Owner-Operators

Owner-operators are individuals or small business owners who operate their own commercial vehicles, such as trucks or trucks with trailers, and own the equipment they use. They typically contract directly with shipping companies or freight brokers to transport goods, managing their own schedules, maintenance, and expenses. This setup allows them flexibility and independence, as they control their operations, but they also bear the responsibilities and costs associated with vehicle ownership and business management. Owner-operators are common in industries like trucking and logistics, providing vital transportation services while maintaining entrepreneurial control over their work.
