Good luck. Ive been tryin for 2 years to make a name for myself and the companies ive talked to they laugh at ya when you want to haul for em and use your trailer. I can see their point though you have a trailer and you COULD go to their resources and undercut the rates and take their business away from em. I wish you the best of luck. But from guys Ive hauled for you gotta have a minimum of $500,000 cargo and then your other insurance.

cargo insurance if i were you HARTFORD LIVESTOCK alot of ppl wont load you without it, as far as contacts, well u could use this board so i suggest getting in with somebody right in your own backyard to see about just picking up extra loads they may have

why not buy your own, smart idea because there is so much extra livestock out there right now for everyone to haul   we need more trucks.
