Lease on · Kent, WA

The split, and every deduction, before you sign.

You already know what a bad lease looks like — a good percentage on paper and a settlement full of lines nobody will explain. Here is the split, here are every one of the deductions, and here is the statement you'll get every week.

The arrangement

Four numbers. If a recruiter anywhere else won't give you all four on the first call, that is the answer.

Your split
90%
of the linehaul on every load. You see the rate confirmation, so you can check the math on any load you haul.
Fuel surcharge
100%
passes through to you. We don't keep a slice of FSC — it exists to cover your fuel, not to pad ours.
Typical gross
$150K-$250K
a year, working out to roughly $2.50-$3.50 a mile depending on the lanes you take.
Sign-on
$2,500
for owner-operators, paid on the schedule we'll put in writing before you sign anything.

Every deduction, before you sign

This is the part most carriers make you find out about on your third settlement. There are four, and only the ones you actually use appear on your statement.

Insurance
Occupational accident and physical damage, at our fleet rate — usually below what an individual can buy.
Escrow
Held against damage and shortages, refundable when you leave in good standing. The balance shows on every settlement.
Fuel card
Optional. Our discount at the pump, deducted at cost — we do not mark it up.
Trailer rental
Only if you use ours. Bring your own and this line doesn't exist.

You get the same screen we do

Settlements run in our own system, LoadOff. Each one lists the loads, the linehaul, the fuel surcharge, and every deduction as its own line — not one lump sum labelled “expenses.” Your escrow balance is on there too, every week, so you always know what you'd get back.

Straight answers

Is there forced dispatch?

No. You see the load, the rate, and the lane before you accept it. Turning one down doesn't cost you your place in line — if it did, the 90% split wouldn't mean much.

How often do I get paid, and how fast?

Weekly settlements. If you want it faster on a specific load, ask about advances — we'll tell you the fee up front rather than burying it in a deduction.

What do I need to lease on?

A valid CDL, 2 years OTR experience, your own tractor with current registration and inspection, and the insurance we'll walk you through. We run flatbed, reefer, and dry van across 48 states.

Can I see a real settlement statement before I commit?

Yes — ask and we'll show you a real one with the numbers changed. Anyone who won't show you the statement before you sign is telling you something.

Do you offer lease-purchase?

Talk to us directly. We'd rather have that conversation on the phone with real numbers for your situation than publish terms that turn out not to apply to you.
