TAKE THE NEXT STEP AND BECOME A LEASE OPERATOR

Step Three offers the qualified company driver an opportunity to lease a truck and become an Independent Business Owner. After leasing a truck, you then contract your truck back to Central to haul freight as a Lease Operator, ultimately making more income than a company driver. Why is this good for Central? The average lease operator runs more miles, drives safer, has a better service record, and has a more positive effect on the profitability of the company. Central’s lease program is a win-win situation for both the driver and the company.

Upon becoming a lease operator, the driver’s average income will increase by nearly $15,000 per year. Lease operators enjoy the same sense of duty, ownership, and responsibility that comes with being a business owner.
