Landstar System – “Hard to get customer freight due to high operating cost.”

Pros

You are your own boss and can work from home.

Cons

It is hard (next to impossible) to get freight from customers because of how much it costs to move a Landstar truck. If you DO end up getting some freight, who knows if you will even be able to find a driver to haul the freight for you. The BCOs are very reliable when they do take your freight, but you can hardly even get a driver to do something for you unless it's paying big bucks.

Advice to Senior Management

Offer agents a base salary instead of commission only.
