Benefits and Requirements
Take a look at the content below to see the benefits and requirements for partnering with Star Fleet Trucking. Visit our independent contractor payment page to learn more about our payment, perks and benefits.
Benefits
Star Fleet believes its most valuable asset is our fleet of independent contractors. We offer competitive benefits such as:
- Per-Trip Compensation
- Single Point of Contact
- Flexible Dispatch
- Quick Driver Pay (Up to Three Times Daily)
- Upfront Advances
RV transport job pay is wholly dependent on your availability to make trips. Our independent contractors get paid 50% up front and receive the other 50% upon completion of the delivery. A driver can drive as often as they would like, but they must operate within DOT safety guidelines. Our per mile rate and a driver’s yearly miles travelled depend on fuel prices and driver willingness to complete jobs. If you’re interested in learning more about what RV transport job pay would look like for you, contact our recruiting office at (877-217-6919) for information.
