Sublease semi-trailers to owner-operators without owning any equipment

Lease trailers from big leasing companies on net-30 terms with triple-net maintenance (they cover mechanical repairs and no per-mile fee), then sublease them to truckers who lack the credit to lease directly. Collect a deposit and bill weekly while paying the supplier monthly, so the business is cash-flow positive from day one. Scale by asking the same supplier for more units and advertising nationwide.

From Chris Koerner on The Koerner Office Podcast — He Rented Out 300 Trailers and Didn't Own a Single One

Problem: Established trailer rental companies won't rent to new companies or those with bad credit; truckers need the equipment to earn a living.

For: Truckers and small trucking companies — especially new companies and drivers with poor credit — who need a 53' dry van or flatbed to work and are turned away by traditional rental companies.
