and risk reduction Brokers get burned by ghost trucks, re-brokered loads, and paperwork that never shows up. Our model is designed against all three. - **One Accountable Counterparty.** Your load is matched to a specific truck and dispatched by our own operations team. You always know who's hauling your freight — and who to call. - **Vetted Drivers, Managed Fleet.** Drivers are onboarded, vetted, insured, and dispatched inside our platform — not strangers picked off a load board. - **Eyes on Every Load.** GPS tracking and status updates from pickup to delivery, with a 24/7 ops team behind them — real people, not a ticket queue. - **Clean Paperwork, Every Time.** PODs and BOLs are captured in the driver app and processed automatically, so invoicing never stalls on a missing document. ## Frequently asked questions ### How do I send TruxxAI a load? However you already work: connect through your TMS or our API, email load offers to our dispatch inbox, upload a CSV of your loads, or call the ops team directly. There's no required software or signup on your side — the first load can move the same day you reach out. ### Do I need to use a portal or new software? No. Every channel is two-way — if you send a load by email, the quote comes back in the same thread; if you post via API, the response is programmatic. You can also browse available trucks and submit offers at capacity.truxx.ai. A dedicated broker portal is on our roadmap, but you'll never need it to work with us. ### What equipment do you cover? The full range: semis and dry vans for full truckload, plus cargo vans, sprinter vans, and box trucks — with team drivers available — for expedited freight. Coverage spans 49 states. ### How fast do quotes come back? Load offers are parsed and matched against live truck locations automatically, so our dispatchers start from a shortlist instead of a cold search. You'll hear back quickly with a real truck behind the number — not a placeholder quote. ### Who is actually hauling my freight? A vetted driver in our managed network, matched to your load by equipment, location, and availability, and dispatched by our own team. Your freight isn't re-posted to a load board, and tracking, updates, and documents all flow back through us. ### How do tracking and paperwork work? Trucks report GPS location in real time, our ops team pushes status updates through your preferred channel, and drivers submit PODs and BOLs in the app the moment they deliver — processed automatically and sent your way. ## Move a load with us Tell us about your freight and lanes. Our ops team will reach out and set up whichever channel fits your workflow — TMS, API, CSV, or plain old email. - Submit a load / talk to ops: https://truxx.ai/for-brokers#contact - View live capacity: https://capacity.truxx.ai - Email: contact@truxx.ai --- # When it has to move today. — Same-Day & Urgent Freight for Shippers Source: https://truxx.ai/for-shippers > Same-day and urgent freight coverage for shippers — for when your regular carriers are tapped out and the load still has to ship. Tell our ops team what needs to move and when, and we put a real, GPS-tracked truck on it. ## At a glance 680+ active carriers · 47,000+ loads dispatched · 49 states covered · 24/7 live ops team ## When to call us We're not a general freight platform. We're who you call when a shipment is urgent, last-minute, or needs a truck your usual carriers can't turn around fast. - **Freight that has to move today.** Same-day and time-critical shipments where the truck needs to roll now — not tomorrow morning. Tell us the pickup window and where it's going. - **Overflow when your carriers are covered up.** When your regular carriers are tapped out or a lane goes tight, we add capacity from our dispatched network so the load still ships on time. - **Vehicles that are hard to source fast.** Cargo vans, sprinter vans, and box trucks for expedited and LTL-sized freight — the equipment most networks can't turn around on short notice. - **Full truckload through the same network.** Need a semi or a 53-foot dry van instead? The same dispatched carrier network covers full truckload, so one call handles vans to semis. ## Cargo vans to 53-foot dry vans Expedited and full-truckload freight through one dispatched network — including the van and straight-truck coverage most carriers can't source in a hurry. - **Cargo Van** (1–2 pallets, up to 3,000 lbs). Small, urgent shipments moved direct and fast. - **Sprinter Van** (2–3 pallets, up to 3,500 lbs). Time-critical freight, with team drivers for nonstop runs. - **Box Truck** (6–12 pallets, up to 12,500 lbs). Straight trucks for expedited and LTL-sized loads. - **Semi — Dry Van** (26 pallets, up to 45,000 lbs). Full truckload when the whole shipment ships at once. Team drivers available on expedited units for round-the-clock transit. ## Know where your freight is, start to finish Every urgent load runs on the same operating layer we built for our own fleet — so you're never left guessing where the truck is. - **GPS-tracked from pickup to delivery.** Every truck reports real-time location, so you can watch the shipment move instead of making check calls. - **A 24/7 ops team, not a ticket queue.** Real dispatchers push status updates and pick up when something changes — day, night, or weekend. - **PODs without the chase.** Drivers capture the proof of delivery in the app the moment they unload, and it comes straight back to you. ## Frequently asked questions ### How fast can you move a same-day load? It depends on where the freight is, where it's going, and the equipment it needs — but because loads are matched against live GPS truck positions, our ops team starts from the closest available units instead of a cold search. Send us the pickup location, destination, and time window and we'll tell you what's actually possible. ### What equipment can you get? Cargo vans, sprinter vans, and box trucks for expedited and LTL-sized freight — with team drivers available for nonstop runs — plus semis and 53-foot dry vans for full truckload. Coverage spans 49 states. ### How do I get a quote? There's no self-serve online quoting and no shipper portal. Tell our ops team what needs to move and when — through the form on this page or by email — and they come back with a real truck and a price, not an automated estimate. ### Can you cover overflow when my carriers are tapped out? Yes — that's a big part of what we do. When your regular carriers can't cover a lane or a load lands last-minute, we add capacity from our dispatched network so the shipment still moves on time. ### Who actually hauls my freight? A vetted driver in our managed network, matched to your load by equipment, location, and availability, and dispatched by our own team. Tracking, status updates, and PODs all flow back through us. ## Get a truck moving Tell our ops team what needs to move, where it's going, and when it has to be there. We'll come back with a real, GPS-tracked truck. There is no shipper portal, no self-serve online quote, and no marketplace — the way in is a direct conversation with the ops team. - Contact ops: https://truxx.ai/for-shippers#contact - Email: contact@truxx.ai --- # One Simple Rate. Everything Included. Source: https://truxx.ai/pricing > Traditional dispatchers charge 5–10% and you still do half the work. With TruxxAI, 5% per load covers AI load matching, route planning, 24/7 support, factoring, and compliance — all in one platform. ## The rate **5%** per load. No hidden fees, all-inclusive support and features designed for your success. 5% per load covers AI load matching, route planning, 24/7 support, factoring, and compliance — all in one platform. No signup fees, no monthly subscription, no hidden charges. ## What's included in the 5% rate - Smart Load Matching & Route Planning - Automated Factoring & Invoicing - Exclusive Freight Opportunities with Our Partners - Automated Available Capacity Sharing with Brokers - Customer Portal with Business Insights Dashboards - Dedicated Around-the-Clock Support - Help with Insurance, Safety & IFTA filing ## Truxx.AI vs traditional dispatch service Traditional dispatch services typically charge 5–10% per load AND require you to do significant work yourself. The Truxx.AI 5% rate includes every item in the list above; traditional dispatch services typically include none of them. ## Pricing FAQ ### How much does Truxx.AI dispatch cost? 5% per load, deducted at settlement. No signup fees, no monthly subscription, and no per-seat charges. On a $2,500 load, that's $125 — and the 5% covers load matching, route planning, 24/7 dispatch support, factoring coordination, compliance help, and the carrier app. ### Is there a monthly fee or subscription? No. Truxx.AI uses a pure performance model: you pay 5% only on loads you actually move. If you don't haul a load in a given month, you don't owe anything. There is no minimum spend, no contract length, and no cancellation fee. ### Are there hidden fees on top of the 5%? No. The 5% per-load rate includes everything Truxx.AI does for you — load matching across major boards and brokerages, rate negotiation, route planning, 24/7 dispatcher access, broker setup paperwork, factoring submission, and the carrier app. The only outside cost is your own factoring company fee if you use one (typically 1.5–3%). ### How does Truxx.AI pricing compare to a traditional dispatcher? Traditional independent dispatchers charge 5–10% per load and usually only handle load booking — you still chase paperwork, factoring submissions, and broker setup yourself. Truxx.AI charges 5% and includes all of that, plus 24/7 support and an AI load-matching engine that compares offers across multiple boards instead of one dispatcher's contact list. ### When does Truxx.AI take its 5%? At settlement, after the load is delivered and the broker pays. If a broker short-pays or refuses to pay, you don't owe Truxx.AI a fee on the unpaid portion. You only pay on revenue you actually receive. ### Do I need to sign a long-term contract? No. Truxx.AI is month-to-month and you can stop using the service at any time with no penalty or fee. Pricing is set up so it's only worth your while if the service is earning you more than it costs — which keeps the incentive on us, not on locking you in. ### Does Truxx.AI charge extra for factoring or insurance help? No. Help filing IFTA, setting up factoring, brokering insurance quotes, and managing safety/compliance paperwork is included in the 5%. The only outside fees you'll see are from third parties (your factoring company, your insurance provider, your fuel card vendor) — Truxx.AI does not mark those up. ### Is there a free trial? There's no free trial in the typical SaaS sense because there's no recurring fee to trial. You sign up, we onboard you in 24–48 hours, and you only pay 5% on loads we actually book and you actually deliver. If you don't take a load, you pay nothing. ## Pay nothing until you're earning. No setup fees, no monthly minimums. You only pay when you move freight.

That splits into roughly $0.21–$0.39/mile in variable costs (fuel, maintenance, tires) and $0.12–$0.23/mile in fixed costs (insurance, van payment, permits) at 7,000 monthly miles. Fuel is the largest variable line at about $0.17/mile, assuming 21 mpg and gasoline at $3.64/gallon. Figures are per total mile driven, loaded and empty, and exclude the owner's own pay. ## At a glance | Metric | Value | | --- | --- | | Total operating CPM | $0.33–$0.62/mi | | Variable costs | $0.21–$0.39/mi | | Fixed costs | $0.12–$0.23/mi | | Typical monthly miles | 7,000 | | Typical fuel efficiency | 21 mpg | | Typical fuel price | $3.64/gal | | GVWR range | 6,000 - 9,500 lbs | ## Variable costs ($0.21–$0.39/mi) - **Fuel** — $0.13–$0.22/mi. 18–24 mpg working, gasoline at $3.10–$4.00/gal (EIA, 2026). - **Maintenance & repair** — $0.07–$0.15/mi. Oil, brakes, wear items out of warranty. No commercial survey covers this class — scaled from consumer data. - **Tires** — $0.01–$0.02/mi. Four tires at $110–$130 installed, roughly 50k-mile tread life. ## Fixed costs ($0.12–$0.23/mi) - **Insurance** — $333–$935/mo. Liability, cargo, and occupational accident. $1M CSL is a broker requirement, not statutory, under 10,001 lbs. - **Van payment or lease** — $200–$550/mo. Used only — the compact commercial van is discontinued new. ~$23.6k average used, financed over 60 months. - **Permits, registration, admin** — $83–$545/mo. Under 10,001 lbs means no IFTA, IRP, HVUT, ELD or drug consortium. Mostly load board and bookkeeping. ## How to calculate your cargo van cost per mile 1. **Add up monthly fixed costs.** Sum van payment, insurance, permits, parking, phone, and any other fixed monthly outflows tied to the van. 2. **Calculate variable cost per mile.** Divide your fuel price per gallon by your MPG to get fuel cost per mile, then add maintenance ($0.07–$0.15/mi) and tires (about $0.01/mi). 3. **Divide fixed costs by miles driven.** Take total monthly fixed cost ÷ total monthly miles to get fixed cost per mile (typically $0.12–$0.23 at 7,000 miles). 4. **Add variable + fixed for true CPM.** Your operating CPM = variable cost per mile + fixed cost per mile. Add your target salary per mile on top to get your minimum break-even rate per mile. ## Frequently asked questions ### What is the average cost per mile for a cargo van? Cargo van operating cost per mile averages $0.33–$0.62 in 2026, centering near $0.45, split into about $0.21–$0.39 in variable costs (fuel, maintenance, tires) and $0.12–$0.23 in fixed costs (insurance, payment, permits) at typical 7,000 monthly miles. That is cost per total mile before the owner's own pay. ### What is a good break-even rate for cargo van loads? Operating cost runs $0.33–$0.62 per total mile before your own pay. What you need to charge depends on the pay you want and your deadhead: at $5,000/month over 7,000 total miles, add about $0.71/mile, which puts break-even near $1.05–$1.35 per total mile — or roughly $1.45–$1.85 per loaded mile once 25–30% empty miles are accounted for. Always compare a quoted rate against your loaded-mile figure, never the total-mile one. ### What is the biggest expense for a cargo van operator? Fuel is the largest single line at about $0.17/mile (21 mpg, $3.64/gal gasoline). Insurance is the largest fixed line at $333–$935/month, roughly $0.05–$0.13/mile at 7,000 monthly miles. Variable costs as a group ($0.21–$0.39/mi) exceed fixed costs ($0.12–$0.23/mi) for this class. ### How do I lower my cargo van cost per mile? Three highest-leverage moves: (1) raise utilization above 7,000 monthly miles to spread fixed costs, (2) requalify insurance annually once you have a clean MVR, (3) cut deadhead — at 28% empty miles you are paying to move the van more than a quarter of the time. ### How does cargo van CPM compare to a Sprinter or box truck? Cargo vans are the cheapest to operate at $0.33–$0.62/mile. Sprinter vans run $0.48–$0.88/mile (more weight, more compliance). Box trucks run $0.80–$1.40/mile (higher fuel burn, mandatory DOT authority). All figures are per total mile, excluding the owner's pay. ## Related calculators - [Cargo Van CPM](https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator/cargo-van) - [Sprinter Van CPM](https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator/sprinter) - [Box Truck CPM](https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator/box-truck) - [Semi Truck CPM](https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator/semi) - [W-2 vs 1099 Trucking Comparator](https://truxx.ai/tools/w2-vs-1099-trucking) --- This page is published by Truxx.AI, an AI-powered trucking dispatch platform.

That breaks into about $0.32–$0.59/mile in variable costs (fuel at 18 mpg, maintenance, tires) and $0.16–$0.29/mile in fixed costs (insurance, van payment, DOT compliance) at 9,000 monthly miles. Sprinters carry more compliance overhead than cargo vans because most setups exceed 10,001 lbs GVWR. Figures are per total mile driven and exclude the owner's own pay. ## At a glance | Metric | Value | | --- | --- | | Total operating CPM | $0.48–$0.88/mi | | Variable costs | $0.32–$0.59/mi | | Fixed costs | $0.16–$0.29/mi | | Typical monthly miles | 9,000 | | Typical fuel efficiency | 18 mpg | | Typical fuel price | $4.61/gal | | GVWR range | 8,500 - 14,000 lbs | ## Variable costs ($0.32–$0.59/mi) - **Fuel** — $0.18–$0.34/mi. 15–21 mpg working, diesel at $3.70–$5.15/gal (EIA, 2026). Vans over 8,500 lbs GVWR carry no EPA rating — this is owner-logged data. - **Maintenance & repair** — $0.10–$0.22/mi. Diesel service intervals run costly; the Mercedes prepaid plan alone is about $0.10/mi for scheduled work only. - **Tires** — $0.01–$0.04/mi. Four at $90–$230 installed over 35–70k miles. Dual-rear 3500 runs six. ## Fixed costs ($0.16–$0.29/mi) - **Insurance** — $433–$1,335/mo. Liability, $100k cargo, physical damage, and occupational accident with DOT authority. - **Sprinter payment or lease** — $450–$1,050/mo. New averages about $48k transacted; used 2020–21 runs $24–34k. Financed over 60 months. - **Permits, DOT, admin** — $110–$455/mo. Over 10,001 lbs adds medical card, DVIRs and HOS. Still no IFTA, IRP or HVUT below 26,000 lbs. ## How to calculate your Sprinter van cost per mile 1. **Add up monthly fixed costs.** Sum Sprinter payment, commercial insurance, DOT/IFTA fees, parking, and any other recurring monthly costs. 2. **Calculate variable cost per mile.** Fuel cost per mile = diesel price ÷ MPG (typically 18 mpg working). Add maintenance ($0.10–$0.22/mi) and tires ($0.01–$0.035/mi). 3. **Divide fixed costs by miles driven.** Total monthly fixed cost ÷ total monthly miles. At 9,000 miles/month, expect $0.16–$0.29 in fixed cost per mile. 4. **Add variable + fixed for operating CPM.** Operating CPM = variable + fixed. Add your desired pay per mile to get the break-even rate you must charge brokers. ## Frequently asked questions ### What is the average cost per mile for a Sprinter van? Sprinter van operating cost per mile averages $0.48–$0.88 in 2026, centering near $0.63, split into roughly $0.32–$0.59 in variable costs (fuel, maintenance, tires) and $0.16–$0.29 in fixed costs (insurance, van payment, permits) at 9,000 monthly miles. That is cost per total mile before the owner's own pay. ### What is a good break-even rate for a Sprinter van? Operating cost is $0.48–$0.88 per total mile before your pay. At $5,000/month over 9,000 total miles, add about $0.56/mile, putting break-even near $1.04–$1.44 per total mile — roughly $1.44–$2.00 per loaded mile at 28% deadhead. Sprinter expedite freight commonly quotes $1.05–$2.00 per loaded mile, so the lower half of that range leaves little room. ### Why is Sprinter CPM higher than a cargo van? Three reasons: (1) most Sprinters exceed 10,001 lbs GVWR so DOT authority and annual inspection are required, (2) fuel and maintenance run roughly 50% higher per mile, (3) insurance is typically $200/month higher. ### How do I lower my Sprinter cost per mile? Run more miles per month (utilization is the single biggest lever), shop insurance every renewal once your MVR is clean, and use a TMS or load board to cut deadhead — expedite operators commonly run 25–30% empty. ### What MPG should I expect from a diesel Sprinter? Owner-logged data across roughly 500 Sprinter 2500s puts real-world economy near 18 mpg, with newer model years reporting closer to 20. Expect the lower end loaded. At 2026 fuel prices a gasoline Transit or ProMaster costs about the same per mile, because the diesel's efficiency edge is offset by the diesel-to-gasoline price gap. ## Related calculators - [Cargo Van CPM](https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator/cargo-van) - [Sprinter Van CPM](https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator/sprinter) - [Box Truck CPM](https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator/box-truck) - [Semi Truck CPM](https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator/semi) - [W-2 vs 1099 Trucking Comparator](https://truxx.ai/tools/w2-vs-1099-trucking) --- This page is published by Truxx.AI, an AI-powered trucking dispatch platform.

