Hooking your dump truck to an agent allows you to get better payment for rentals.
Your dump truck is only good to you if it is signed up with an agent. An agent can get your dump truck signed up for projects, and you can get the money from those projects. Typically, people who want to use a dump truck will contact an agent to get one. The agent takes a cut of the profits, and you will get the rest of the money for the rental. Signing your dump truck up with an agent is not a difficult process.
Instructions
1. Find out who the agents are in your area that handle dump trucks. You can look in the phone book, talk to other dump truck owners or look for a dump truck agent listing at a local rental shop.
2. Contact the various dump truck agents in person or over the phone. Ask them if they are taking on any more trucks. Also ask them what type of percentage they take from rentals. Finally, ask the agents how often they get rentals for trucks.
3. Choose the agent who will take the least amount off of the rental price, and who gets his dump trucks rented the most often. Contact the agent again and tell him you would like to sign a contract so he can be in charge of your dump truck's rental.
4. Sign a contract with your dump truck agent. A contract is important because otherwise there is no record of what the dump truck agent should owe you.
