Answer
Hi Tim.

Start your own company!  If someone will buy the truck, the trailer is not a huge investment.  Then get your own Authority and start calling brokers!  That's what I would do.

If you don't want to mess with that, start calling every company you can find.  One will hire you.  Call big and small companies.  Keep calling and one will use your services.

Good luck!
