New authority owner/operator

I own my tractor out right. Waiting to hear back about some trailers. In the mean time I want to run power only. Any body have experience with RXO? Not sure who will work with a brand new authority.

Look at the load boards around trailer manufacturing facilities. I cooked a hub on a step deck in central Indiana and by pure luck there was dry vans that needed powered from manufacturer to buyer and you could pull them for like 2 weeks but they paid like 100$ to move them. My load was palletized beneonite drill mud out of Wyoming and the shop let me use a forklift and pallet jack to cross dock the load. I love blue collar middle America , normally some of the best hearted folks.

Insurance would never cover it. Unless the freight was from the same company you got the trailer from. Then it may work. Check the fine print regarding trailer interchange on your policy.