That splits into about $0.55–$0.96/mile in variable costs (fuel at 9 mpg, maintenance, tires) and $0.25–$0.44/mile in fixed costs (insurance, truck payment, DOT compliance) at 8,000 monthly miles. Fuel and insurance are the two largest line items. Figures are per total mile driven and exclude the owner's own pay. No published survey covers this class, so the variable lines carry wider uncertainty than the van or Class 8 figures. ## At a glance | Metric | Value | | --- | --- | | Total operating CPM | $0.80–$1.40/mi | | Variable costs | $0.55–$0.96/mi | | Fixed costs | $0.25–$0.44/mi | | Typical monthly miles | 8,000 | | Typical fuel efficiency | 9 mpg | | Typical fuel price | $4.61/gal | | GVWR range | 10,001 - 26,000 lbs | ## Variable costs ($0.55–$0.96/mi) - **Fuel** — $0.34–$0.69/mi. 7.5–11 mpg loaded, diesel at $3.70–$5.15/gal (EIA, 2026). Fuel alone can swing this class by $0.35/mi. - **Maintenance & repair** — $0.11–$0.24/mi. Interpolated between van and Class 8 survey data — no straight-truck survey exists. - **Tires** — $0.02–$0.06/mi. Six tires (two steer, four drive) at roughly $250–$600 each over 25–60k miles. ## Fixed costs ($0.25–$0.44/mi) - **Insurance** — $700–$2,000/mo. $1M liability, $100k cargo, physical damage, occupational accident. A new authority pays $900–$2,500 in year one. - **Box truck payment or lease** — $700–$1,800/mo. Used 3–5 yr runs $37–72k; new 26 ft is now $118–124k at dealer listings. Financed over 60 months. - **Permits, parking, admin** — $195–$810/mo. At 26,000 lbs GVWR there is no IFTA, IRP or HVUT — those thresholds are all keyed to over 26,000. Mostly UCR, base plate, parking and load board. ## How to calculate your box truck cost per mile 1. **Add up monthly fixed costs.** Sum truck payment, commercial insurance, DOT/IFTA fees, parking, permits, and other recurring monthly costs. 2. **Calculate variable cost per mile.** Fuel cost per mile = diesel price ÷ MPG (7.5–11 mpg loaded). Add maintenance ($0.11–$0.24/mi) and tires ($0.022–$0.055/mi). 3. **Divide fixed costs by miles driven.** Total monthly fixed cost ÷ total monthly miles. At 8,000 miles/month, expect $0.25–$0.44 in fixed cost per mile. 4. **Add variable + fixed for operating CPM.** Operating CPM = variable + fixed. Add your desired pay per mile to get the minimum rate per mile you must accept on loads. ## Frequently asked questions ### What is the average cost per mile for a box truck? Box truck operating cost per mile averages $0.80–$1.40 in 2026 for 24–26 ft straight trucks, centering near $1.04, split into about $0.55–$0.96 in variable costs (fuel, maintenance, tires) and $0.25–$0.44 in fixed costs (insurance, payment, permits) at 8,000 monthly miles. That is cost per total mile before the owner's own pay. ### What is a good break-even rate for box truck loads? Operating cost is $0.80–$1.40 per total mile before your pay. At $5,000/month over 8,000 total miles, add about $0.63/mile, putting break-even near $1.43–$2.03 per total mile — roughly $1.83–$2.60 per loaded mile at 22% deadhead. With typical box truck freight quoting near $2.10 per loaded mile, a new-truck payment leaves very little cushion; the economics work best on a used truck or at higher utilization. ### Does a 26 ft box truck require a CDL? Not at 26,000 lbs GVWR or below. The CDL threshold is 26,001 lbs, so a truck spec'd at exactly 26,000 is non-CDL — which also puts it outside the federal drug and alcohol testing program. It still requires a USDOT number, MC authority, UCR and a DOT medical card for interstate for-hire work, and brokers may impose stricter requirements by contract. ### How do I lower my box truck cost per mile? Buy used rather than new — that single choice is worth roughly $0.15/mile at typical utilization. Then raise utilization, cut deadhead by building direct broker and shipper relationships, and run preventive maintenance on schedule to avoid roadside breakdowns. ### What MPG should I expect from a 26 ft box truck? A 26 ft diesel straight truck typically returns 7.5–11 mpg loaded, with 9 mpg a reasonable planning figure. Gas-powered box trucks average 5.5–8 mpg and rarely pencil out for longer runs. At 2026 diesel prices, each mpg is worth roughly $0.05/mile. ## Related calculators - [Cargo Van CPM](https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator/cargo-van) - [Sprinter Van CPM](https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator/sprinter) - [Box Truck CPM](https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator/box-truck) - [Semi Truck CPM](https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator/semi) - [W-2 vs 1099 Trucking Comparator](https://truxx.ai/tools/w2-vs-1099-trucking) --- This page is published by Truxx.AI, an AI-powered trucking dispatch platform.

That splits into about $0.73–$1.17/mile in variable costs (fuel at 7 mpg, maintenance, tires) and $0.42–$0.68/mile in fixed costs (truck payment, insurance, ELD, permits) at 8,000 monthly miles. The American Transportation Research Institute puts industry marginal cost at $2.336/mile for 2025 — but that figure includes driver wages ($0.818) and benefits ($0.210). Strip those out, because an owner-operator's pay is not an operating cost, and ATRI's own number becomes $1.308/mile, or about $1.43 repriced to 2026 diesel. Figures here are per total mile driven, including deadhead. ## At a glance | Metric | Value | | --- | --- | | Total operating CPM | $1.15–$1.85/mi | | Variable costs | $0.73–$1.17/mi | | Fixed costs | $0.42–$0.68/mi | | Typical monthly miles | 8,000 | | Typical fuel efficiency | 7 mpg | | Typical fuel price | $4.61/gal | | GVWR range | 26,001 - 80,000 lbs | ## Variable costs ($0.73–$1.17/mi) - **Fuel** — $0.49–$0.82/mi. 6.3–7.5 mpg at retail diesel $3.70–$5.15/gal (EIA, 2026). Fleet fuel-card discounts of $0.30–$0.60/gal explain why fleet-reported figures look better. - **Maintenance & repair** — $0.15–$0.25/mi. ATRI reports $0.215/mi excluding tires for 2025, up 8.6% year over year. ATBS client books average $0.15 including tires. - **Tires** — $0.04–$0.06/mi. ATRI 2025: $0.050/mi across eighteen tires on a tractor-trailer. ## Fixed costs ($0.42–$0.68/mi) - **Insurance** — $750–$1,850/mo. Own authority full package runs $9k–$17k/year; a new authority pays $12k–$18k. FMCSA's statutory minimum is $750k primary liability. - **Truck & trailer payment** — $1,500–$3,200/mo. Used sleeper $60–80k, new $170k, used dry van trailer $18–28k. Note that roughly a third of owner-operators carry no payment at all. - **Permits, parking, admin** — $365–$1,385/mo. HVUT $550/yr, IRP 48-state $1,500–$3,000/yr, UCR $46/yr, IFTA, ELD, drug consortium, plus parking and bookkeeping. Class 8 is the only class of the four that owes IRP, IFTA and HVUT. ## How to calculate your semi truck cost per mile 1. **Add up monthly fixed costs.** Sum truck and trailer payments, insurance, ELD, IFTA, MC authority, parking, and accountant or factoring fees. 2. **Calculate variable cost per mile.** Fuel cost per mile = diesel price ÷ MPG (typically 6.3–7.5 mpg at retail). Add maintenance ($0.15–$0.25/mi) and tires ($0.04–$0.06/mi). 3. **Divide fixed costs by miles driven.** Total monthly fixed cost ÷ total monthly miles. At 8,000 miles/month, expect $0.42–$0.68 in fixed cost per mile. 4. **Add variable + fixed for operating CPM.** Operating CPM = variable + fixed. Add desired weekly take-home divided by weekly miles to get your minimum acceptable rate per mile. ## Frequently asked questions ### What is the average cost per mile for a semi truck? Semi truck operating cost per mile averages $1.15–$1.85 in 2026 with your own authority, centering near $1.40. Variable costs run $0.73–$1.17/mile and fixed costs $0.42–$0.68/mile at 8,000 monthly miles. This excludes the owner's own pay. ATRI's widely quoted $2.336/mile for 2025 is not comparable, because it includes $1.03/mile of driver wages and benefits. ### Why is your semi CPM lower than ATRI's $2.34 per mile? Because ATRI's figure pays a driver and ours does not. ATRI's 2025 marginal cost of $2.336/mile includes driver wages of $0.818 and benefits of $0.210. An owner-operator calculator has to treat your pay separately, or it gets counted twice — once inside the cost and once again as the income you are trying to earn. Removing driver compensation leaves $1.308/mile on 2025 fuel, about $1.43 repriced to 2026 diesel, which lines up with our bottom-up figure of $1.40 within about 2%. ### What is a good break-even rate for semi truck loads? Operating cost is $1.15–$1.85 per total mile before your pay. At $5,000/month over 8,000 total miles, add about $0.63/mile, putting break-even near $1.78–$2.48 per total mile — roughly $2.14–$2.99 per loaded mile at 17% deadhead. Dry van spot averaged about $2.41 per loaded mile in early 2026, so the upper half of that cost range does not clear on spot freight. ### What is the biggest expense for a semi truck owner-operator? Fuel is the single largest line at $0.49–$0.82/mile. Truck payment plus insurance is the largest fixed block, typically $2,250–$5,050/month combined. Note that ATRI's fixed-cost lines are fleet-negotiated — a single-truck operator with own authority typically pays 1.3–2.2× ATRI's insurance rate. ### How much does a semi truck cost to buy? A used sleeper tractor runs about $60,000–$80,000 and a new one about $170,000, plus $18,000–$28,000 for a used dry van trailer. Financed, that typically becomes a truck-and-trailer payment of $1,500–$3,200 a month — though roughly a third of owner-operators own their equipment outright and carry no payment at all. ### What is the average semi truck payment? Most financed owner-operators pay $1,500–$3,200 a month for truck and trailer combined, and this calculator defaults to $2,200. At 8,000 miles a month, that range adds $0.19–$0.40 to every mile you drive; the $2,200 default adds about $0.28. Buying new versus used is the biggest factor in where you land in the range. ### How do I lower my semi truck cost per mile? Three highest-impact moves: (1) cut deadhead — the industry ran 16.7% empty in 2024 and every point costs you directly, (2) raise monthly miles to spread fixed cost, since utilization is the single biggest lever, (3) hold 7+ mpg through cruise discipline, aerodynamics and tire pressure. Running leased-on instead of under your own authority cuts roughly $0.12/mile, mostly insurance and permits the carrier absorbs. ### How does semi truck CPM compare to a box truck? Semis run $1.15–$1.85/mile vs $0.80–$1.40 for a 26 ft box truck. Semis cost more per mile but earn meaningfully more revenue per mile because they haul roughly 3× the freight volume per load.

Total CPM, break-even rate, and compliance overhead all scale roughly together — so the right equipment depends on capital, lane mix, and operational appetite, not just the cheapest number. ## Side-by-side comparison | Equipment | Operating CPM | Break-even rate | Biggest cost driver | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | [Cargo Van](https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator/cargo-van) | $0.33–$0.62/mi | $1.05–$1.35/mi | Fuel (~$0.17/mi at 21 mpg) | | [Sprinter Van](https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator/sprinter) | $0.48–$0.88/mi | $1.05–$1.45/mi | Fuel + diesel maintenance (~$0.41/mi combined) | | [Box Truck](https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator/box-truck) | $0.80–$1.40/mi | $1.45–$2.05/mi | Fuel at 9 mpg (~$0.51/mi) + commercial insurance | | [Semi / Dry Van](https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator/semi) | $1.15–$1.85/mi | $1.80–$2.50/mi | Fuel at 7 mpg (~$0.66/mi) + truck/trailer payment | Break-even rate = operating CPM + driver pay per mile. Assumes typical monthly miles: cargo van 8,500, Sprinter 9,000, box truck 10,000, semi 11,500. ## Detailed breakdown by equipment type ### Cargo Van — $0.33–$0.62/mi - **Best for:** Solo operators starting out, expedited or hotshot freight under 3,000 lbs, lanes under 600 miles. Lowest capital and compliance overhead. - **Compliance:** Under 10,001 lbs GVWR — no IFTA, IRP, HVUT, ELD or drug consortium. A USDOT number and MC authority are still required for interstate for-hire work. - **Break-even rate (operating + driver pay):** $1.05–$1.35/mi - **Calculator:** https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator/cargo-van ### Sprinter Van — $0.48–$0.88/mi - **Best for:** Operators wanting more payload and revenue than a cargo van without jumping to a CDL vehicle. Regional expedited and last-mile freight. - **Compliance:** Most setups exceed 10,001 lbs GVWR — DOT authority and annual inspection required. - **Break-even rate (operating + driver pay):** $1.05–$1.45/mi - **Calculator:** https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator/sprinter ### Box Truck — $0.80–$1.40/mi - **Best for:** Carriers building toward a fleet, regional LTL or local hauls with high stop counts, businesses needing more cube than a Sprinter. - **Compliance:** DOT authority and annual inspection mandatory. At 26,000 lbs GVWR or below it is non-CDL and owes no IFTA, IRP or HVUT — all three thresholds start above 26,000 lbs. - **Break-even rate (operating + driver pay):** $1.45–$2.05/mi - **Calculator:** https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator/box-truck ### Semi / Dry Van — $1.15–$1.85/mi - **Best for:** OTR owner-operators, contract freight, long-haul lanes 600+ miles. Highest revenue ceiling but largest capital and operational commitment. - **Compliance:** Full DOT compliance: MC authority, IFTA, ELD, drug consortium, annual inspection. CDL-A required. - **Break-even rate (operating + driver pay):** $1.80–$2.50/mi - **Calculator:** https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator/semi ## Which equipment should you choose? Three questions usually decide it before cost per mile does. 1. **How much capital do you have?** Under $50k all-in fits a cargo van or used Sprinter. $80–150k fits a new Sprinter or used box truck. $150k+ opens up box truck or used semi. New tractor-trailer combos run $200–250k. 2. **What's your lane mix?** Under 600 miles per load and expedited freight favors cargo vans and Sprinters. Regional LTL with high stop counts favors box trucks. Long-haul OTR (600+ miles) almost always pencils best on a semi. 3. **How much compliance can you absorb?** Cargo vans under 10,001 lbs avoid most federal scope. Sprinters above that threshold need DOT authority and annual inspection. Box trucks and semis carry full DOT requirements including CDL, ELD, IFTA, and drug consortium. Budget $300–600/month in compliance overhead at the semi tier. ## Frequently asked questions ### Which truck has the lowest cost per mile in 2026? Cargo vans have the lowest operating cost per mile at $0.33–$0.62, followed by Sprinter vans at $0.48–$0.88, box trucks at $0.80–$1.40, and semi trucks at $1.15–$1.85. All figures are per total mile and exclude the owner's own pay. Lower CPM does not always mean higher profit — semis earn meaningfully more revenue per mile because they haul larger loads. ### Which equipment type is most profitable for owner-operators? Profitability depends on lane mix and utilization, not just CPM. Cargo vans win on lowest capital and compliance overhead but cap out below $1.60/mile rates. Sprinter vans hit a sweet spot of moderate CPM and access to premium expedited freight. Box trucks and semis earn more per mile but need steady utilization to spread heavier fixed costs. ### What's the difference between cargo van and Sprinter cost per mile? Sprinter vans run about $0.15–$0.26/mile higher than cargo vans ($0.48–$0.88 vs $0.33–$0.62). The gap comes from three factors: most Sprinters exceed 10,001 lbs GVWR (triggering DOT authority and annual inspection), fuel and maintenance run roughly 50% higher per mile, and insurance is typically $200/month higher. ### What's the difference between box truck and semi cost per mile? Semi trucks cost about $0.35–$0.45/mile more to operate than box trucks ($1.15–$1.85 vs $0.80–$1.40). Semis burn noticeably more fuel per mile (7 mpg vs 9 mpg), carry higher truck and trailer payments, and have full DOT compliance overhead. A box truck at 26,000 lbs GVWR or below owes no IFTA, IRP, HVUT or CDL — thresholds that all start above that weight. Semis also earn meaningfully higher revenue per load. ### How do I pick the right equipment for my operation? Start with three questions: (1) what's your starting capital — cargo vans need under $50k all-in vs $150k+ for a new semi tractor-trailer, (2) what's your lane mix — expedited under 600 mi favors vans, long-haul OTR favors semis, (3) what's your tolerance for compliance overhead — cargo vans avoid most federal scope, semis carry full DOT requirements. ### Does running more miles per month lower my cost per mile? Yes — utilization is the single biggest CPM lever. Fixed costs (insurance, payment, permits) are roughly the same whether you drive 6,000 or 11,000 miles per month, so each extra mile spreads them thinner. A semi carrying $4,090/month in fixed cost spreads it to $0.51/mile at 8,000 monthly miles, but $0.63/mile at 6,500 — the same truck, 24% more fixed cost per mile. ## Related - [Cost Per Mile Calculator (interactive)](https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator) - [How to Calculate Cost Per Mile (guide)](https://truxx.ai/guides/how-to-calculate-cost-per-mile) - [W-2 vs 1099 Trucking Comparator](https://truxx.ai/tools/w2-vs-1099-trucking) --- Published by Truxx.AI, an AI-powered trucking dispatch platform.

