A Creative Solution to the Driver Shortage
SlipSeat is a freelance marketplace where CDL Drivers & Owner Operators independently sell available Hours of Service to Motor Carriers. A creative solution to the driver shortage, we entice drivers to give up their personal time which adds valuable resources to a capacity constrained industry. The drivers earn what they want, and the carriers deliver more loads. Everyone wins!
To drivers, SlipSeat is an opportunity to capitalize on the driver shortage before robots steal your job. You still drive, you just do it for yourself. You may charge whatever rate you want, you are free to turn down any gig request for any reason, and you select your own services to sell. Companies even come to you and solicit your services. SlipSeaters are in complete control.
To carriers, SlipSeat is a nationwide spot market where you can find drivers with available HOS, allowing you to deliver more loads at the end of the day. If you need a replacement driver because of a no show, hire a driver for a day. If you need extra drivers to handle increased seasonal volumes, hire your drivers for a month. We are your on demand, pay-as-you-go driver pool.
Rules of the Road:
• Rates are hourly & non-negotiable
• Carriers pay for OnDuty hours, Practical Route tolls, and fuel for contract drivers
• No gig can last more than 30 days
• Gigs may be booked 6 months in advance
• Carriers are free to hire any previously used driver for full-time permanent employment
