Once upon a time, the logistics and transportation industry was a hot pastry for making money. At that time, the number of semi trailers was small, there were many goods, and the supply of goods was stable. It was almost possible to work after buying a car, with stable income and free time. "When the motor rang, there were thousands of gold" was the scene of the freight industry at that time.

Nowadays, the domestic economic level is constantly improving, and the development of various industries is higher than before. However, with the influx of more and more vehicles, the freight industry is becoming more and more depressed. The freight is low, the road condition is poor, and the supply of goods is small. All kinds of problems make the car owners more and more pessimistic. Many novices want to enter this industry, but they are not sure how to make a profit. Let's talk about it today.

1. What license do I need to drive a semi-trailer?

In the past, truck transportation required B2 driver's license, which is also the type of driver's license owned by many car owners. However, compared with trucks, semi trailers are used for road transportation, but the models are different. Semi trailers belong to tractors, so they must obtain class A2 driver's license to drive. Therefore, if novice car owners want to drive a semi-trailer, they must first apply for an additional driving license.

2. Before entering the transportation industry, do you know this industry?

Driving a semi-trailer for transportation, especially long-distance transportation, is a very hard thing. In this industry, the amount of freight is closely related to the attendance rate. It is very common all year round. When there is a large amount, many car owners often rest no more than 30 hours a week, or even reach the state of continuous rotation. It is not only hard, but also the risk factor is very high.

In the current freight industry, many resources are in the hands of old car owners. Novices want to get a share of them. It is far from enough without experience and resources. At least a teacher is needed to lead the way. Skills are needed in how to find goods, how to transport goods and how to negotiate freight.

There are many uncertain factors in long-distance transportation. For example, in case of a typhoon in the south, the delay is several days; For example, the unloading time is uncertain. Sometimes, if you are one hour late for the destination, you have to press the car at night and unload the next day; Various factors, such as asymmetric docking of goods, pumping of platforms, etc., should be taken into account.

3. How much is the annual cost of semi-trailer transportation?

In the previous article, we specifically discussed the costs of a semi-trailer in one year. Here we briefly review:

4. What is the annual income of driving a semi-trailer?

The main source of revenue of semi-trailer is freight. According to the current high standard of the industry, the freight of 1500 kilometers is 10000 yuan, and the total freight of 200000 kilometers a year is about 1333000.

5. What is the annual net profit of semi-trailer?

After calculating the total cost and total income, the net profit is clear at a glance.

Don't forget that we have also omitted some costs, so the actual net profit will be relatively reduced. Of course, in the calculation process, many values are obtained from the industry average, and there must be regional differences or other conditions. Car owners can make specific calculations according to their actual situation.

There are only two ways to increase profits: one is to increase freight, such as reducing vehicle weight and obtaining more loading space under laws and standards; One is to reduce costs, such as using cost-effective, long maintenance cycle, durable and manufacturing resistant accessories. Here we recommend Darong axle, the representative of domestic high cost performance axle, and one of the enterprises that started mass production of integrated axle earlier. It has changed the traditional welded three joint axle body, which has stronger heavy load performance, more durable and manufacturing resistance. Combined with lightweight design and technology, the self weight of the product is reduced by about 15% compared with the traditional axle. At the same time, more advanced processing instruments are introduced to further improve the processing accuracy of axle head, and a 2-year / 500000 km maintenance free axle is successfully launched in conjunction with the special bearings and hubs for trailers, so as to help car owners save vehicle costs.
