Ok, Well if what you are wanting to do is "Hot Shot" type loads you need to have at least a 35' deck. That's the lower deck not counting the upper.

We ship allot of Industrial Conditioners out of here (Utah) and a full load is about 10K max weight, We have SEVERAL locations that we ship out of and one of our major locations is in Dallas.

Let me know if you decide to step up, be aware you will need the full DOT treatment.

If you want to give me a call I can get your info, fax you a copy of our carrier pack (required info) so you will have something to look at.

Call and price "commercial" insurance. You may change your mind. Good luck.

This is a true statement. However, you may be able to hook up with a local trucking company and use their authority, ins etc. They will of course take a % of every load but that may be a good way to get started with little out of pocket expense.

I have a 3rd party policy, load insurance, so it covers my load for up to $2 Million. Its not that much either.

I do not know the CORRECT name of it but it is what it is, load insurance.

Zukgod1, u got things in the Northeast? I was getting into the hauling thing before the accident. I already have all the info, n contacts via ooida, I was a o/o before with a freightliner classic so im familliar with the requirements n such. I just wish I could find a contract like these guys hauling a/c units, and hot tubs!