Trucking CPM is calculated by adding your variable cost per mile (fuel, maintenance, tolls) to your fixed cost per mile (monthly fixed cost divided by monthly miles driven). The result is operating CPM — what your business spends to move the truck one mile, before paying yourself. Add driver pay per mile to get the break-even rate brokers must pay. ## The formula `Operating CPM = variable cost per mile + (monthly fixed cost ÷ monthly miles)` `Break-even rate per mile = operating CPM + driver pay per mile` ## Step-by-step 1. **List every monthly fixed cost.** Add up every cost you pay each month whether or not the wheels turn — truck or van payment, commercial insurance, permits, DOT authority renewals, parking, accountant, ELD subscription, factoring fees, dispatch software. Most owner-operators undercount this number by 20–30% because they forget the quarterly and annual line items (IFTA, UCR, MC renewal). Divide each annual item by 12 and include it. > **Worked example:** Example: a Sprinter owner-operator runs $730 payment + $820 insurance + $25 permits + $75 parking + $200 phone, load board and bookkeeping = $1,850/month in fixed cost. 2. **Calculate variable cost per mile.** Variable costs scale with miles driven. The three line items that matter: fuel, maintenance, and tires. Fuel cost per mile = fuel price per gallon ÷ MPG. Maintenance runs $0.07–$0.25/mi depending on equipment (cargo van low end, semi high end). Tires run $0.01/mi on a van to $0.05/mi on a tractor-trailer. > **Worked example:** Example: Sprinter at 18 mpg with diesel at $4.61/gal = $0.26/mi fuel + $0.15/mi maintenance + $0.02/mi tires = $0.43/mi variable. 3. **Divide fixed costs by monthly miles.** Fixed cost per mile = total monthly fixed cost ÷ monthly miles driven. This is where utilization shows up. Running 6,000 miles spreads fixed costs much thinner than 10,000 miles. Use your actual three-month rolling average, not your best month. > **Worked example:** Same Sprinter: $1,850 fixed ÷ 9,000 miles = $0.21/mi fixed cost. At 6,000 miles that fixed cost jumps to $0.31/mi. 4. **Add variable + fixed for operating CPM.** Operating cost per mile = variable cost per mile + fixed cost per mile. This is what your business spends to move the truck one mile, before driver pay. Compare against industry benchmarks, all per total mile driven: $0.33–$0.62 for cargo van, $0.48–$0.88 for Sprinter, $0.80–$1.40 for box truck, $1.15–$1.85 for semi. Note that ATRI's widely quoted $2.34/mi for Class 8 is not comparable — it already includes driver wages and benefits. > **Worked example:** Same Sprinter: $0.43 variable + $0.21 fixed = $0.64/mi operating CPM — right at the middle of the typical $0.48–$0.88 range. 5. **Add your driver pay to get the break-even rate.** The rate you must charge brokers = operating CPM + driver pay per mile. Driver pay per mile = desired weekly take-home ÷ weekly miles. If you want $1,500/week and drive 2,000 miles, that's $0.75/mi in driver pay. Below the break-even rate, the load contributes nothing to take-home. > **Worked example:** Sprinter operator wants $1,800/week take-home, drives 2,250 mi/week. Driver pay = $0.80/mi. Break-even rate = $0.64 operating + $0.80 pay = $1.44/mi. Any load below $1.44/mi loses money on a take-home basis. 6. **Factor in deadhead before quoting rates.** Deadhead (unpaid miles between loads) is the silent CPM killer, and it is why every figure on this page is stated per total mile driven. If 15% of your miles are deadhead, your effective cost on paid miles is roughly 18% higher than the operating CPM you calculated. A $1.44/mi break-even at 15% deadhead becomes $1.69/mi effective. Expedite van operators commonly run 25–30% empty, Class 8 about 17%. Always quote against your loaded-mile figure. > **Worked example:** Sprinter operator with 1,700 paid + 300 deadhead miles per week = 15% deadhead. The $1.44/mi break-even becomes $1.69/mi on paid miles. Bidding below $1.69/mi means working at a loss. ## Common pitfalls that make owner-operators undercharge - **Forgetting quarterly and annual costs.** IFTA, UCR, MC authority renewal, accountant fees, drug consortium — easy to miss because they don't hit monthly. Always divide annual costs by 12 and add them to monthly fixed cost. - **Using a best-month mileage number.** Use a three-month rolling average for monthly miles, not your record month. Optimistic utilization makes fixed cost per mile look artificially low. - **Treating deadhead miles as free.** Deadhead burns fuel and adds wear without revenue. A 15% deadhead rate pushes the effective break-even rate on paid miles ~18% higher than raw operating CPM suggests. - **Ignoring maintenance reserve.** CPM should include a maintenance reserve ($0.10–$0.40/mi depending on equipment), not just what you spent last month. A blown transmission on month 14 will not feel optional, so price it in now. - **Mixing personal and business expenses.** Phone, internet, vehicle for personal use — keep these out of operating CPM unless you separate the business portion. Otherwise the number drifts higher than what brokers will pay. ## Frequently asked questions ### What's the formula for cost per mile in trucking? Cost per mile = (monthly fixed costs ÷ monthly miles driven) + variable cost per mile. Variable cost per mile = (fuel price ÷ MPG) + maintenance per mile + tolls per mile. Add your driver pay per mile on top to get the minimum break-even rate you must charge. ### Should I include my own pay in cost per mile? No — operating cost per mile is what the business spends to move the truck. Driver pay is the next layer. Calculate operating CPM first, then add your target driver pay per mile to get the break-even rate brokers must pay. This separation lets you compare your CPM to industry benchmarks without your pay distorting the number. ### How often should I recalculate my cost per mile? Recalculate at least quarterly, and whenever any of the four big inputs move materially: fuel price (rerun if it shifts by more than $0.30/gal), insurance renewal, monthly utilization (if your three-month rolling average changes by more than 1,000 miles), or major maintenance events. ### What's the difference between cost per mile and rate per mile? Cost per mile (CPM) is what your business spends to move one mile. Rate per mile (RPM) is what brokers pay you per mile on a load. You need RPM > break-even rate to make money. Net profit per mile = RPM − operating CPM − driver pay per mile. ### How do I lower my cost per mile? Three highest-leverage moves: (1) raise utilization — driving more miles spreads fixed costs thinner, (2) cut deadhead below 12% through better dispatch and broker relationships, (3) requalify insurance annually once you have a clean MVR. Fuel and maintenance optimizations are smaller-percentage wins. ### What cost per mile is too high? Compare against equipment-specific benchmarks: above $1.10/mi for cargo van, above $1.40/mi for Sprinter, above $2.00/mi for box truck, or above $2.50/mi for semi — your CPM is likely above the 75th percentile and you have room to optimize. The most common cause is low utilization, not high spending. ## Related - [Cost Per Mile Calculator (interactive)](https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator) - [Cost Per Mile by Equipment Comparison](https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator/comparison) - [Cargo Van CPM](https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator/cargo-van) - [Sprinter Van CPM](https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator/sprinter) - [Box Truck CPM](https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator/box-truck) - [Semi Truck CPM](https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator/semi) --- Published by Truxx.AI, an AI-powered trucking dispatch platform.

Own authority pays the most and costs the most time; running under a carrier starts fastest and gives up the most control; a dispatch service sits in between. Which loads you can reach after that depends on your equipment: expedited freight on cargo vans and sprinters posts in expedite networks, while full-truckload dry van freight for a semi posts on the general load boards. ## The three ways to get loads Every route to freight is one of these three, or a combination of them. They differ on three things: how long before you can haul, how much of the linehaul you keep, and how much of the office work is yours. | | Path 1: Own authority | Path 2: Under a carrier | Path 3: Own authority + dispatch | |---|---|---|---| | **Whose MC authority** | Yours | The carrier's | Yours | | **Until you can legally haul** | 4–8 weeks from filing | Days, once onboarding clears | 4–8 weeks, then a day or two to onboard | | **Until most brokers will set you up** | 6–12 months of authority age | Immediately — you run on the carrier's age | 6–12 months of authority age | | **Who buys the insurance** | You | The carrier, usually deducted from settlements | You | | **Who finds and negotiates the load** | You | Their dispatch | The service, on lanes you set | | **What it costs** | $300 FMCSA filing, then $9k–$17k/yr insurance for a new authority | 8–20% of linehaul, plus settlement deductions | 5–10% of linehaul, on top of your own insurance | | **Control over lanes and rates** | Full | Accept or decline only | High — you set the lanes, you approve the rate | | **Back office (invoicing, collections, IFTA)** | Yours | Theirs | Usually shared — confirm before signing | | **If a broker doesn't pay** | Your loss | The carrier's loss | Your loss | | **Whose safety record the miles build** | Yours | Theirs | Yours | ### Path 1: Get your own authority and book your own freight You register with FMCSA, buy your own insurance, and find loads yourself on load boards and through broker relationships. **Best for:** Drivers who want every dollar of the linehaul and are willing to spend 8–15 hours a week on the office side of the business. - **What you get:** - You keep 100% of the linehaul — no percentage off the top. - You pick every lane, every broker, and every rate. Nobody filters what you see. - You build your own MC number, safety score, and broker relationships, which are the assets that let you grow past one truck. - **What it costs you:** - 4–8 weeks from filing before you can legally haul, and no revenue in that window. - A brand-new authority pays the highest insurance quotes of your career — carriers under 12 months of operating history are rated as unknown risk. - You are the dispatcher, the biller, the collections department, and the compliance clerk. Most drivers underestimate this by half. - Load boards show you the same loads as everyone else, at the same moment. Winning them is a phone-speed game. ### Path 2: Run under someone else's authority You lease on to an established carrier, run under their MC number and their insurance, and take the loads their dispatch assigns you. **Best for:** Drivers who want to start hauling in days instead of months, or who can't get a workable insurance quote on their own yet. - **What you get:** - No authority to file, no FMCSA waiting period, no $9k–$17k insurance policy to buy in year one. - You can be moving freight within days of onboarding rather than in two months. - Somebody else owns the compliance, the invoicing, and the collections risk when a broker doesn't pay. - **What it costs you:** - The carrier takes a percentage of every load — commonly 8–20% of linehaul, before deductions for insurance, plates, ELD, or trailer rent. - You accept or decline what dispatch offers. You do not see the broker's rate confirmation, so you cannot verify the split. - Miles run under their MC build their safety record, not yours. Leaving means starting the authority clock from zero. - Escrow and settlement deductions vary enormously between carriers. Read the lease agreement line by line before you sign it. #### You own the vehicle, leased on Your van or truck runs under their MC number. You are still an owner-operator; what you are renting is the authority, the insurance, and the back office. - **You bring:** The vehicle, its registration, and usually physical damage coverage; Fuel, maintenance, tires, and tolls; Occupational accident coverage, in most lease agreements - **They cover:** MC authority, the liability and cargo filings, and the safety program; Invoicing, collections, and the risk when a broker doesn't pay; Broker setup — you inherit their authority age from day one - **How you're paid:** A percentage of linehaul, commonly 70–88% depending on how much the carrier absorbs, minus settlement deductions. Read what those deductions are before signing — escrow, plates, ELD, and insurance chargebacks vary enormously. #### You don't own a vehicle You drive the carrier's equipment. You have no capital at risk and no operating costs, and correspondingly no equity in the operation. - **You bring:** A clean MVR; The driver credentials your equipment class requires; Your time - **They cover:** The vehicle, fuel, maintenance, and insurance; Everything on the compliance and back-office side; All of the downside when freight is soft — and all of the upside when it isn't - **How you're paid:** Percentage of linehaul, per mile, or hourly depending on the carrier and the freight. Percentage is the most common arrangement in expedite. ### Path 3: Keep your authority, pay someone to dispatch you You hold your own MC number and insurance, and a dispatch service finds, negotiates, and books the freight for a percentage of the load. **Best for:** Drivers who already have authority (or are willing to get it) and would rather drive than spend the evening refreshing a load board. - **What you get:** - You keep your MC number, your safety record, and your broker relationships. The service works for you, not the other way round. - You see the rate confirmation on every load, so the percentage is verifiable rather than a claim. - Percentage-of-load pricing means the service earns nothing when you don't haul. - **What it costs you:** - You still buy your own insurance and still carry the collections risk if a broker doesn't pay. - You still need the authority first, so this does not solve the 4–8 week startup gap. - Rates run 5–10% of linehaul. At 10% on thin freight, a dispatch service can cost more than it earns you. - Quality varies wildly. A dispatcher juggling 40 trucks is a load-board proxy, not a negotiator. ## Getting authority is not the same as getting loads Your MC number goes active in 4–8 weeks. Brokers will not book you for months after that, because their onboarding platforms filter on authority age and insurance prices the same curve. This window is the hardest stretch of a new carrier's life and it is the honest reason paths 2 and 3 exist. | Authority age | What changes | |---|---| | Day 1 – 3 months | Authority is active and you are legal to haul, but most broker setup departments will decline you outright. The ones that accept a brand-new MC know they are your only option and price accordingly. Insurance is at its most expensive because you have no loss history to rate. | | 3 – 6 months | You clear the lowest common threshold and a meaningful number of brokers will set you up. Freight quality is still below market and you are competing on availability rather than on relationship. | | 6 – 12 months | Most brokers will onboard you. You have enough completed loads for a real safety record, and insurance renewal is the first one you can actually shop. | | 12 months and beyond | The better-paying brokers and shipper vendor programs open up — many use 12 months as a hard floor. This is the point where your authority stops being a liability and starts being the asset that lets you grow. | Authority age belongs to the MC number, not to you. Two years of clean driving under a carrier's authority leaves your own MC at day zero the day you file it — which is exactly why many operators run under a carrier first and then find they have not shortened the window at all, only postponed it. ## What you need for each path Paths 1 and 3 both start with your own authority, so they share a checklist. Path 2 skips all of it and replaces it with a lease or driver agreement. ### Credentials depend on your equipment, and mostly on two numbers Two GVWR thresholds decide almost everything: 10,001 lbs brings in the DOT medical card, hours of service, and DVIRs, and 26,001 lbs brings in the CDL, the drug and alcohol program, IFTA, IRP, and the heavy vehicle use tax. Three of the four equipment classes below sit under the CDL line entirely. | Credential | Cargo Van | Sprinter | Box Truck | Semi / Dry Van | |---|---|---|---|---| | CDL | Not required — far below the 26,001 lb threshold | Not required — far below the 26,001 lb threshold | Not required at 26,000 lbs GVWR or below; the threshold is 26,001 | Class A required — above 26,001 lbs | | DOT medical card | Not required under 10,001 lbs GVWR | Required — most builds exceed 10,001 lbs | Required | Required | | Federal drug & alcohol testing program | Not required | Not required — the program is CDL-keyed | Not required without a CDL | Required — consortium enrolment comes with the CDL | | Hours of service / DVIRs / ELD | Not required under 10,001 lbs GVWR | HOS and DVIRs required over 10,001 lbs; no ELD mandate | HOS and DVIRs required; ELD varies | All three required | | IFTA / IRP / heavy vehicle use tax | None — all three key to over 26,000 lbs | None — all three key to over 26,000 lbs | None at 26,000 lbs GVWR or below | All three apply | | Clean MVR | Every carrier and insurer will pull it | Every carrier and insurer will pull it | Every carrier and insurer will pull it | Every carrier and insurer will pull it | | Requirement | Path 1 | Path 2 | Path 3 | Detail | |---|---|---|---|---| | USDOT number | Required | — | Required | Free from FMCSA. Issued as part of registration. Brokers will not set you up without one. | | MC (operating) authority | Required | — | Required | $300 one-time FMCSA filing, then a 21-day protest period before it goes active. Required to haul regulated property for hire across state lines. | | BOC-3 process agent filing | Required | — | Required | $25–$50 through a filing service. Must be on file before authority activates. | | Liability + cargo insurance | Required | — | Required | FMCSA requires a $750k liability filing on regulated freight. Brokers routinely contract for $1M liability and $100k cargo — that higher number is a contract term, not a statute. | | Unified Carrier Registration (UCR) | Required | — | Required | Annual, roughly $46 in the smallest fleet bracket. Renews every year in the fall. | | A signed lease or driver agreement | — | Required | — | The whole deal lives here: the percentage, the escrow, the deductions, and how you get out. Read it before you sign it. | | A vehicle | Required | Required | Required | Yours on paths 1 and 3 — owned or financed, with registration and physical damage coverage. On path 2 you either bring your own and lease it on, or drive the carrier's. | | Driver credentials for your equipment class | Required | Required | Required | No CDL on any of the three equipment types here. Medical card, hours-of-service, and DVIRs depend on whether your vehicle crosses 10,001 lbs GVWR — see the table above. Every carrier and insurer will also pull your MVR. | ## Where the loads actually are Expedited freight and full-truckload freight are two different markets that share a vocabulary. Signing up for the wrong venue is the most common reason a new operator concludes there is no freight for their equipment. ### Expedite networks Closed networks where expedite carriers post available capacity and trade freight with each other. This is where most cargo van and sprinter volume actually moves, and it is invisible from a general load board. Membership usually requires authority and a monthly fee. Examples: Sylectus, Expediters Online, Expedite All ### General load boards The big subscription boards carry every equipment type, but their reputation is built on dry van — which makes them the primary market for Class 8 and a much thinner side aisle for vans and straight trucks. For expedited equipment they are best used as a rate-check and a backhaul tool rather than a main venue. Examples: DAT, Truckstop, 123Loadboard ### Partial and LTL marketplaces Volume LTL and partial-truckload freight that never fills a 53-foot trailer. Straight trucks are the natural fit here, especially on retail, trade show, and appliance freight where a liftgate and a pallet jack are the whole reason you get the load. Examples: Broker partial boards, 3PL capacity portals ### Contract and dedicated freight Lanes awarded for a year rather than booked for a day, through shipper RFPs, dedicated programs, and drop-and-hook trailer pools. It pays less per mile than a hot spot load and holds its rate when the spot market falls, which is the trade. Awards go to carriers with a track record, so this is what board freight earns you rather than where you start. Examples: Shipper RFPs, 3PL dedicated programs, Drop-and-hook trailer pools ### Direct broker and shipper relationships The freight that never gets posted. A broker with a lane you have run cleanly three times will call you before they post it. This is slow to build and the single highest-margin source of loads on any equipment. Examples: Broker carrier portals, Shipper vendor programs ## Getting your first load 1. **Calculate the rate you cannot go below.** Before you look at a single load, work out your operating cost per loaded mile — total cost per mile divided by your loaded-mile share. Every rate you see afterwards gets measured against that one number instead of against how the load feels. 2. **Assemble the carrier packet before you need it.** Every broker asks for the same documents: W-9, certificate of insurance naming them, signed carrier packet, MC authority letter, and voided check or factoring notice of assignment. Have them in one folder as PDFs. Setup is where first loads are lost, because the freight goes to whoever is ready first. 3. **Sign up where your equipment's freight actually posts.** Pick the venue that matches your equipment rather than the board with the best-known name. Expedited freight and full-truckload freight are two different markets that happen to share a vocabulary. 4. **Call on the load, and call fast.** Posted loads are seen by everyone at once. The carrier who calls within the first minutes with the MC number, the equipment, and a specific pickup time usually wins it. Have your pitch to fifteen seconds. 5. **Vet the broker before you accept.** Check days-to-pay and credit score on the board, confirm the MC is active and bonded, and get the rate confirmation in writing with detention and TONU terms on it before you roll. A great rate from a broker who pays in 90 days is not a great rate. 6. **Turn the first load into a lane.** Deliver clean, send the paperwork the same day, and call the broker back when you're empty in their area. One completed load with a broker is worth more than a hundred board searches, because the second load from them never gets posted. ## Where Truxx.AI fits on each path ### Path 3 (Own authority + dispatch) — You already have your own MC or DOT number This is the main product. You keep your authority, your insurance, and your safety record; we find, negotiate, and book freight on the lanes you set, and you see the rate confirmation on every load. 5% of linehaul, deducted at settlement — if we don't book you, we don't get paid. **What it doesn't do:** It does not take the collections risk off your books, and it does not change your authority age. Apply in 5 minutes: https://truxx.ai/start?src=how-to-get-loads-dispatch ### Path 1 (Own authority) — You want your own authority but haven't filed yet We can help you get set up with your own MC number, then dispatch you on it once it's active. That puts you on path 1 and path 3 at the same time rather than filing alone and waiting. **What it doesn't do:** It does not shorten the FMCSA protest period, and it does not skip the months where brokers are still filtering you on authority age. Get started: https://truxx.ai/start?src=how-to-get-loads-authority ### Path 2 (Under a carrier) — You want to start driving now, without your own authority We can connect you with a carrier who can hire you. You run under their authority and their insurance, so you can be moving freight in days rather than months. **What it doesn't do:** The carrier sets the terms, not us — the pay structure, the deductions, and the agreement are theirs. Everything in path 2 above is what to read that agreement for.

