Your week

Local runs work out of the Kent yard. You’re home every day, and you sleep in your own bed.

  • No forced loads.
  • Paid every week by direct deposit.
An empty dispatch desk at night, a phone on the desk and a truck yard through the window.

Run your own numbers

Pick a schedule and set your miles. It’s $0.65 a mile times what you run, so every figure is an estimate: the freight decides the week.

How it works here

  1. Pick your freight

    Nobody forces a load on you. Freight comes from the DAT board and direct shippers.

  2. Call Kent

    You call Kent, not a call center. The dispatcher knows your name and your lane.

  3. Get paid

    Every week, direct deposit. Owner-operators: the settlement matches the rate con.

Questions drivers ask us

Is the 90% in writing?

Yes. Owner-operators keep 90% of gross in writing, and every weekly settlement matches the rate confirmation.

Do you force loads?

No. Nobody here gets forced onto a load, and owner-operators pick their own from the DAT board and direct shippers.

Who answers at night?

Dispatch in Kent, days, nights, and weekends. Direct line, no call center.

How fast is pay?

Weekly. Company drivers get direct deposit every week, and owner-operator settlements come weekly and match the rate confirmation.

What trucks are on the yard?

2023–2025 Freightliner Cascadias and Volvo VNLs, with collision mitigation and lane-keep. Sleepers have an APU, inverter, and fridge.

What do owner-⁠operators keep?

90% of the gross load rate. New owner-operators also get a $2,500 sign-on: $1,250 after the first completed load and $1,250 at 90 days, with no clawback.
