So let’s say you have it all worked out really well! You have an organized business plan and a reasonable budget to work with! You have the desire, and you can turn owning and operating your own truck into a long-term, rewarding career.
Now, that is all good and well, but there are quite few miscellaneous or not that miscellaneous things that people often overlook and don’t pay attention to, until something start feeling wrong.
Yup, I guess you know already what I am speaking about! It is the trucking expenses that come together with the joy of owning your own business and being your own boss!
It’s not the out of pocket trucking expenses that should get you all worried! You know, I am speaking about the entertainment, meals, accommodations, and so on. Even though these costs can add up to more than $10,000 a year!
The crazy part is they’re only some of the things on the pile of all those other additional costs. Believe me when I say, they will add up with every mile when you hit the road, and can soon blow your mind and wallet!