First, get your own FMCSA operating authority and book freight yourself from load boards, expedite networks, and direct brokers. Second, run under an established carrier's authority as a leased-on driver and take the loads their dispatch assigns. Third, keep your own authority and pay a dispatch service 5–10% of linehaul to find and negotiate freight for you. Each trades money against time and control differently. ### What is the fastest way to start hauling loads? Running under an established carrier's authority. There is no FMCSA waiting period, no authority filing, and no insurance policy to buy in your first year, and — the part that matters most — you run on the carrier's authority age, so brokers will book you immediately. On your own MC you would be waiting months for that. The cost is a percentage of every load and giving up control over which loads you see. ### How long before brokers will work with a new authority? Longer than it takes to get the authority. Filing takes 4–8 weeks including the 21-day protest period, but most broker setup departments filter on authority age: roughly 3 months is the lowest common threshold, 6 months opens up a meaningful number of brokers, and many of the better-paying brokers and shipper programs use 12 months as a hard floor. Insurance prices the same curve. That gap between 'legal to haul' and 'brokers will book me' is the hardest stretch of a new carrier's life, and it is the main reason operators lease on first. ### How much does it cost to get your own trucking authority? The FMCSA operating authority filing is $300 one-time, followed by a 21-day protest period. Add a BOC-3 process agent filing ($25–$50) and annual UCR (roughly $46 in the smallest bracket). The real cost is insurance: a brand-new authority with no operating history typically pays $9,000–$17,000 in the first year, because carriers under 12 months are rated as unknown risk. ### Do I need a CDL to get loads? Not for a cargo van, a sprinter, or a box truck spec'd at 26,000 lbs GVWR or below — the CDL threshold is 26,001 lbs. Those three classes also sit outside the federal drug and alcohol testing program. Above 10,001 lbs you do need a DOT medical card, hours-of-service compliance, and DVIRs. A CDL only becomes necessary on Class 8 equipment. ### Is a dispatch service worth it? It depends on your rate and your alternative. At 5% of linehaul, a dispatch service needs to find you roughly one better load per twenty to pay for itself, which is achievable. At 10% on thin freight it often is not. The test is whether you see the broker's rate confirmation on every load — if you cannot verify the linehaul the percentage is calculated on, you cannot evaluate the service. ### Do I need my own authority to get loads? No. Running under an established carrier's MC number is a legitimate and common path, especially in the first year when insurance on a new authority is at its most expensive. The trade is that the miles build the carrier's safety record rather than yours, and leaving means starting the authority clock from zero. ## Related - [How to Get Loads for a Cargo Van](https://truxx.ai/guides/how-to-get-loads/cargo-van) - [How to Get Loads for a Sprinter Van](https://truxx.ai/guides/how-to-get-loads/sprinter) - [How to Get Loads for a Box Truck](https://truxx.ai/guides/how-to-get-loads/box-truck) - [How to Get Loads for a Semi Truck](https://truxx.ai/guides/how-to-get-loads/semi) - [Cost Per Mile Calculator](https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator) - [How to Calculate Cost Per Mile](https://truxx.ai/guides/how-to-calculate-cost-per-mile) - [DOT Inspection Prep Guide](https://truxx.ai/guides/dot-inspection-checklist) - [Truxx Freight Intelligence — booked-load rate index](https://truxx.ai/insights) --- Published by Truxx.AI, an AI-powered trucking dispatch platform.

Apply at https://truxx.ai/start. --- # How to Get Loads for a Cargo Van Source: https://truxx.ai/guides/how-to-get-loads/cargo-van > There are three ways to get loads for a cargo van: get your own MC authority and book directly from expedite networks and load boards, run under an established carrier's authority and take dispatched freight, or keep your own authority and pay a dispatch service 5–10% to find the loads. Cargo van freight is expedited — small, urgent, and time-critical — so most of the volume moves through expedite networks and direct broker relationships rather than the general load boards. ## The three ways to get loads Every route to freight is one of these three, or a combination of them. They differ on three things: how long before you can haul, how much of the linehaul you keep, and how much of the office work is yours. | | Path 1: Own authority | Path 2: Under a carrier | Path 3: Own authority + dispatch | |---|---|---|---| | **Whose MC authority** | Yours | The carrier's | Yours | | **Until you can legally haul** | 4–8 weeks from filing | Days, once onboarding clears | 4–8 weeks, then a day or two to onboard | | **Until most brokers will set you up** | 6–12 months of authority age | Immediately — you run on the carrier's age | 6–12 months of authority age | | **Who buys the insurance** | You | The carrier, usually deducted from settlements | You | | **Who finds and negotiates the load** | You | Their dispatch | The service, on lanes you set | | **What it costs** | $300 FMCSA filing, then $9k–$17k/yr insurance for a new authority | 8–20% of linehaul, plus settlement deductions | 5–10% of linehaul, on top of your own insurance | | **Control over lanes and rates** | Full | Accept or decline only | High — you set the lanes, you approve the rate | | **Back office (invoicing, collections, IFTA)** | Yours | Theirs | Usually shared — confirm before signing | | **If a broker doesn't pay** | Your loss | The carrier's loss | Your loss | | **Whose safety record the miles build** | Yours | Theirs | Yours | ### Path 1: Get your own authority and book your own freight You register with FMCSA, buy your own insurance, and find loads yourself on load boards and through broker relationships. **Best for:** Drivers who want every dollar of the linehaul and are willing to spend 8–15 hours a week on the office side of the business. - **What you get:** - You keep 100% of the linehaul — no percentage off the top. - You pick every lane, every broker, and every rate. Nobody filters what you see. - You build your own MC number, safety score, and broker relationships, which are the assets that let you grow past one truck. - **What it costs you:** - 4–8 weeks from filing before you can legally haul, and no revenue in that window. - A brand-new authority pays the highest insurance quotes of your career — carriers under 12 months of operating history are rated as unknown risk. - You are the dispatcher, the biller, the collections department, and the compliance clerk. Most drivers underestimate this by half. - Load boards show you the same loads as everyone else, at the same moment. Winning them is a phone-speed game. ### Path 2: Run under someone else's authority You lease on to an established carrier, run under their MC number and their insurance, and take the loads their dispatch assigns you. **Best for:** Drivers who want to start hauling in days instead of months, or who can't get a workable insurance quote on their own yet. - **What you get:** - No authority to file, no FMCSA waiting period, no $9k–$17k insurance policy to buy in year one. - You can be moving freight within days of onboarding rather than in two months. - Somebody else owns the compliance, the invoicing, and the collections risk when a broker doesn't pay. - **What it costs you:** - The carrier takes a percentage of every load — commonly 8–20% of linehaul, before deductions for insurance, plates, ELD, or trailer rent. - You accept or decline what dispatch offers. You do not see the broker's rate confirmation, so you cannot verify the split. - Miles run under their MC build their safety record, not yours. Leaving means starting the authority clock from zero. - Escrow and settlement deductions vary enormously between carriers. Read the lease agreement line by line before you sign it. #### You own the vehicle, leased on Your van or truck runs under their MC number. You are still an owner-operator; what you are renting is the authority, the insurance, and the back office. - **You bring:** The vehicle, its registration, and usually physical damage coverage; Fuel, maintenance, tires, and tolls; Occupational accident coverage, in most lease agreements - **They cover:** MC authority, the liability and cargo filings, and the safety program; Invoicing, collections, and the risk when a broker doesn't pay; Broker setup — you inherit their authority age from day one - **How you're paid:** A percentage of linehaul, commonly 70–88% depending on how much the carrier absorbs, minus settlement deductions. Read what those deductions are before signing — escrow, plates, ELD, and insurance chargebacks vary enormously. #### You don't own a vehicle You drive the carrier's equipment. You have no capital at risk and no operating costs, and correspondingly no equity in the operation. - **You bring:** A clean MVR; The driver credentials your equipment class requires; Your time - **They cover:** The vehicle, fuel, maintenance, and insurance; Everything on the compliance and back-office side; All of the downside when freight is soft — and all of the upside when it isn't - **How you're paid:** Percentage of linehaul, per mile, or hourly depending on the carrier and the freight. Percentage is the most common arrangement in expedite. ### Path 3: Keep your authority, pay someone to dispatch you You hold your own MC number and insurance, and a dispatch service finds, negotiates, and books the freight for a percentage of the load. **Best for:** Drivers who already have authority (or are willing to get it) and would rather drive than spend the evening refreshing a load board. - **What you get:** - You keep your MC number, your safety record, and your broker relationships. The service works for you, not the other way round. - You see the rate confirmation on every load, so the percentage is verifiable rather than a claim. - Percentage-of-load pricing means the service earns nothing when you don't haul. - **What it costs you:** - You still buy your own insurance and still carry the collections risk if a broker doesn't pay. - You still need the authority first, so this does not solve the 4–8 week startup gap. - Rates run 5–10% of linehaul.

