I would like to find out more about the trucking industry.  Specifically in regards to owning trucks for use by transportation/delivery companies.


Thanks

I've spent many years in the trucking business, mostly heavier units, but have some knowledge.  Inquiry is a bit broad, what are you looking to do with the trucks, which sorta dictates what you need to look at?

Hi Wendell,


 


Same question: It's very broad.  What in particular are you in search of?  I have contacts, but would like to narrow it down first to assure, I'm getting you to the right people.


 


Thanks,


Greg

ok, am considering buying a business that owns a contract with a company using the trucks that he owns but does not drive.  Am conserned as to what to look out for .  Do I worry about the trend towards making owners employees of the company?  How do I determine if the compensation is adequate?  How do I find out if a contract is transferable?  What is the current trend in this business?


The trucks are less 5 years old with one being a lease.


Thanks


Wendell



Wendell:  Give me a call.  I sent you the number.  I think this may be a better topic for a conversation if you want.  Still need details to get the picture. although I think I have hunch where you're going here.
