leasing vs. o/o
#21
Lockport -- The underwriter issue is true in the U.S. too. If a carrier goes belly up, guys who are leasing or lease-purchasing stand to lose "their" rig and all the dreams and money they've put into it. Thanks for bringing that up; it's an often overlooked part of lease agreements.

I know I saw it, but can't find it again. There was a discussion about people that act as fleet managers for a fee. The discussed fee was $80.00 for one guy, and someone else chimed in with a $45.00? fee. The common item was the business entity that was doing this service. Most seemed to agree that one in particular was a well run business. .....And that business name and phone number was?.......

I don't recall any discussion with the fees you mentioned, but I think that you are talking about a dispatch service. Those are either a flat fee or percentage of the load. The dispatch service hunts for loads that meet your criteria and handles all paperwork.

You may try doing a search for dispatch services. I don't recall the thread where it was discussed. There is a chance that it was discussed on more than one thread. If you have specific questions you could pose them on this thread if you don't find what you want when you do your search.
