Everything you need to know about the Owner-Operators trucking business
A big rig on the highway with a driver who owns it, is an owner-operator driver, someone who doesn’t just drive for a company but actually runs their own small trucking business.
An owner and operator is both the driver and the business owner. They find loads, negotiate rates, manage fuel costs, handle maintenance, and take home the profits. In other words, they’re a one-person logistics company on wheels.
