Amazon will provide trucks to you without down payment and cover all planned and most unplanned maintenance. We will also cover all tolls and fuel costs.
If you decide to operate under your own authority, you may use a freight broker to find loads to haul. Freight brokers can connect owner-operators to shippers. They also help determine load rates, times and locations. Using a broker saves owner-operators the work of tracking down their own freight.
