Lane Details

We're looking for local carriers in the Lakewood, WA area to run a dedicated Power Only lane for our customer. This is a drop and hook operation — you pick up a pre-loaded trailer, deliver it, and drop it off. No waiting at docks, no live loading or unloading.

The commodity is empty pallets weighing 25,000-30,000 lbs. Light loads, easy freight, all local runs. You'll average 3-5 loads per day depending on when you start and how efficiently you run your routes.

This is 24/7 consistent work. There's freight available every day of the year. You choose which days you want to work and what time you want to start. End your day and be home every single night.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions? We've got answers. If you can't find what you're looking for, feel free to contact us.

What equipment do I need for this lane?

You need a Power Only unit — a tractor without a trailer. All trailers are provided at the customer facilities. This is a drop and hook operation, so you pick up a pre-loaded trailer at point A and drop it at point B. No live loading or unloading.

How many loads can I run per day?

Carriers on this lane average 3-5 loads per day depending on your start time and route efficiency. All loads are local to the Lakewood, WA area, so runs are short with quick turnarounds.

Can I choose which days I work?

Yes. This lane operates 24/7, 365 days a year. You choose the days you want to work in a row and your preferred start time. Work 5 days, 6 days, or whatever fits your life. Need a day off? Just let us know in advance.

How much can I realistically earn?

Most carriers average $700-$800 per day. Top performers — those who start early, run efficiently, and maximize loads — consistently make $900-$1,100 per day. Pay is based on loaded miles, fuel surcharge (FSC), and deadhead combined.

Is this truly home daily?

Yes. All routes are local to the Lakewood, WA area. You start your day, run your loads, and you're home every single night. No overnight runs, no weeks on the road.

How does dispatch work?

All loads are scheduled and dispatched through a dedicated platform. You log in, see your assigned loads for the day, run them, and upload your PODs (proof of delivery) when complete. We handle all invoicing, billing, and collections for a flat $250/month dispatch fee.

How fast can I start?

Most carriers go from application to their first load within 24-48 hours. Apply today, we verify your info and set you up on the dispatch platform, and you can start running loads as early as tomorrow.

What's the weight of the loads?
