Question I am interested in doing Hot Shot Hauling for myself. Can you give me any info. I live in Central Texas and would like work in this area. Thanks Willie
Answer Hi Willie.
A lot of guys make good money hauling for oil rigs in your area with Hot Shots. Call some local load brokers or go to www.expeditorsonline.com for info. If not, you can always haul cars. Find a auto transport company in your area and maybe you can lease out. Or, you can hit local auction houses up and haul under your own Authority.