Two years of clean driving under a carrier's authority leaves your own MC at day zero the day you file it — which is exactly why many operators run under a carrier first and then find they have not shortened the window at all, only postponed it. ## What cargo van freight looks like - Time-critical parts runs — automotive line-down, aerospace AOG, manufacturing spares - Medical and laboratory couriers on scheduled routes - Final-mile and same-day for 3PLs and retailers - Small palletized freight: typically 1–3 pallets, up to roughly 3,000–4,000 lbs ## Authority and compliance for a cargo van Under 10,001 lbs GVWR you sit outside most of the federal safety regulations — no DOT medical card, no hours-of-service, no ELD, no DVIRs, and no federal drug and alcohol testing program. What that does not automatically exempt you from is FMCSA registration: the operating authority requirement is keyed to hauling property for hire across state lines, not to what the vehicle weighs. Enforcement here is uneven and plenty of van operators run intrastate or under someone else's MC for exactly that reason. If you intend to book your own interstate freight, plan on an MC number, a BOC-3, and an insurance filing, and confirm your specific setup against FMCSA before you file. ## Which path cargo van operators actually take Cargo van operators run under someone else's authority more often than any other class, and insurance is usually why. Brokers contract for $1M combined single limit on freight a statute would not require it for, and a new van authority with no operating history gets quoted accordingly. Running under a carrier for the first year to build a record, then filing your own authority, is a common and rational sequence — not a failure to launch. ## What you need for each path Paths 1 and 3 both start with your own authority, so they share a checklist. Path 2 skips all of it and replaces it with a lease or driver agreement. ### You do not need a CDL for this The commercial driver's licence threshold is 26,001 lbs GVWR, and a cargo van, a sprinter, and a box truck spec'd at 26,000 lbs all sit below it — only Class 8 crosses it. What you do need depends on which side of the 10,001 lb line your vehicle falls. | Credential | Cargo Van | Sprinter | Box Truck | Semi / Dry Van | |---|---|---|---|---| | CDL | Not required — far below the 26,001 lb threshold | Not required — far below the 26,001 lb threshold | Not required at 26,000 lbs GVWR or below; the threshold is 26,001 | Class A required — above 26,001 lbs | | DOT medical card | Not required under 10,001 lbs GVWR | Required — most builds exceed 10,001 lbs | Required | Required | | Federal drug & alcohol testing program | Not required | Not required — the program is CDL-keyed | Not required without a CDL | Required — consortium enrolment comes with the CDL | | Hours of service / DVIRs / ELD | Not required under 10,001 lbs GVWR | HOS and DVIRs required over 10,001 lbs; no ELD mandate | HOS and DVIRs required; ELD varies | All three required | | IFTA / IRP / heavy vehicle use tax | None — all three key to over 26,000 lbs | None — all three key to over 26,000 lbs | None at 26,000 lbs GVWR or below | All three apply | | Clean MVR | Every carrier and insurer will pull it | Every carrier and insurer will pull it | Every carrier and insurer will pull it | Every carrier and insurer will pull it | | Requirement | Path 1 | Path 2 | Path 3 | Detail | |---|---|---|---|---| | USDOT number | Required | — | Required | Free from FMCSA.

Signing up for the wrong venue is the most common reason a new operator concludes there is no freight for their equipment. **For cargo vans:** If you signed up for a general load board, filtered to cargo van, and found almost nothing, the board is not broken. Van freight concentrates in expedite networks that a general board does not index. Budget for one expedite network membership before you budget for a second general board. ### Expedite networks Closed networks where expedite carriers post available capacity and trade freight with each other. This is where most cargo van and sprinter volume actually moves, and it is invisible from a general load board. Membership usually requires authority and a monthly fee. Examples: Sylectus, Expediters Online, Expedite All ### General load boards The big subscription boards carry every equipment type, but their reputation is built on dry van — which makes them the primary market for Class 8 and a much thinner side aisle for vans and straight trucks. For expedited equipment they are best used as a rate-check and a backhaul tool rather than a main venue. Examples: DAT, Truckstop, 123Loadboard ### Partial and LTL marketplaces _(thin for cargo vans)_ Volume LTL and partial-truckload freight that never fills a 53-foot trailer.

Expedited freight and full-truckload freight are two different markets that happen to share a vocabulary. > **Cargo Van:** An expedite network will out-produce a general dry-van board for a cargo van by a wide margin — the general board's van section is a side aisle, not the store. 4. **Call on the load, and call fast.** Posted loads are seen by everyone at once. The carrier who calls within the first minutes with the MC number, the equipment, and a specific pickup time usually wins it. Have your pitch to fifteen seconds. > **Cargo Van:** Expedite freight is time-critical by definition. 'I'm 40 minutes out and empty' beats a lower rate more often than new operators expect. 5. **Vet the broker before you accept.** Check days-to-pay and credit score on the board, confirm the MC is active and bonded, and get the rate confirmation in writing with detention and TONU terms on it before you roll. A great rate from a broker who pays in 90 days is not a great rate. > **Cargo Van:** Van operators run thin cash reserves. A 60-day payer can end an operation that was profitable on paper. 6. **Turn the first load into a lane.** Deliver clean, send the paperwork the same day, and call the broker back when you're empty in their area. One completed load with a broker is worth more than a hundred board searches, because the second load from them never gets posted. > **Cargo Van:** Expedite dispatchers keep a short list of vans that answer the phone at 2am. Getting onto it is the whole game. ## Where Truxx.AI fits on each path ### Path 3 (Own authority + dispatch) — You already have your own MC or DOT number This is the main product.

Three ways: get your own MC authority and book from expedite networks and load boards, lease on to a carrier and run under their authority, or keep your authority and pay a dispatch service 5–10% of linehaul to find the freight. Cargo van loads are expedited freight, so expedite networks and direct broker relationships produce far more volume than general load boards. ### Do I need authority to haul loads in a cargo van? Under 10,001 lbs GVWR you are outside most federal safety rules — no medical card, hours-of-service, ELD, or DVIRs. But FMCSA operating authority is tied to hauling property for hire in interstate commerce rather than to vehicle weight, so if you are booking your own interstate freight you should plan on an MC number, a BOC-3 filing, and an insurance filing. Running under an established carrier's authority avoids all of it. ### What is the best load board for cargo vans? For cargo vans, expedite networks such as Sylectus and Expediters Online carry far more relevant volume than the general subscription boards, whose van sections are thin next to their dry-van inventory. General boards are still useful for rate-checking and backhauls. The highest-margin loads come from direct broker relationships and are never posted at all. ### How much insurance do I need for a cargo van? Brokers routinely require $1M combined single limit plus $100k cargo before they will set you up. That is a contract requirement, not a statutory one — under 10,001 lbs the federal minimums are lower or do not apply. Expect $333–$935 per month, and expect the high end in your first year with a new authority. ### Can you make money with a cargo van in trucking? Cargo vans have the lowest operating cost of any class, roughly $0.33–$0.62 per mile, and the lowest capital and compliance overhead. The constraint is utilization and deadhead, not the rate: at 25–30% empty miles you are paying to move the van more than a quarter of the time. Operators who make it work run consistent lanes with repeat brokers rather than chasing the board. ## Related - [How to Get Loads for a Sprinter Van](https://truxx.ai/guides/how-to-get-loads/sprinter) - [How to Get Loads for a Box Truck](https://truxx.ai/guides/how-to-get-loads/box-truck) - [How to Get Loads for a Semi Truck](https://truxx.ai/guides/how-to-get-loads/semi) - [Cost Per Mile Calculator](https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator) - [How to Calculate Cost Per Mile](https://truxx.ai/guides/how-to-calculate-cost-per-mile) - [DOT Inspection Prep Guide](https://truxx.ai/guides/dot-inspection-checklist) - [Truxx Freight Intelligence — booked-load rate index](https://truxx.ai/insights) - [Booked spot rates for this equipment](https://truxx.ai/insights/cargo-van-spot-rates) --- Published by Truxx.AI, an AI-powered trucking dispatch platform.

Sprinter freight is the heart of the expedite market — longer runs, heavier payloads, and a large share of team-driven work that a solo driver cannot legally cover. ## The three ways to get loads Every route to freight is one of these three, or a combination of them. They differ on three things: how long before you can haul, how much of the linehaul you keep, and how much of the office work is yours. | | Path 1: Own authority | Path 2: Under a carrier | Path 3: Own authority + dispatch | |---|---|---|---| | **Whose MC authority** | Yours | The carrier's | Yours | | **Until you can legally haul** | 4–8 weeks from filing | Days, once onboarding clears | 4–8 weeks, then a day or two to onboard | | **Until most brokers will set you up** | 6–12 months of authority age | Immediately — you run on the carrier's age | 6–12 months of authority age | | **Who buys the insurance** | You | The carrier, usually deducted from settlements | You | | **Who finds and negotiates the load** | You | Their dispatch | The service, on lanes you set | | **What it costs** | $300 FMCSA filing, then $9k–$17k/yr insurance for a new authority | 8–20% of linehaul, plus settlement deductions | 5–10% of linehaul, on top of your own insurance | | **Control over lanes and rates** | Full | Accept or decline only | High — you set the lanes, you approve the rate | | **Back office (invoicing, collections, IFTA)** | Yours | Theirs | Usually shared — confirm before signing | | **If a broker doesn't pay** | Your loss | The carrier's loss | Your loss | | **Whose safety record the miles build** | Yours | Theirs | Yours | ### Path 1: Get your own authority and book your own freight You register with FMCSA, buy your own insurance, and find loads yourself on load boards and through broker relationships. **Best for:** Drivers who want every dollar of the linehaul and are willing to spend 8–15 hours a week on the office side of the business. - **What you get:** - You keep 100% of the linehaul — no percentage off the top. - You pick every lane, every broker, and every rate. Nobody filters what you see. - You build your own MC number, safety score, and broker relationships, which are the assets that let you grow past one truck. - **What it costs you:** - 4–8 weeks from filing before you can legally haul, and no revenue in that window. - A brand-new authority pays the highest insurance quotes of your career — carriers under 12 months of operating history are rated as unknown risk. - You are the dispatcher, the biller, the collections department, and the compliance clerk. Most drivers underestimate this by half. - Load boards show you the same loads as everyone else, at the same moment. Winning them is a phone-speed game. ### Path 2: Run under someone else's authority You lease on to an established carrier, run under their MC number and their insurance, and take the loads their dispatch assigns you. **Best for:** Drivers who want to start hauling in days instead of months, or who can't get a workable insurance quote on their own yet. - **What you get:** - No authority to file, no FMCSA waiting period, no $9k–$17k insurance policy to buy in year one. - You can be moving freight within days of onboarding rather than in two months. - Somebody else owns the compliance, the invoicing, and the collections risk when a broker doesn't pay. - **What it costs you:** - The carrier takes a percentage of every load — commonly 8–20% of linehaul, before deductions for insurance, plates, ELD, or trailer rent. - You accept or decline what dispatch offers. You do not see the broker's rate confirmation, so you cannot verify the split. - Miles run under their MC build their safety record, not yours. Leaving means starting the authority clock from zero. - Escrow and settlement deductions vary enormously between carriers. Read the lease agreement line by line before you sign it. #### You own the vehicle, leased on Your van or truck runs under their MC number. You are still an owner-operator; what you are renting is the authority, the insurance, and the back office. - **You bring:** The vehicle, its registration, and usually physical damage coverage; Fuel, maintenance, tires, and tolls; Occupational accident coverage, in most lease agreements - **They cover:** MC authority, the liability and cargo filings, and the safety program; Invoicing, collections, and the risk when a broker doesn't pay; Broker setup — you inherit their authority age from day one - **How you're paid:** A percentage of linehaul, commonly 70–88% depending on how much the carrier absorbs, minus settlement deductions. Read what those deductions are before signing — escrow, plates, ELD, and insurance chargebacks vary enormously. #### You don't own a vehicle You drive the carrier's equipment. You have no capital at risk and no operating costs, and correspondingly no equity in the operation. - **You bring:** A clean MVR; The driver credentials your equipment class requires; Your time - **They cover:** The vehicle, fuel, maintenance, and insurance; Everything on the compliance and back-office side; All of the downside when freight is soft — and all of the upside when it isn't - **How you're paid:** Percentage of linehaul, per mile, or hourly depending on the carrier and the freight. Percentage is the most common arrangement in expedite. ### Path 3: Keep your authority, pay someone to dispatch you You hold your own MC number and insurance, and a dispatch service finds, negotiates, and books the freight for a percentage of the load. **Best for:** Drivers who already have authority (or are willing to get it) and would rather drive than spend the evening refreshing a load board. - **What you get:** - You keep your MC number, your safety record, and your broker relationships. The service works for you, not the other way round. - You see the rate confirmation on every load, so the percentage is verifiable rather than a claim. - Percentage-of-load pricing means the service earns nothing when you don't haul. - **What it costs you:** - You still buy your own insurance and still carry the collections risk if a broker doesn't pay. - You still need the authority first, so this does not solve the 4–8 week startup gap. - Rates run 5–10% of linehaul. At 10% on thin freight, a dispatch service can cost more than it earns you. - Quality varies wildly. A dispatcher juggling 40 trucks is a load-board proxy, not a negotiator. ## Getting authority is not the same as getting loads Your MC number goes active in 4–8 weeks. Brokers will not book you for months after that, because their onboarding platforms filter on authority age and insurance prices the same curve. This window is the hardest stretch of a new carrier's life and it is the honest reason paths 2 and 3 exist. | Authority age | What changes | |---|---| | Day 1 – 3 months | Authority is active and you are legal to haul, but most broker setup departments will decline you outright. The ones that accept a brand-new MC know they are your only option and price accordingly. Insurance is at its most expensive because you have no loss history to rate. | | 3 – 6 months | You clear the lowest common threshold and a meaningful number of brokers will set you up. Freight quality is still below market and you are competing on availability rather than on relationship. | | 6 – 12 months | Most brokers will onboard you. You have enough completed loads for a real safety record, and insurance renewal is the first one you can actually shop. | | 12 months and beyond | The better-paying brokers and shipper vendor programs open up — many use 12 months as a hard floor. This is the point where your authority stops being a liability and starts being the asset that lets you grow. | Authority age belongs to the MC number, not to you. Two years of clean driving under a carrier's authority leaves your own MC at day zero the day you file it — which is exactly why many operators run under a carrier first and then find they have not shortened the window at all, only postponed it. ## What sprinter van freight looks like - Long-haul expedite, frequently team-driven for time-critical delivery windows - Manufacturing and automotive line-down freight moving 800+ miles - 4–6 pallets, typically up to around 5,000 lbs depending on your build - Trade show, high-value, and white-glove freight where security matters more than cost ## Authority and compliance for a sprinter van Most sprinter builds cross 10,001 lbs GVWR, and that line changes everything. Over it you are a commercial motor vehicle: DOT number, medical card, hours-of-service, DVIRs, and an annual inspection all apply. What does not apply below 26,000 lbs is IFTA, IRP, and the heavy vehicle use tax — so your compliance load sits in the middle, heavier than a cargo van and much lighter than a Class 8. Check your specific van's door-jamb GVWR rating rather than assuming, because the same model year exists on both sides of the line. ## Which path sprinter van operators actually take Sprinter operators split more evenly across all three paths than any other class. The teams generally hold their own authority, because team expedite is the highest-rate work on this equipment and nobody wants to hand a percentage of it away. Solo drivers newer to expedite more often lease on first, learn which lanes and brokers repeat, then file their own authority once they know where their freight lives. ## What you need for each path Paths 1 and 3 both start with your own authority, so they share a checklist. Path 2 skips all of it and replaces it with a lease or driver agreement. ### You do not need a CDL for this The commercial driver's licence threshold is 26,001 lbs GVWR, and a cargo van, a sprinter, and a box truck spec'd at 26,000 lbs all sit below it — only Class 8 crosses it. What you do need depends on which side of the 10,001 lb line your vehicle falls. | Credential | Cargo Van | Sprinter | Box Truck | Semi / Dry Van | |---|---|---|---|---| | CDL | Not required — far below the 26,001 lb threshold | Not required — far below the 26,001 lb threshold | Not required at 26,000 lbs GVWR or below; the threshold is 26,001 | Class A required — above 26,001 lbs | | DOT medical card | Not required under 10,001 lbs GVWR | Required — most builds exceed 10,001 lbs | Required | Required | | Federal drug & alcohol testing program | Not required | Not required — the program is CDL-keyed | Not required without a CDL | Required — consortium enrolment comes with the CDL | | Hours of service / DVIRs / ELD | Not required under 10,001 lbs GVWR | HOS and DVIRs required over 10,001 lbs; no ELD mandate | HOS and DVIRs required; ELD varies | All three required | | IFTA / IRP / heavy vehicle use tax | None — all three key to over 26,000 lbs | None — all three key to over 26,000 lbs | None at 26,000 lbs GVWR or below | All three apply | | Clean MVR | Every carrier and insurer will pull it | Every carrier and insurer will pull it | Every carrier and insurer will pull it | Every carrier and insurer will pull it | | Requirement | Path 1 | Path 2 | Path 3 | Detail | |---|---|---|---|---| | USDOT number | Required | — | Required | Free from FMCSA. Issued as part of registration. Brokers will not set you up without one. | | MC (operating) authority | Required | — | Required | $300 one-time FMCSA filing, then a 21-day protest period before it goes active. Required to haul regulated property for hire across state lines. | | BOC-3 process agent filing | Required | — | Required | $25–$50 through a filing service. Must be on file before authority activates. | | Liability + cargo insurance | Required | — | Required | FMCSA requires a $750k liability filing on regulated freight. Brokers routinely contract for $1M liability and $100k cargo — that higher number is a contract term, not a statute. | | Unified Carrier Registration (UCR) | Required | — | Required | Annual, roughly $46 in the smallest fleet bracket. Renews every year in the fall. | | A signed lease or driver agreement | — | Required | — | The whole deal lives here: the percentage, the escrow, the deductions, and how you get out. Read it before you sign it. | | A vehicle | Required | Required | Required | Yours on paths 1 and 3 — owned or financed, with registration and physical damage coverage. On path 2 you either bring your own and lease it on, or drive the carrier's. | | Driver credentials for your equipment class | Required | Required | Required | No CDL on any of the three equipment types here. Medical card, hours-of-service, and DVIRs depend on whether your vehicle crosses 10,001 lbs GVWR — see the table above. Every carrier and insurer will also pull your MVR. | ## Where the loads actually are Expedited freight and full-truckload freight are two different markets that share a vocabulary. Signing up for the wrong venue is the most common reason a new operator concludes there is no freight for their equipment. **For sprinter vans:** Expedite networks are not a supplement for a sprinter — they are the primary venue. General boards will show you sprinter loads, but the network freight is where the rate premium is, because the carrier posting it is covering a customer commitment rather than shopping a spot rate. ### Expedite networks Closed networks where expedite carriers post available capacity and trade freight with each other. This is where most cargo van and sprinter volume actually moves, and it is invisible from a general load board. Membership usually requires authority and a monthly fee. Examples: Sylectus, Expediters Online, Expedite All ### General load boards The big subscription boards carry every equipment type, but their reputation is built on dry van — which makes them the primary market for Class 8 and a much thinner side aisle for vans and straight trucks. For expedited equipment they are best used as a rate-check and a backhaul tool rather than a main venue. Examples: DAT, Truckstop, 123Loadboard ### Partial and LTL marketplaces _(thin for sprinter vans)_ Volume LTL and partial-truckload freight that never fills a 53-foot trailer. Straight trucks are the natural fit here, especially on retail, trade show, and appliance freight where a liftgate and a pallet jack are the whole reason you get the load. Examples: Broker partial boards, 3PL capacity portals ### Contract and dedicated freight _(thin for sprinter vans)_ Lanes awarded for a year rather than booked for a day, through shipper RFPs, dedicated programs, and drop-and-hook trailer pools. It pays less per mile than a hot spot load and holds its rate when the spot market falls, which is the trade. Awards go to carriers with a track record, so this is what board freight earns you rather than where you start. Examples: Shipper RFPs, 3PL dedicated programs, Drop-and-hook trailer pools ### Direct broker and shipper relationships The freight that never gets posted. A broker with a lane you have run cleanly three times will call you before they post it. This is slow to build and the single highest-margin source of loads on any equipment. Examples: Broker carrier portals, Shipper vendor programs ## Getting your first load 1. **Calculate the rate you cannot go below.** Before you look at a single load, work out your operating cost per loaded mile — total cost per mile divided by your loaded-mile share. Every rate you see afterwards gets measured against that one number instead of against how the load feels. > **Sprinter:** At $0.63/mi operating cost and 28% deadhead, your break-even is roughly $0.88 per loaded mile before your own pay. 2. **Assemble the carrier packet before you need it.** Every broker asks for the same documents: W-9, certificate of insurance naming them, signed carrier packet, MC authority letter, and voided check or factoring notice of assignment. Have them in one folder as PDFs. Setup is where first loads are lost, because the freight goes to whoever is ready first. > **Sprinter:** Include your annual inspection certificate. Sprinters over 10,001 lbs need one, and brokers running expedite freight check. 3. **Sign up where your equipment's freight actually posts.** Pick the venue that matches your equipment rather than the board with the best-known name. Expedited freight and full-truckload freight are two different markets that happen to share a vocabulary. > **Sprinter:** Expedite networks are the core venue for sprinters, especially for team-driven long runs that a solo driver cannot legally cover. 4. **Call on the load, and call fast.** Posted loads are seen by everyone at once. The carrier who calls within the first minutes with the MC number, the equipment, and a specific pickup time usually wins it. Have your pitch to fifteen seconds. > **Sprinter:** Say up front whether you are solo or team. It changes what the broker can legally promise the shipper, and it is the first thing they need to know. 5. **Vet the broker before you accept.** Check days-to-pay and credit score on the board, confirm the MC is active and bonded, and get the rate confirmation in writing with detention and TONU terms on it before you roll. A great rate from a broker who pays in 90 days is not a great rate. > **Sprinter:** On long expedite runs your fuel outlay is real money. Confirm the payment terms before you commit to the miles. 6. **Turn the first load into a lane.** Deliver clean, send the paperwork the same day, and call the broker back when you're empty in their area. One completed load with a broker is worth more than a hundred board searches, because the second load from them never gets posted. > **Sprinter:** Ask which lanes they cover repeatedly. Sprinter freight is relationship-driven and repeats far more than spot dry van. ## Where Truxx.AI fits on each path ### Path 3 (Own authority + dispatch) — You already have your own MC or DOT number This is the main product.

