{"text":"Hey what's up guys looking for some advice about how to best enter the dump trucking and equipment hauling market in North Texas. I'm a new Company Owner and MBA graduate looking to start my own outfit in the Construction Industry. I have experience working with dump trucks when I was younger and in my college days, but I've always had a interest in heavy equipment since a kid. Professionally I've been working for the last couple of years at a Corporate level for one of the largest Concrete Pipe and Building Products manufacturers in North America. So being on the job-site doesn't bother me. What I'm looking to do/Investment Opportunity: 1. Buy a dump truck - 12-14 Yard Dump Truck or Day Cab w/ 20 Yard End Dump.2. Hire Dedicated Driver Pay % Per Load 3. Sub - Contract work w/ existing Dump Trucking Companies.4. Buy 2nd Truck at End of Year 1While all of these activities are going on my main task as a owner will be to ensure that the truck has work at all time and to dispatch. I plan to utilize a bountiful alumni network, In house Government Contracting Specialist, Marketing to Contractors etc to get work. The goal is to eventually get away from sub-contracting and to be in 1st position.My questions is do you guys think this is feasible as Ideally I would like to keep my 9-5?If so,is it better to start with the small dump truck or the larger end dump?What is a fair % for End Dump Drivers in Texas considering we are a startup, but with lots of potential growth.Thanks !214Trucking","pics":"[]","canComment":true}
