Local Class A Day Cab Owner Operator
About The Position
RAS Logistics is seeking independent contract carriers for local Class A day cab routes hauling building and home improvement materials on flatbed equipment. Routes are typically 100–150 miles with 7–12 stops per day and do not involve over-the-road driving. Freight is available Monday through Saturday, and routes are driver-only. Contractors choose which offered routes to accept. The posting reports average gross settlements of $700 per full route day, plus fuel surcharge, based on contractors completing a full route day across all RAS Flats locations over the prior six months. Earnings vary by location, routes accepted, stops, and distance, and are not guaranteed. These amounts are gross revenue before business expenses such as fuel, insurance, and maintenance. Applicable trailer rental fees are deducted from settlements; rental may be available through RAS. Settlements are weekly. This is an independent contractor opportunity, not an offer of employment. Contractors operate their own businesses and are responsible for applicable licensing, insurance, equipment, safety, and regulatory requirements. A recruiter will call applicants with more details.