Three ways: get your own MC authority and book from expedite networks and load boards, lease on to an established carrier and run under their authority, or keep your authority and pay a dispatch service 5–10% of linehaul. Expedite networks such as Sylectus carry the bulk of sprinter freight and are the primary venue rather than a supplement to general boards. ### Do sprinter vans need DOT authority? Most sprinter builds exceed 10,001 lbs GVWR, which makes them commercial motor vehicles: DOT number, medical card, hours-of-service, DVIRs, and annual inspection all apply. Operating authority is required to haul property for hire across state lines. IFTA, IRP, and the heavy vehicle use tax do not apply below 26,000 lbs. Check the GVWR on your door jamb — the same model year exists on both sides of the 10,001 lb line. ### How do I find sprinter van contracts? Dedicated and contract sprinter work almost never posts publicly. It comes from expedite networks where carriers place recurring customer freight, from broker relationships built on completed loads, and from shipper vendor programs you apply to directly. Board freight is where you start; contracts are what you build from consistent performance on the same lanes. ### Is a sprinter van profitable for expedited freight? Operating cost runs about $0.48–$0.88 per mile before your own pay, and the compliance overhead is real once you cross 10,001 lbs. Team-driven sprinters earn the premium on this equipment because they can cover long time-critical runs solo drivers legally cannot. Solo sprinter operations live or die on utilization and deadhead. ### Why is sprinter rate per mile lower than cargo van rate per mile? Because sprinter hauls are longer. Rate per mile decays with distance — the fixed cost of a pickup and a delivery is spread over more miles — so a longer-haul equipment class prints a lower per-mile figure while earning more per load. Compare revenue per load, or compare rate per mile only within the same haul-length band. ## Related - [How to Get Loads for a Cargo Van](https://truxx.ai/guides/how-to-get-loads/cargo-van) - [How to Get Loads for a Box Truck](https://truxx.ai/guides/how-to-get-loads/box-truck) - [How to Get Loads for a Semi Truck](https://truxx.ai/guides/how-to-get-loads/semi) - [Cost Per Mile Calculator](https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator) - [How to Calculate Cost Per Mile](https://truxx.ai/guides/how-to-calculate-cost-per-mile) - [DOT Inspection Prep Guide](https://truxx.ai/guides/dot-inspection-checklist) - [Truxx Freight Intelligence — booked-load rate index](https://truxx.ai/insights) - [Booked spot rates for this equipment](https://truxx.ai/insights/sprinter-spot-rates) --- Published by Truxx.AI, an AI-powered trucking dispatch platform.

Box truck freight is mostly partial and LTL work — retail, appliance, trade show, and palletized expedite — and equipment specifics like a liftgate and pallet jack decide who wins the load as often as the rate does. ## The three ways to get loads Every route to freight is one of these three, or a combination of them. They differ on three things: how long before you can haul, how much of the linehaul you keep, and how much of the office work is yours. | | Path 1: Own authority | Path 2: Under a carrier | Path 3: Own authority + dispatch | |---|---|---|---| | **Whose MC authority** | Yours | The carrier's | Yours | | **Until you can legally haul** | 4–8 weeks from filing | Days, once onboarding clears | 4–8 weeks, then a day or two to onboard | | **Until most brokers will set you up** | 6–12 months of authority age | Immediately — you run on the carrier's age | 6–12 months of authority age | | **Who buys the insurance** | You | The carrier, usually deducted from settlements | You | | **Who finds and negotiates the load** | You | Their dispatch | The service, on lanes you set | | **What it costs** | $300 FMCSA filing, then $9k–$17k/yr insurance for a new authority | 8–20% of linehaul, plus settlement deductions | 5–10% of linehaul, on top of your own insurance | | **Control over lanes and rates** | Full | Accept or decline only | High — you set the lanes, you approve the rate | | **Back office (invoicing, collections, IFTA)** | Yours | Theirs | Usually shared — confirm before signing | | **If a broker doesn't pay** | Your loss | The carrier's loss | Your loss | | **Whose safety record the miles build** | Yours | Theirs | Yours | ### Path 1: Get your own authority and book your own freight You register with FMCSA, buy your own insurance, and find loads yourself on load boards and through broker relationships. **Best for:** Drivers who want every dollar of the linehaul and are willing to spend 8–15 hours a week on the office side of the business. - **What you get:** - You keep 100% of the linehaul — no percentage off the top. - You pick every lane, every broker, and every rate.

Leaving means starting the authority clock from zero. - Escrow and settlement deductions vary enormously between carriers. Read the lease agreement line by line before you sign it. #### You own the vehicle, leased on Your van or truck runs under their MC number. You are still an owner-operator; what you are renting is the authority, the insurance, and the back office. - **You bring:** The vehicle, its registration, and usually physical damage coverage; Fuel, maintenance, tires, and tolls; Occupational accident coverage, in most lease agreements - **They cover:** MC authority, the liability and cargo filings, and the safety program; Invoicing, collections, and the risk when a broker doesn't pay; Broker setup — you inherit their authority age from day one - **How you're paid:** A percentage of linehaul, commonly 70–88% depending on how much the carrier absorbs, minus settlement deductions. Read what those deductions are before signing — escrow, plates, ELD, and insurance chargebacks vary enormously. #### You don't own a vehicle You drive the carrier's equipment. You have no capital at risk and no operating costs, and correspondingly no equity in the operation. - **You bring:** A clean MVR; The driver credentials your equipment class requires; Your time - **They cover:** The vehicle, fuel, maintenance, and insurance; Everything on the compliance and back-office side; All of the downside when freight is soft — and all of the upside when it isn't - **How you're paid:** Percentage of linehaul, per mile, or hourly depending on the carrier and the freight. Percentage is the most common arrangement in expedite. ### Path 3: Keep your authority, pay someone to dispatch you You hold your own MC number and insurance, and a dispatch service finds, negotiates, and books the freight for a percentage of the load. **Best for:** Drivers who already have authority (or are willing to get it) and would rather drive than spend the evening refreshing a load board. - **What you get:** - You keep your MC number, your safety record, and your broker relationships. The service works for you, not the other way round. - You see the rate confirmation on every load, so the percentage is verifiable rather than a claim. - Percentage-of-load pricing means the service earns nothing when you don't haul. - **What it costs you:** - You still buy your own insurance and still carry the collections risk if a broker doesn't pay. - You still need the authority first, so this does not solve the 4–8 week startup gap. - Rates run 5–10% of linehaul. At 10% on thin freight, a dispatch service can cost more than it earns you. - Quality varies wildly. A dispatcher juggling 40 trucks is a load-board proxy, not a negotiator. ## Getting authority is not the same as getting loads Your MC number goes active in 4–8 weeks. Brokers will not book you for months after that, because their onboarding platforms filter on authority age and insurance prices the same curve. This window is the hardest stretch of a new carrier's life and it is the honest reason paths 2 and 3 exist. | Authority age | What changes | |---|---| | Day 1 – 3 months | Authority is active and you are legal to haul, but most broker setup departments will decline you outright. The ones that accept a brand-new MC know they are your only option and price accordingly. Insurance is at its most expensive because you have no loss history to rate. | | 3 – 6 months | You clear the lowest common threshold and a meaningful number of brokers will set you up. Freight quality is still below market and you are competing on availability rather than on relationship. | | 6 – 12 months | Most brokers will onboard you. You have enough completed loads for a real safety record, and insurance renewal is the first one you can actually shop. | | 12 months and beyond | The better-paying brokers and shipper vendor programs open up — many use 12 months as a hard floor. This is the point where your authority stops being a liability and starts being the asset that lets you grow. | Authority age belongs to the MC number, not to you. Two years of clean driving under a carrier's authority leaves your own MC at day zero the day you file it — which is exactly why many operators run under a carrier first and then find they have not shortened the window at all, only postponed it. ## What box truck freight looks like - Partial and LTL freight that never fills a 53-foot trailer - Retail replenishment, store fixtures, and trade show freight on tight delivery windows - Appliance, furniture, and equipment deliveries requiring a liftgate and driver assist - Palletized expedite: typically 6–12 pallets in a 24–26 ft box ## Authority and compliance for a box truck A box truck spec'd at 26,000 lbs GVWR or below is non-CDL — the CDL threshold is 26,001 — which also puts it outside the federal drug and alcohol testing program, and outside IFTA, IRP, and the heavy vehicle use tax, all of which key to over 26,000 lbs. Everything else applies in full: USDOT number, MC authority for interstate for-hire work, DOT medical card, hours-of-service, DVIRs, and an annual inspection. This is the class where drivers most often assume 'no CDL' means 'no regulation'. It does not. ## Which path box truck operators actually take Box truck operators most often start on their own authority, because the barrier that pushes van drivers toward leasing on — insurance — is less decisive here relative to the truck payment. The bigger question on this equipment is whether the freight you can reach covers a payment: at typical straight-truck rates, a new-truck note leaves very little cushion, and the economics work considerably better on a used truck or at higher utilization. ## What you need for each path Paths 1 and 3 both start with your own authority, so they share a checklist. Path 2 skips all of it and replaces it with a lease or driver agreement. ### You do not need a CDL for this The commercial driver's licence threshold is 26,001 lbs GVWR, and a cargo van, a sprinter, and a box truck spec'd at 26,000 lbs all sit below it — only Class 8 crosses it. What you do need depends on which side of the 10,001 lb line your vehicle falls. | Credential | Cargo Van | Sprinter | Box Truck | Semi / Dry Van | |---|---|---|---|---| | CDL | Not required — far below the 26,001 lb threshold | Not required — far below the 26,001 lb threshold | Not required at 26,000 lbs GVWR or below; the threshold is 26,001 | Class A required — above 26,001 lbs | | DOT medical card | Not required under 10,001 lbs GVWR | Required — most builds exceed 10,001 lbs | Required | Required | | Federal drug & alcohol testing program | Not required | Not required — the program is CDL-keyed | Not required without a CDL | Required — consortium enrolment comes with the CDL | | Hours of service / DVIRs / ELD | Not required under 10,001 lbs GVWR | HOS and DVIRs required over 10,001 lbs; no ELD mandate | HOS and DVIRs required; ELD varies | All three required | | IFTA / IRP / heavy vehicle use tax | None — all three key to over 26,000 lbs | None — all three key to over 26,000 lbs | None at 26,000 lbs GVWR or below | All three apply | | Clean MVR | Every carrier and insurer will pull it | Every carrier and insurer will pull it | Every carrier and insurer will pull it | Every carrier and insurer will pull it | | Requirement | Path 1 | Path 2 | Path 3 | Detail | |---|---|---|---|---| | USDOT number | Required | — | Required | Free from FMCSA. Issued as part of registration. Brokers will not set you up without one. | | MC (operating) authority | Required | — | Required | $300 one-time FMCSA filing, then a 21-day protest period before it goes active. Required to haul regulated property for hire across state lines. | | BOC-3 process agent filing | Required | — | Required | $25–$50 through a filing service. Must be on file before authority activates. | | Liability + cargo insurance | Required | — | Required | FMCSA requires a $750k liability filing on regulated freight. Brokers routinely contract for $1M liability and $100k cargo — that higher number is a contract term, not a statute. | | Unified Carrier Registration (UCR) | Required | — | Required | Annual, roughly $46 in the smallest fleet bracket. Renews every year in the fall. | | A signed lease or driver agreement | — | Required | — | The whole deal lives here: the percentage, the escrow, the deductions, and how you get out. Read it before you sign it. | | A vehicle | Required | Required | Required | Yours on paths 1 and 3 — owned or financed, with registration and physical damage coverage. On path 2 you either bring your own and lease it on, or drive the carrier's. | | Driver credentials for your equipment class | Required | Required | Required | No CDL on any of the three equipment types here. Medical card, hours-of-service, and DVIRs depend on whether your vehicle crosses 10,001 lbs GVWR — see the table above. Every carrier and insurer will also pull your MVR. | ## Where the loads actually are Expedited freight and full-truckload freight are two different markets that share a vocabulary. Signing up for the wrong venue is the most common reason a new operator concludes there is no freight for their equipment. **For box trucks:** General load boards carry real straight-truck volume, so unlike a cargo van you are not locked out of them. Filter to 'straight truck' rather than browsing dry van and converting in your head. Partial and LTL marketplaces are the second venue worth paying for, and they reward equipment detail — liftgate, dock height, interior dimensions, pallet jack — more than any other freight type. ### Expedite networks Closed networks where expedite carriers post available capacity and trade freight with each other. This is where most cargo van and sprinter volume actually moves, and it is invisible from a general load board. Membership usually requires authority and a monthly fee. Examples: Sylectus, Expediters Online, Expedite All ### General load boards The big subscription boards carry every equipment type, but their reputation is built on dry van — which makes them the primary market for Class 8 and a much thinner side aisle for vans and straight trucks. For expedited equipment they are best used as a rate-check and a backhaul tool rather than a main venue. Examples: DAT, Truckstop, 123Loadboard ### Partial and LTL marketplaces Volume LTL and partial-truckload freight that never fills a 53-foot trailer. Straight trucks are the natural fit here, especially on retail, trade show, and appliance freight where a liftgate and a pallet jack are the whole reason you get the load. Examples: Broker partial boards, 3PL capacity portals ### Contract and dedicated freight Lanes awarded for a year rather than booked for a day, through shipper RFPs, dedicated programs, and drop-and-hook trailer pools. It pays less per mile than a hot spot load and holds its rate when the spot market falls, which is the trade. Awards go to carriers with a track record, so this is what board freight earns you rather than where you start. Examples: Shipper RFPs, 3PL dedicated programs, Drop-and-hook trailer pools ### Direct broker and shipper relationships The freight that never gets posted. A broker with a lane you have run cleanly three times will call you before they post it. This is slow to build and the single highest-margin source of loads on any equipment. Examples: Broker carrier portals, Shipper vendor programs ## Getting your first load 1. **Calculate the rate you cannot go below.** Before you look at a single load, work out your operating cost per loaded mile — total cost per mile divided by your loaded-mile share. Every rate you see afterwards gets measured against that one number instead of against how the load feels. > **Box Truck:** At $1.04/mi operating cost and 22% deadhead, your break-even is roughly $1.33 per loaded mile before your own pay — and a new-truck payment moves that number a lot. 2. **Assemble the carrier packet before you need it.** Every broker asks for the same documents: W-9, certificate of insurance naming them, signed carrier packet, MC authority letter, and voided check or factoring notice of assignment. Have them in one folder as PDFs. Setup is where first loads are lost, because the freight goes to whoever is ready first. > **Box Truck:** List your liftgate, pallet jack, and interior dimensions on the packet. Straight-truck freight is awarded on equipment specifics as much as on rate. 3. **Sign up where your equipment's freight actually posts.** Pick the venue that matches your equipment rather than the board with the best-known name. Expedited freight and full-truckload freight are two different markets that happen to share a vocabulary. > **Box Truck:** General boards do carry real straight-truck volume. Filter to 'straight truck' rather than browsing the dry-van board and mentally converting. 4. **Call on the load, and call fast.** Posted loads are seen by everyone at once. The carrier who calls within the first minutes with the MC number, the equipment, and a specific pickup time usually wins it. Have your pitch to fifteen seconds. > **Box Truck:** Lead with dock height, liftgate, and whether you'll do driver-assist unload. Half of straight-truck loads hinge on that answer. 5. **Vet the broker before you accept.** Check days-to-pay and credit score on the board, confirm the MC is active and bonded, and get the rate confirmation in writing with detention and TONU terms on it before you roll. A great rate from a broker who pays in 90 days is not a great rate. > **Box Truck:** Get detention and driver-assist terms in writing. Straight-truck freight generates far more accessorials than FTL, and unwritten ones never get paid. 6. **Turn the first load into a lane.** Deliver clean, send the paperwork the same day, and call the broker back when you're empty in their area. One completed load with a broker is worth more than a hundred board searches, because the second load from them never gets posted. > **Box Truck:** Retail and trade-show freight runs on seasonal cycles. A broker who used you in one cycle will call you in the next. ## Where Truxx.AI fits on each path ### Path 3 (Own authority + dispatch) — You already have your own MC or DOT number This is the main product. You keep your authority, your insurance, and your safety record; we find, negotiate, and book freight on the lanes you set, and you see the rate confirmation on every load. 5% of linehaul, deducted at settlement — if we don't book you, we don't get paid. **What it doesn't do:** It does not take the collections risk off your books, and it does not change your authority age. Apply in 5 minutes: https://truxx.ai/start?src=how-to-get-loads-dispatch ### Path 1 (Own authority) — You want your own authority but haven't filed yet We can help you get set up with your own MC number, then dispatch you on it once it's active. That puts you on path 1 and path 3 at the same time rather than filing alone and waiting. **What it doesn't do:** It does not shorten the FMCSA protest period, and it does not skip the months where brokers are still filtering you on authority age. Get started: https://truxx.ai/start?src=how-to-get-loads-authority ### Path 2 (Under a carrier) — You want to start driving now, without your own authority We can connect you with a carrier who can hire you. You run under their authority and their insurance, so you can be moving freight in days rather than months. **What it doesn't do:** The carrier sets the terms, not us — the pay structure, the deductions, and the agreement are theirs. Everything in path 2 above is what to read that agreement for. Get started: https://truxx.ai/start?src=how-to-get-loads-carrier ## Frequently asked questions ### How do I get loads for a box truck? Three ways: get your own MC authority and book from general load boards and partial/LTL marketplaces, lease on to an established carrier, or keep your authority and pay a dispatch service 5–10% of linehaul. Unlike cargo vans, box trucks have real volume on the general boards — filter to 'straight truck' rather than browsing the dry-van section. ### Do I need a CDL to get box truck loads? Not at 26,000 lbs GVWR or below — the CDL threshold is 26,001 lbs. A non-CDL box truck is also outside the federal drug and alcohol testing program, IFTA, IRP, and the heavy vehicle use tax. It still requires a USDOT number, MC authority for interstate for-hire work, a DOT medical card, hours-of-service compliance, DVIRs, and an annual inspection. ### What kind of freight does a box truck haul? Mostly partial and LTL freight that will not fill a 53-foot trailer: retail replenishment, store fixtures, trade show freight, appliances and furniture needing a liftgate, and palletized expedite. A 24–26 ft box typically carries 6–12 pallets. Liftgate, dock height, and whether you will do driver-assist unload decide a large share of these awards. ### Is a box truck business profitable? Operating cost runs about $0.80–$1.40 per mile before your own pay, and fuel plus insurance are the two largest lines. The decisive variable is the truck payment: at typical straight-truck rates a new-truck note leaves very little cushion, while a used truck at good utilization pencils out comfortably. Accessorials — detention, liftgate, driver assist — are a meaningful share of box truck revenue and only get paid when they are in writing. ### Why is box truck rate per mile so much higher than dry van? Because straight-truck freight is short-haul. Rate per mile rises steeply as hauls shorten, since the fixed cost of a pickup and a delivery is spread over fewer miles. A short local box truck move can print several times the dry-van per-mile rate while earning less total revenue. Compare revenue per load and average loaded miles, not per-mile figures across different haul lengths. ## Related - [How to Get Loads for a Cargo Van](https://truxx.ai/guides/how-to-get-loads/cargo-van) - [How to Get Loads for a Sprinter Van](https://truxx.ai/guides/how-to-get-loads/sprinter) - [How to Get Loads for a Semi Truck](https://truxx.ai/guides/how-to-get-loads/semi) - [Cost Per Mile Calculator](https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator) - [How to Calculate Cost Per Mile](https://truxx.ai/guides/how-to-calculate-cost-per-mile) - [DOT Inspection Prep Guide](https://truxx.ai/guides/dot-inspection-checklist) - [Truxx Freight Intelligence — booked-load rate index](https://truxx.ai/insights) - [Booked spot rates for this equipment](https://truxx.ai/insights/box-truck-spot-rates) --- Published by Truxx.AI, an AI-powered trucking dispatch platform.

