About the work Transam Carriers is a Toronto-based asset carrier — 120+ trucks, our own customs desk and a cross-dock in Concord. We are adding owner operators to our D1 East Coast LTL and express operation.
This is heavy LTL . Multi-stop, time-sensitive freight down the eastern seaboard, moving through our own dock. It is not one-pick one-drop truckload work, and it does not suit someone learning LTL for the first time.
The deal, plainly You earn 75% of the load revenue.
We front the things that are easier to buy at fleet scale, and deduct them from your settlement:
Fuel card
Toll transponder
Insurance
Trailer
Plates and permits
Beyond that, the truck is yours and so are its costs. You are running a business, not collecting a wage — that is the trade, and it is why the number is what it is.
What that has actually paid. Over the last six months the median D1 owner operator grossed about $6,400 a week , running roughly two trips and about 1,600 miles. That is real settlement data from our own trucks, gross before your costs — not a recruiting headline. Ask us to walk you through a real week when we speak.
What you bring Verifiable LTL experience — this is a requirement, not a preference. Multi-stop, multi-customer freight is a different job from truckload and we hire for it.
Your own tractor, in positive mechanical condition and able to pass inspection
AZ licence with clean abstract and CVOR
FAST card, or eligibility to obtain one
Cross-border experience and a clean criminal record for US entry
Minimum 2 years verifiable driving experience
Comfort with physical, hands-on freight handling
Before you apply Bring your questions about the percentage, what each deduction actually costs, fuel surcharge treatment and expected weekly miles. We would rather answer them on the first call than have you discover the answers in month two.
