Bolt Courier Logistics

From the port to the customer 💫

Working overtime to keep the customers happy is important. When someone needs something delivered (usually the customer) it’s important to arrive on time and with the proper paperwork.

Port work food edition 💫

Containers carry so many different items, you never know what you will get. This load is for a food production company that uses containers. This is one of the best industries you can use your truck to haul products for.

Finding work for your cargo van and box trucks isn’t that hard 💫

There are a ton of load boards and apps that can help you put your vehicle to work. GoShare is a great app that provides you the opportunity to find work in most states and major cities.

Peak Season Is Almost Here 💫

Package delivery and courier services are going to start back looking for people with cargo vans and box trucks….

Do not forget to look out for companies that need the extra help.

Her are some of the benefits:
1. You get to set your own schedule
2. You can make as much money as you want depending on how hard you work
3. You choose your own workload everyday.. If you want to get a small load and get off earlier during the day you can.

Before you commit to a large insurance down payment, please make sure you know what you want to do business wise 💫

Often times, to many people buy large insurance policies that they will never need. Please research if your going to do package delivery, expediting, food distribution routes, and etc.

Some of these industries don’t require large insurance policies especially for a cargo van or box truck. Call around and narrow down what you will be doing and the insurance that will be required before purchasing a policy.

When you rush and purchase a policy, you might not be able to cancel your policy without being penalized with fees and other expensive requirements.

Do not make it harder than what it has to be…

The weather is horrible but we are still getting rolling for the semi trucks today. The awesome thing about containers is that the port will usually be open no matter the weather. They also have flexible schedules to help you be able to pick up and drop off containers or whatever else you may be carrying.

Are interested in getting started in the container industry?

Stop jumping out there without a solid plan 🚛

Usually everyone’s first goal is to have multiple trucks, trailers, equipment, and etc. How can you have multiple assets but no real plan on how to use them to make money?

It’s not about starting out with more but a solid goal. Build one at a time using a solid system and then replicate that system to avoid losing money. If you know how to make money using one cargo van replicate the process and go from their as opposed to buying multiple vehicles and not knowing how your going to use them to make money. This will save you a lot of time and heartache.

Also, save money and don’t jump out spending tens of thousands of dollars when you don’t know what your doing.. This makes the process way harder than it needs to be.

The trucking industry will allow you to travel and expand to different states 🚛

When times get hard you have to remember where you started. Don’t give up but adapt and change up your business model until it allows you to work for yourself, choose your own hours, or do anything else that you may desire.

After touring over 40 states... This industry is still the one that I recommended to everyone no matter what.

What’s stopping you from getting started or growing?

Insurance shouldn’t stop you from starting or growing your business 💫

You have to shop around in order to get good rates. Don’t let insurance stand in your way. There are a ton of companies that work with new trucking businesses you just have to find them.