Apply at https://truxx.ai/start. --- # How to Get Loads for a Semi Truck Source: https://truxx.ai/guides/how-to-get-loads/semi > There are three ways to get loads for a semi truck: get your own MC authority and book full-truckload freight from load boards and direct brokers, lease on to an established carrier and run under their authority, or keep your authority and pay a dispatch service 5–10% of linehaul. Class 8 has the deepest freight market of any equipment class — the general load boards are the venue rather than a supplement — and it also carries the heaviest compliance load: CDL, IFTA, IRP, heavy vehicle use tax, ELD, and a drug and alcohol consortium all apply. ## The three ways to get loads Every route to freight is one of these three, or a combination of them. They differ on three things: how long before you can haul, how much of the linehaul you keep, and how much of the office work is yours. | | Path 1: Own authority | Path 2: Under a carrier | Path 3: Own authority + dispatch | |---|---|---|---| | **Whose MC authority** | Yours | The carrier's | Yours | | **Until you can legally haul** | 4–8 weeks from filing | Days, once onboarding clears | 4–8 weeks, then a day or two to onboard | | **Until most brokers will set you up** | 6–12 months of authority age | Immediately — you run on the carrier's age | 6–12 months of authority age | | **Who buys the insurance** | You | The carrier, usually deducted from settlements | You | | **Who finds and negotiates the load** | You | Their dispatch | The service, on lanes you set | | **What it costs** | $300 FMCSA filing, then $9k–$17k/yr insurance for a new authority | 8–20% of linehaul, plus settlement deductions | 5–10% of linehaul, on top of your own insurance | | **Control over lanes and rates** | Full | Accept or decline only | High — you set the lanes, you approve the rate | | **Back office (invoicing, collections, IFTA)** | Yours | Theirs | Usually shared — confirm before signing | | **If a broker doesn't pay** | Your loss | The carrier's loss | Your loss | | **Whose safety record the miles build** | Yours | Theirs | Yours | ### Path 1: Get your own authority and book your own freight You register with FMCSA, buy your own insurance, and find loads yourself on load boards and through broker relationships. **Best for:** Drivers who want every dollar of the linehaul and are willing to spend 8–15 hours a week on the office side of the business. - **What you get:** - You keep 100% of the linehaul — no percentage off the top. - You pick every lane, every broker, and every rate. Nobody filters what you see. - You build your own MC number, safety score, and broker relationships, which are the assets that let you grow past one truck. - **What it costs you:** - 4–8 weeks from filing before you can legally haul, and no revenue in that window. - A brand-new authority pays the highest insurance quotes of your career — carriers under 12 months of operating history are rated as unknown risk. - You are the dispatcher, the biller, the collections department, and the compliance clerk. Most drivers underestimate this by half. - Load boards show you the same loads as everyone else, at the same moment. Winning them is a phone-speed game. ### Path 2: Run under someone else's authority You lease on to an established carrier, run under their MC number and their insurance, and take the loads their dispatch assigns you. **Best for:** Drivers who want to start hauling in days instead of months, or who can't get a workable insurance quote on their own yet. - **What you get:** - No authority to file, no FMCSA waiting period, no $9k–$17k insurance policy to buy in year one. - You can be moving freight within days of onboarding rather than in two months. - Somebody else owns the compliance, the invoicing, and the collections risk when a broker doesn't pay. - **What it costs you:** - The carrier takes a percentage of every load — commonly 8–20% of linehaul, before deductions for insurance, plates, ELD, or trailer rent. - You accept or decline what dispatch offers. You do not see the broker's rate confirmation, so you cannot verify the split. - Miles run under their MC build their safety record, not yours. Leaving means starting the authority clock from zero. - Escrow and settlement deductions vary enormously between carriers. Read the lease agreement line by line before you sign it. #### You own the vehicle, leased on Your van or truck runs under their MC number. You are still an owner-operator; what you are renting is the authority, the insurance, and the back office. - **You bring:** The vehicle, its registration, and usually physical damage coverage; Fuel, maintenance, tires, and tolls; Occupational accident coverage, in most lease agreements - **They cover:** MC authority, the liability and cargo filings, and the safety program; Invoicing, collections, and the risk when a broker doesn't pay; Broker setup — you inherit their authority age from day one - **How you're paid:** A percentage of linehaul, commonly 70–88% depending on how much the carrier absorbs, minus settlement deductions. Read what those deductions are before signing — escrow, plates, ELD, and insurance chargebacks vary enormously. #### You don't own a vehicle You drive the carrier's equipment. You have no capital at risk and no operating costs, and correspondingly no equity in the operation. - **You bring:** A clean MVR; The driver credentials your equipment class requires; Your time - **They cover:** The vehicle, fuel, maintenance, and insurance; Everything on the compliance and back-office side; All of the downside when freight is soft — and all of the upside when it isn't - **How you're paid:** Percentage of linehaul, per mile, or hourly depending on the carrier and the freight. Percentage is the most common arrangement in expedite. ### Path 3: Keep your authority, pay someone to dispatch you You hold your own MC number and insurance, and a dispatch service finds, negotiates, and books the freight for a percentage of the load. **Best for:** Drivers who already have authority (or are willing to get it) and would rather drive than spend the evening refreshing a load board. - **What you get:** - You keep your MC number, your safety record, and your broker relationships. The service works for you, not the other way round. - You see the rate confirmation on every load, so the percentage is verifiable rather than a claim. - Percentage-of-load pricing means the service earns nothing when you don't haul. - **What it costs you:** - You still buy your own insurance and still carry the collections risk if a broker doesn't pay. - You still need the authority first, so this does not solve the 4–8 week startup gap. - Rates run 5–10% of linehaul. At 10% on thin freight, a dispatch service can cost more than it earns you. - Quality varies wildly. A dispatcher juggling 40 trucks is a load-board proxy, not a negotiator. ## Getting authority is not the same as getting loads Your MC number goes active in 4–8 weeks. Brokers will not book you for months after that, because their onboarding platforms filter on authority age and insurance prices the same curve. This window is the hardest stretch of a new carrier's life and it is the honest reason paths 2 and 3 exist. | Authority age | What changes | |---|---| | Day 1 – 3 months | Authority is active and you are legal to haul, but most broker setup departments will decline you outright. The ones that accept a brand-new MC know they are your only option and price accordingly. Insurance is at its most expensive because you have no loss history to rate. | | 3 – 6 months | You clear the lowest common threshold and a meaningful number of brokers will set you up. Freight quality is still below market and you are competing on availability rather than on relationship. | | 6 – 12 months | Most brokers will onboard you. You have enough completed loads for a real safety record, and insurance renewal is the first one you can actually shop. | | 12 months and beyond | The better-paying brokers and shipper vendor programs open up — many use 12 months as a hard floor. This is the point where your authority stops being a liability and starts being the asset that lets you grow. | Authority age belongs to the MC number, not to you. Two years of clean driving under a carrier's authority leaves your own MC at day zero the day you file it — which is exactly why many operators run under a carrier first and then find they have not shortened the window at all, only postponed it. ## What semi truck freight looks like - Full truckload dry freight, typically 26,000–45,000 lbs in a 53-foot trailer - Spot market freight booked load-by-load, and contract or dedicated lanes booked by the year - Drop-and-hook programs at large shippers, where trailer pools replace live loading - Reefer, flatbed, and step deck as adjacent trailer choices on the same tractor ## Authority and compliance for a semi truck This is the class where everything applies. Over 26,000 lbs GVWR you need a Class A CDL, and the federal drug and alcohol testing program comes with it. Over 26,000 lbs also triggers IFTA fuel tax reporting, IRP apportioned plates ($1,500–$3,000/yr for 48 states), and the heavy vehicle use tax ($550/yr). ELD and hours-of-service are mandatory, annual inspection is mandatory, and FMCSA's statutory minimum is $750k primary liability — though brokers routinely contract for $1M. Class 8 is the only one of the four equipment classes on this site that owes IRP, IFTA, and HVUT. ## Which path semi truck operators actually take Class 8 is where your own authority is worth the most and where leasing on is most established, so operators genuinely split. Own authority pays best in a strong market and exposes you fully in a weak one; leasing on to a large carrier trades roughly a quarter to a third of the linehaul for freight volume, fuel discounts, and someone else carrying the insurance. Running leased-on rather than under your own authority cuts roughly $0.12/mile of cost, mostly insurance and permits the carrier absorbs — which is worth weighing against the percentage before assuming your own authority is automatically the better deal. ## What you need for each path Paths 1 and 3 both start with your own authority, so they share a checklist. Path 2 skips all of it and replaces it with a lease or driver agreement. ### What a Class 8 operator needs Semi is the one equipment class on this site where every federal requirement applies: Class A CDL, drug and alcohol consortium, DOT medical card, ELD and hours of service, plus IFTA, IRP, and the heavy vehicle use tax. The three lighter classes are shown alongside so you can see where the thresholds actually fall. | Credential | Cargo Van | Sprinter | Box Truck | Semi / Dry Van | |---|---|---|---|---| | CDL | Not required — far below the 26,001 lb threshold | Not required — far below the 26,001 lb threshold | Not required at 26,000 lbs GVWR or below; the threshold is 26,001 | Class A required — above 26,001 lbs | | DOT medical card | Not required under 10,001 lbs GVWR | Required — most builds exceed 10,001 lbs | Required | Required | | Federal drug & alcohol testing program | Not required | Not required — the program is CDL-keyed | Not required without a CDL | Required — consortium enrolment comes with the CDL | | Hours of service / DVIRs / ELD | Not required under 10,001 lbs GVWR | HOS and DVIRs required over 10,001 lbs; no ELD mandate | HOS and DVIRs required; ELD varies | All three required | | IFTA / IRP / heavy vehicle use tax | None — all three key to over 26,000 lbs | None — all three key to over 26,000 lbs | None at 26,000 lbs GVWR or below | All three apply | | Clean MVR | Every carrier and insurer will pull it | Every carrier and insurer will pull it | Every carrier and insurer will pull it | Every carrier and insurer will pull it | | Requirement | Path 1 | Path 2 | Path 3 | Detail | |---|---|---|---|---| | USDOT number | Required | — | Required | Free from FMCSA. Issued as part of registration. Brokers will not set you up without one. | | MC (operating) authority | Required | — | Required | $300 one-time FMCSA filing, then a 21-day protest period before it goes active. Required to haul regulated property for hire across state lines. | | BOC-3 process agent filing | Required | — | Required | $25–$50 through a filing service. Must be on file before authority activates. | | Liability + cargo insurance | Required | — | Required | FMCSA requires a $750k liability filing on regulated freight. Brokers routinely contract for $1M liability and $100k cargo — that higher number is a contract term, not a statute. | | Unified Carrier Registration (UCR) | Required | — | Required | Annual, roughly $46 in the smallest fleet bracket. Renews every year in the fall. | | A signed lease or driver agreement | — | Required | — | The whole deal lives here: the percentage, the escrow, the deductions, and how you get out. Read it before you sign it. | | A vehicle | Required | Required | Required | Yours on paths 1 and 3 — owned or financed, with registration and physical damage coverage. On path 2 you either bring your own and lease it on, or drive the carrier's. | | Driver credentials for your equipment class | Required | Required | Required | No CDL on any of the three equipment types here. Medical card, hours-of-service, and DVIRs depend on whether your vehicle crosses 10,001 lbs GVWR — see the table above. Every carrier and insurer will also pull your MVR. | ## Where the loads actually are Expedited freight and full-truckload freight are two different markets that share a vocabulary. Signing up for the wrong venue is the most common reason a new operator concludes there is no freight for their equipment. **For semi trucks:** Unlike the van classes, the big general boards are the market for Class 8, not a side aisle — DAT and Truckstop carry the majority of posted dry van volume. Expedite networks are largely irrelevant here. The venue worth graduating to is contract freight: shipper RFPs and dedicated lane awards, which pay less per mile than a hot spot load but hold their rate when the spot market falls. ### Expedite networks _(thin for semi trucks)_ Closed networks where expedite carriers post available capacity and trade freight with each other. This is where most cargo van and sprinter volume actually moves, and it is invisible from a general load board. Membership usually requires authority and a monthly fee. Examples: Sylectus, Expediters Online, Expedite All ### General load boards The big subscription boards carry every equipment type, but their reputation is built on dry van — which makes them the primary market for Class 8 and a much thinner side aisle for vans and straight trucks. For expedited equipment they are best used as a rate-check and a backhaul tool rather than a main venue. Examples: DAT, Truckstop, 123Loadboard ### Partial and LTL marketplaces _(thin for semi trucks)_ Volume LTL and partial-truckload freight that never fills a 53-foot trailer. Straight trucks are the natural fit here, especially on retail, trade show, and appliance freight where a liftgate and a pallet jack are the whole reason you get the load. Examples: Broker partial boards, 3PL capacity portals ### Contract and dedicated freight Lanes awarded for a year rather than booked for a day, through shipper RFPs, dedicated programs, and drop-and-hook trailer pools. It pays less per mile than a hot spot load and holds its rate when the spot market falls, which is the trade. Awards go to carriers with a track record, so this is what board freight earns you rather than where you start. Examples: Shipper RFPs, 3PL dedicated programs, Drop-and-hook trailer pools ### Direct broker and shipper relationships The freight that never gets posted. A broker with a lane you have run cleanly three times will call you before they post it. This is slow to build and the single highest-margin source of loads on any equipment. Examples: Broker carrier portals, Shipper vendor programs ## Getting your first load 1. **Calculate the rate you cannot go below.** Before you look at a single load, work out your operating cost per loaded mile — total cost per mile divided by your loaded-mile share. Every rate you see afterwards gets measured against that one number instead of against how the load feels. > **Semi / Dry Van:** At $1.40/mi operating cost and 17% deadhead, your break-even is roughly $1.69 per loaded mile before your own pay. Add $5,000/month over 8,000 miles and it lands near $2.45 — close enough to the spot average that the cost side is where the margin is. 2. **Assemble the carrier packet before you need it.** Every broker asks for the same documents: W-9, certificate of insurance naming them, signed carrier packet, MC authority letter, and voided check or factoring notice of assignment. Have them in one folder as PDFs. Setup is where first loads are lost, because the freight goes to whoever is ready first. > **Semi / Dry Van:** Have your IFTA licence, IRP cab card, and annual inspection in the folder too. Class 8 setup asks for more paperwork than any other class, and a missing HVUT Form 2290 stamp will hold you up. 3. **Sign up where your equipment's freight actually posts.** Pick the venue that matches your equipment rather than the board with the best-known name. Expedited freight and full-truckload freight are two different markets that happen to share a vocabulary. > **Semi / Dry Van:** The general boards are the market here, not a supplement — start on DAT or Truckstop. Skip the expedite networks entirely; they are built for van freight. 4. **Call on the load, and call fast.** Posted loads are seen by everyone at once. The carrier who calls within the first minutes with the MC number, the equipment, and a specific pickup time usually wins it. Have your pitch to fifteen seconds. > **Semi / Dry Van:** Lead with your current location, your empty time, and whether you can take a drop-and-hook. On dry van the broker is solving a scheduling problem, and availability wins more loads than a lower rate. 5. **Vet the broker before you accept.** Check days-to-pay and credit score on the board, confirm the MC is active and bonded, and get the rate confirmation in writing with detention and TONU terms on it before you roll. A great rate from a broker who pays in 90 days is not a great rate. > **Semi / Dry Van:** Your fuel outlay on a 900-mile run is real money before anyone pays you. Check days-to-pay against your cash reserve, and factor the load if the gap is wider than you can carry. 6. **Turn the first load into a lane.** Deliver clean, send the paperwork the same day, and call the broker back when you're empty in their area. One completed load with a broker is worth more than a hundred board searches, because the second load from them never gets posted. > **Semi / Dry Van:** Board freight is where you build the record that gets you contract and dedicated lanes. Those pay less per mile than a hot spot load and hold their rate when the spot market falls — that trade is the whole Class 8 growth path. ## Where Truxx.AI fits on each path ### Path 3 (Own authority + dispatch) — You already have your own MC or DOT number This is the main product. You keep your authority, your insurance, and your safety record; we find, negotiate, and book freight on the lanes you set, and you see the rate confirmation on every load. 5% of linehaul, deducted at settlement — if we don't book you, we don't get paid. **What it doesn't do:** It does not take the collections risk off your books, and it does not change your authority age. Apply in 5 minutes: https://truxx.ai/start?src=how-to-get-loads-dispatch ### Path 1 (Own authority) — You want your own authority but haven't filed yet We can help you get set up with your own MC number, then dispatch you on it once it's active. That puts you on path 1 and path 3 at the same time rather than filing alone and waiting. **What it doesn't do:** It does not shorten the FMCSA protest period, and it does not skip the months where brokers are still filtering you on authority age. Get started: https://truxx.ai/start?src=how-to-get-loads-authority ### Path 2 (Under a carrier) — You want to start driving now, without your own authority We can connect you with a carrier who can hire you. You run under their authority and their insurance, so you can be moving freight in days rather than months. **What it doesn't do:** The carrier sets the terms, not us — the pay structure, the deductions, and the agreement are theirs. Everything in path 2 above is what to read that agreement for. Get started: https://truxx.ai/start?src=how-to-get-loads-carrier ## Frequently asked questions ### How do I get loads for my semi truck? Three ways: get your own MC authority and book from load boards and direct brokers, lease on to an established carrier and run under their authority, or keep your authority and pay a dispatch service 5–10% of linehaul. For Class 8 the general load boards — DAT, Truckstop — are the primary venue rather than a supplement, and contract or dedicated lanes are what you graduate to once you have a track record. ### Do I need my own authority to haul with a semi truck? No. Leasing on to an established carrier is a well-established path in Class 8 and cuts roughly $0.12 per mile of cost, mostly insurance and permits the carrier absorbs, in exchange for a percentage of linehaul. Running under your own authority pays more in a strong market and exposes you fully in a weak one. Either way you need a Class A CDL, a DOT medical card, and enrolment in a drug and alcohol testing consortium. ### What is the best load board for semi trucks? DAT carries the largest volume of posted dry van freight, with Truckstop the main alternative; most owner-operators with their own authority run at least one of them. Boards are where you start. The higher-margin freight is contract and dedicated work awarded through shipper RFPs and direct broker relationships, which is never posted — that is what a track record on the boards buys you. ### How much do dry van loads pay per mile? National dry van spot averaged roughly $2.41 per loaded mile in early 2026. Against that, an owner-operator's operating cost runs $1.15–$1.85 per total mile before their own pay, which puts break-even near $2.14–$2.99 per loaded mile at 17% deadhead once $5,000/month of driver pay is added. The upper half of that cost range does not clear on spot freight, which is why utilization and deadhead matter more than chasing the top rate. ### Is it better to lease on or get your own authority? It depends on the market and on how much office work you want. Own authority keeps 100% of the linehaul and builds an MC number, a safety record, and broker relationships you own — but you carry insurance, collections risk, and the 6–12 month window where brokers will not book a new authority. Leasing on removes all of that for roughly a quarter to a third of the linehaul, and the miles build the carrier's record rather than yours. ## Related - [How to Get Loads for a Cargo Van](https://truxx.ai/guides/how-to-get-loads/cargo-van) - [How to Get Loads for a Sprinter Van](https://truxx.ai/guides/how-to-get-loads/sprinter) - [How to Get Loads for a Box Truck](https://truxx.ai/guides/how-to-get-loads/box-truck) - [Cost Per Mile Calculator](https://truxx.ai/tools/cost-per-mile-calculator) - [How to Calculate Cost Per Mile](https://truxx.ai/guides/how-to-calculate-cost-per-mile) - [DOT Inspection Prep Guide](https://truxx.ai/guides/dot-inspection-checklist) - [Truxx Freight Intelligence — booked-load rate index](https://truxx.ai/insights) - [Booked spot rates for this equipment](https://truxx.ai/insights/dry-van-spot-rates) --- Published by Truxx.AI, an AI-powered trucking dispatch platform.

