Start a New Trucking Business
Start your trucking business without guessing at step one.
Authority, insurance, compliance filings, a load board, a bank account, an invoice that brokers will actually pay. There is a right order to all of it, and doing it out of order costs money you have not made yet.
What you get
-
The right order
What to form, what to file, what to buy and what can safely wait — sequenced so one step does not block the next.
-
Day-one systems
How you find loads, send a rate confirmation, invoice, and get paid. The parts nobody mentions until the first load is delivered.
-
Someone to ask
A real person on the phone, seven days a week, instead of a forum thread from four years ago at midnight.
How we work through it
- Where you are todayDo you have an entity? A truck? A CDL driver? Insurance quotes? We start from what already exists, not from a template.
- The checklistYour filings, your insurance, your accounts and your compliance calendar, written down so you can see what is done and what is next.
- Your first loadsLoad board setup, broker packets, rate confirmations, invoicing and getting paid. This is where most new authorities stall.
This is a fit if you
- Are thinking about your own authority
- Have a truck but no MC number
- Have driven for someone else for years
- Formed an LLC and then stopped
- Are not sure which filings apply to you
- Want to dispatch your own trucks
Questions people actually ask
Do you file my authority for me?
We walk you through the process, explain what each filing is for, and make sure nothing gets missed. Filings are made in your name and you are responsible for the accuracy of what is submitted. For tax, permit and legal questions, use a qualified professional — we will tell you when you have reached one.
Is this the same as the dispatcher course?
No. The training courses teach you to dispatch. This is help standing the business up around it. Plenty of people do both, and they fit together well.
How long until I am hauling?
Mostly it comes down to insurance and FMCSA processing time, and we control neither. What we can do is make sure you are not the reason for the delay.
Get your carrier off the ground
Tell us where you are in the process and we will tell you honestly what is left. Tracy office open 7 days, 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM Pacific.
Awahe Inc. provides training and business setup guidance. We are not a law firm, accounting firm, insurance agency or licensed compliance service, and we do not provide advice on taxes, permits or legal compliance — you are responsible for consulting qualified professionals on those matters. Registration timelines and approvals are set by the FMCSA and by your insurer, and are outside our control.
