Mav IC, the independent contractor division of Maverick Transportation, says it plans to grow its fleet by nearly 30 percent through its lease purchase program. The maroon equipment is considered by many
in the industry as the best maintained and most sought after remarketed trucks in commercial transportation.
The decision to expand comes in part from a supply and demand standpoint, with Mav IC experiencing a waiting list of applicants for nearly the past two years. Through Maverick Logistics, the company is able to offer consistent freight and miles. Lease Purchase drivers receive 77 percent gross revenue to the truck plus 100 percent of the fuel surcharge paid directly to them.
"We make it easy for an independent contractor just starting out. We don't require any money down and provide an installment plan if needed for purchasing equipment," said Joe Johnson, the general manager of Mav IC. "We have well-trained personnel to help support each IC's business needs and provide the best training in safety and load securement."
Lease Purchase drivers enjoy weekends at home and benefits like an expansive, volume-priced fuel network, support at all Maverick terminals and a discounted maintenance program via FleetNet America. Additional services include PrePass, American Truck Business Services, Transflo Express and more.
Transporting primarily steel and building materials, Mav IC, a division of Maverick Transportation LLC, is based in Scottsboro, Ala., and services markets coast-to-coast. To learn more about opportunities at Mav IC, call (866) 472-7738, or visit www.drivemaverick.com.
