    Companies that take on owner operators with 3 months experience?? I have a good friend of mine that will be 3 months out of school and I would like to place him onto my second truck. I know JB HUNT does 3 months but they don’t accept more then 1 truck per owner operator, in other worlds no fleets allowed. Thank you in advance for letting me know of which good companies I am eligible to add a truck too.

    Now that I thought on it, JB does take power only carriers, with drivers.
    May look into that and not lease to JB.

    From JB Hunt

    We don’t require a contract or a long term commitment. Just drive a Class A tractor, be safe, get there on time, we’ll handle the rest and you’ll make nice money with us!

    Just a couple things to keep in mind:

    • Assigned a dedicated Capacity Coordinator and we have 24/7 support, so you’re never alone if a problem arises.
    • Get approved for dedicated jobs and holiday rush freight
    • Most of the loads are drop and hook type, so it’s a quick in and out.
    • Get paid in 2-3 days with Quick Pay.
    • No Coast to Coast runs but we do need a commitment of at least a week.
    • Choose as few as 5 states for your running area to stay close to home if you want
    • 100% no touch freight.
    • Put the power of JB Hunt behind you w/ up to 18 cents a gallon off fuel, along with maintenance and tire discounts with preferred vendors.

    I currently have a truck with JB HUNT, im not 100% sure but I have heard that they dont like multiple truck owner operators on their fleet. Not sure why. I will definitely have to ask.
