In this episode of This Week in Trucking, Kalei Poteat โ founder of Fleet Connect, a network of over 50,000 operators โ breaks down why most small carriers stay stuck, how to build a real client acquisition system instead of refreshing a load board, what AI can actually do for a 1 to 5 truck operation right now, why founder dependency is the trap that keeps small carriers small, and the one thing you can do this week to start building a business instead of just running a truck.

Ten years ago you didn't see insurance claims over $10 million. Now $10 million is the average. And brokers are quietly cutting carriers out of their networks without telling them why.
In this episode of This Week in Trucking, Kodie Yost โ Risk Management Consultant at UCI Insurance Services, former freight broker with 7 years managing food and beverage accounts for Costco, Target, and Walmart โ breaks down what it actually means to be a "defensible carrier," why the Montgomery ruling is reshaping who gets freight in 2026, what contract language is exposing small carriers to millions in hidden liability, and why the biggest financial risk you face isn't fuel or insurance costs โ it's becoming unattractive to quality customers.

Freight fraud isn't just double brokering anymore. They're hacking carrier emails, stealing entire freight bills, running ghost fleets, and impersonating legitimate trucking companies. And most carriers don't know they've been hit until a broker calls asking where their load is.
In this episode of This Week in Trucking, John Cantera: the Double Broker Bounty Hunter, 25-year logistics and supply chain veteran, former Air Force logistics officer, and certified war planner,ย breaks down how freight fraud has evolved, how carriers are being targeted right now, and what you can do today to protect yourself.
NOTE: This conversation was recorded before the Supreme Court's Montgomery v. FCA ruling. The ruling has since been decided, removing broker preemption and opening the door for freight brokers to be held liable for negligent hiring. John's breakdown of what was at stake and what it means for carriers and brokers is now playing out in real time across roughly 900 cases nationwide.

She started driving in 2019 for fun. By 2021, she had her own authority. Today she runs 60 trucks โ all owner-operators โ hauling reefer, flatbed, and dry van freight. And one of her drivers just grossed $13,000 in a single week.
In this episode of This Week in Trucking, Daria Kaputsina, Founder and CEO of Mountain Lane Trucking, breaks down how she went from three trucks to 60, why she ditched the company driver model during the freight recession, how her owner-operator pay structure works (88-90% of revenue), real weekly revenue numbers by equipment type, and the trailer rental fraud that cost her money she'll never get back.

The average truck costs $100,000 a year to operate. $14,000 to $16,000 of that goes to repairs alone. And if you're an owner-operator handling breakdowns on your own, you're probably overpaying.
In this episode of This Week in Trucking, Dana from TTN Fleet Solutions โ with 30+ years in transportation and fleet maintenance โ breaks down the most common (and most expensive) truck repairs, why preventive maintenance is the single highest-ROI habit in trucking, and how a vetted service provider network with 21,000 dispatchable locations can save you money, time, and stress when something goes wrong on the road.

Most brokerages won't touch e-commerce because of the margins. Xander Hassan and Kanon Acker built their entire business around it โ and they're winning.
In this return episode of This Week in Trucking, Xander and Kanon from Hassan Transportation & Logistics (HTL) break down how they went from general brokerage to designing full supply chains for e-commerce brands, including parcel, warehousing, last mile delivery, and drayage. Plus, the wildest freight theft story you'll hear this year โ involving a stolen $650K load, a guy running the operation from a prison cell, and an FBI raid in California.
We also cover how small carriers can get into e-commerce fulfillment, why cold calling isn't dead, how HTL builds broker-carrier partnerships, and what tariff uncertainty means for small logistics companies in 2026.

85 to 90% of trucking companies don't make it past 18 months. Bo Prock has spent 21 years figuring out why โ and what the ones who survive do differently.
In this episode of This Week in Trucking, Bo Prock, Operations Manager at Eagle Logistics (38 power units, 140+ trailers), breaks down the operational disciplines that separate profitable small carriers from the ones who burn out chasing revenue. We cover cost per mile, cash flow, contract freight vs. load boards, driver retention, when to buy new vs. used equipment, why dash cams are the best ROI investment in trucking, and how AI is already changing fleet operations.
