WHAT WE DO FOR POWER ONLY CARRIERS

Power only is one of the fastest-growing segments in trucking. We connect you with brokers and shippers who have loaded trailers waiting for a truck to move them.

πŸ”

POWER ONLY LOAD SOURCING

We source power only loads from brokers and shippers who provide the trailer. You show up, hook up, and haul. No trailer purchase, maintenance, or insurance needed.

πŸ’°

RATE NEGOTIATION

Just because you're not providing the trailer doesn't mean you should accept lower rates. We negotiate aggressively to get you the best revenue per mile on every power only load.

πŸ›‘οΈ

BROKER VETTING

We verify every broker's credit, payment history, and trailer condition standards before booking. Your money β€” and your truck β€” are protected on every load.

πŸ—ΊοΈ

SMART LANE PLANNING

We plan your loads to minimize deadhead and keep you in high-demand markets. Strategic lane planning means less empty driving and more loaded miles.

πŸ“‹

FULL BACK-OFFICE

Rate confirmations, trailer interchange agreements, BOLs, invoicing β€” we handle every document so you can focus on driving.

πŸ“ž

24/7 SUPPORT

Trailer issues at pickup? Scheduling changes? Your dispatcher is one call away β€” day or night β€” to handle any situation that comes up on the road.

Why Power Only?

ADVANTAGES OF POWER ONLY TRUCKING

Power only is an incredible opportunity for owner-operators who want to maximize profit while minimizing overhead costs and risk.

πŸ’² No Trailer Costs

Skip the $30,000-$60,000 trailer purchase. No trailer payments, no trailer insurance, no registration fees. Your only investment is your truck.

πŸ”§ Zero Trailer Maintenance

Tires, brakes, lights, ABS systems β€” trailer maintenance is the broker's or shipper's problem. You save thousands per year in repair and upkeep costs.

πŸš€ Faster Startup

Already have a truck but no trailer? Power only lets you start earning immediately. No waiting to find and finance the right trailer.

πŸ“ˆ Higher Profit Margins

Lower overhead means more of each dollar goes into your pocket. Many power only operators report higher net profit percentages than traditional owner-operators.

Common Questions

POWER ONLY DISPATCH FAQ

What exactly is power only trucking?
Power only means you provide just the truck (the "power unit") while the broker or shipper provides a loaded trailer. You hook up to their trailer, deliver it, and drop it β€” no need to own or maintain a trailer yourself.
Do I need special insurance for power only?
You'll need standard commercial auto liability and cargo insurance. Some brokers may require trailer interchange coverage, which protects against damage to their trailer while it's in your possession. We can help you understand what coverage you need.
How do power only rates compare to regular loads?
Power only rates are generally comparable to standard dry van rates on the same lanes. While you don't get a "trailer premium," your net profit is often higher because you have zero trailer overhead β€” no payments, insurance, maintenance, or registration.

What if the broker's trailer is in bad condition?
Always do a thorough pre-trip inspection before hooking up. If the trailer has safety issues β€” bad tires, broken lights, DOT violations β€” you have every right to refuse the load. Your dispatcher will help coordinate a resolution or find you a different load.
Can I switch between power only and pulling my own trailer?
Absolutely. If you later purchase a trailer, we can dispatch you on both power only loads and standard loads. Many of our carriers run power only when it's convenient and pull their own trailer when rates are better.
Is there a contract or commitment?
No contracts. 5% of gross, no upfront costs, no minimums. Power only is all about flexibility β€” and so is our dispatch service.