One at $2.16 per mile pays $2,372. Rate per mile falls as hauls get longer while revenue per load rises — so sorting a load board by RPM selects your lowest-paying freight. What 52,000 booked loads reveal about how freight is priced. ## Key findings - Rate per mile falls as haul length rises, on every equipment type measured. - Revenue per load rises as haul length rises. - Therefore the loads with the highest rate per mile pay the least total money. - Sorting a load board by rate per mile selects the lowest-revenue freight. - A rate per mile is only comparable to another rate per mile at a similar haul length. > On the Truxx.AI network, box truck rate per mile falls from $6.03/mi on under 150 mi lanes to $2.16/mi on 800+ mi lanes, while average revenue per load rises from $717 to $2,372. The loads with the highest rate per mile pay the least total money. ## The data ### Box Truck — rate per mile by lane length (2025-Q3–2026-Q2) | Lane length | Loads | Avg RPM (mileage-weighted) | Avg revenue per load | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Under 150 mi | 2,185 | $6.03/mi | $717 | | 150–300 mi | 3,211 | $4.16/mi | $860 | | 300–500 mi | 611 | $3.03/mi | $1,094 | | 500–800 mi | 171 | $2.36/mi | $1,408 | | 800+ mi | 105 | $2.16/mi | $2,372 | ### Sprinter — rate per mile by lane length (2025-Q3–2026-Q2) | Lane length | Loads | Avg RPM (mileage-weighted) | Avg revenue per load | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Under 150 mi | 183 | $2.56/mi | $333 | | 150–300 mi | 794 | $1.82/mi | $409 | | 300–500 mi | 113 | $1.36/mi | $542 | | 500–800 mi | 25 | $1.10/mi | $758 | | 800+ mi | 229 | $0.93/mi | $1,308 | Sprinters show the same shape at completely different absolute levels: $2.56/mi down to $0.93/mi, with revenue per load climbing from $333 to $1,308. The pattern also holds for dry van and cargo van — every equipment type with enough published lanes to test. ## Why this happens Every load carries fixed costs that are independent of distance — loading, unloading, paperwork, detention, and the deadhead to the pickup. Those costs are amortized over 100 miles on a short run and over 800 miles on a long one, so short loads must price higher per mile. A high rate per mile is usually a signal that a load is short, not that it is well paid. ## Implications for carriers - Rate per mile is meaningful only against your own cost per mile on comparable lanes. - Compare per-mile rates within a haul-length band; $4.00/mi is strong at 400 miles and poor at 40. - Revenue per day is the operative metric, then revenue per load, then revenue per mile. - This is why the Truxx.AI index headlines a mileage-weighted average (total revenue ÷ total loaded miles) rather than a per-load median. Box truck's per-load median is higher than its mileage-weighted average because short, high-per-mile runs each count once in a median, while mileage weighting lets long hauls dominate the denominator. ## Methodology Figures are computed from booked loads on the Truxx.AI dispatch network: status delivered, US origin and destination, at least 25 loaded miles, and rate per mile between $0.50 and $30 to exclude micro-moves and data-entry errors. Only closed quarters are published, and a published quarter is immutable. Lane-level cuts aggregate a trailing four-quarter window so thin slices stay credible.

Dry van looks like it's up 57% — it isn't. What 6,422 booked loads say about the market this quarter, and the one rule that decides whether any per-mile rate means anything. ## Summary > Booked-load rates by equipment type on the Truxx.AI dispatch network for 2026-Q2, computed from 6,422 delivered loads. Box truck — the largest sample at 2,965 loads — averaged $3.09/mi mileage-weighted ($1,224 per load at 396 average loaded miles), +8.3% quarter over quarter. ## 2026-Q2 rates by equipment type | Equipment | Loads | Avg RPM (mileage-weighted) | Avg revenue per load | Avg loaded miles | QoQ | YoY | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Box Truck | 2,965 | $3.09/mi | $1,224 | 396 | +8.3% | +27.1% | | Sprinter | 1,753 | $1.20/mi | $895 | 749 | +8.4% | +6.8% | | Cargo Van | 771 | $1.31/mi | $691 | 526 | +6.8% | +5.8% | | Dry Van | 641 | $3.35/mi | $1,533 | 458 | +18.4% | +56.7% | | Flatbed | 133 | $3.48/mi | $2,417 | 694 | +19.8% | +28.1% | | Hotshot | 91 | $3.81/mi | $1,233 | 324 | +61.5% | +61.4% | | Step Deck * | 37 | $3.43/mi | $2,687 | 783 | +13.0% | +18.0% | | Reefer * | 31 | $4.32/mi | $1,565 | 362 | +18.3% | +94.1% | \* Fewer than 50 loads — published for completeness, too thin to read a trend into. ## How to read these numbers Rate per mile falls as haul length rises, so a high per-mile figure usually indicates short freight rather than strong pricing. Always read the average-loaded-miles column alongside the rate, and compare per-mile rates only within a similar haul length. ## Important caveats before citing - **This is a network index, not a national one.** Box trucks, sprinters, and cargo vans make up the large majority of Truxx.AI volume. The mix runs shorter and prices higher per mile than the national truckload market. Absolute levels will not match DAT or Truckstop benchmarks and are not intended to. - **Do not cite the dry van year-over-year figure as a market move.** Dry van has fallen from roughly 36% of network volume in 2021 to about 10%, and its average haul shortened materially. The apparent increase reflects a change in the composition of that book — shedding longer-haul truckload while retaining short, expedited freight — not a repricing of the dry van market. National dry van spot rates did not rise by a comparable amount. - **Hotshot's quarterly change is likewise a haul-length artifact**, with average distance collapsing roughly a third over the quarter on a small sample. - **Box truck is the most credible trend in this dataset**, because its average trip length stayed essentially flat across the run while its rate rose — the signature of genuine pricing power rather than mix shift. - Equipment marked with an asterisk, and any equipment absent from the table, lacks the sample size to support a claim. ## Methodology Figures are computed from booked loads on the Truxx.AI dispatch network: status delivered, US origin and destination, at least 25 loaded miles, and rate per mile between $0.50 and $30 to exclude micro-moves and data-entry errors.
