The money
88% is yours. That's the deal.
One percentage. 12% dispatch fee, 88% to you. Here is one week on paper, so you can run your own numbers.
Average truck gross: $10,000–$15,500 a week on 2,800–4,500 miles. Reefer, flatbed, step deck and Conestoga freight.
- Truck gross

Before fuel, your truck payment, maintenance, tires, taxes and trailer rent if you rent from us. Escrow of $200 a week is withheld until it reaches $2,500. It is refundable. The full fee list is further down this page.
The money
25% every week. Up to 30% at quarter end.
The truck earns, you earn. Gross $100,000 or more in a quarter and your rate goes up for the whole quarter.
Example: the truck grosses $12,000 in a week. 25% is $3,000. An example, not a promise.
Quarterly performance bonus
- Quarterly target: $100,000 gross.
- +1 percentage point for every $2,000 above $100,000.
- Maximum 30% at $110,000 and up.
- The rate you earn applies to the entire quarter's gross. The difference above the 25% already paid comes at quarter end.
| Quarter gross | Your rate | Quarter pay | Bonus |
|---|---|---|---|
| $100,000 | 25% | $25,000 | — |
| $102,000 | 26% | $26,520 | $1,020 |

| $110,000+ | 30% | $33,000 | $5,500 |
Last row shown at exactly $110,000. Bonus is the difference between your earned rate and the 25% already paid during the quarter. Examples based on truck gross, not a promise of earnings.
The money
A cut of every load. 25–30%.
Where you start depends on your flatbed experience. Where you go depends on how you run.
Average truck gross: $10,000–$15,500 a week on 2,800–4,500 miles.
- Truck gross
- $12,000
- At 25%

The truck grosses more, you make more. The truck grosses less, you make less. That is how percentage pay works.

Who we are
Started by a driver. Still run like one.
Pro Star Logistics was founded by a former truck driver. If you've driven, you know the feeling: stuck at a dock with nobody answering, or opening a settlement that doesn't match what you were told.
So we built the opposite. Dispatch that answers day and night. Our own terminal and shop. Pay you can check with a calculator.
- Interstate carrier since 2017
- About 80 trucks
