Frequently asked questions

Answers for drivers, for LogisX Truck Fund participants, and for shippers and carriers on the digital freight hub.

All questions

Drivers

  • How much do LogisX drivers make?

    Pay is a flat day rate set by your experience: $200 a day for brand-new drivers, up to $350 a day for our most experienced drivers. Our target is $300 a day.

  • Which days are paid?

    Every day you're picking up, hauling or dropping off a load is a paid day at your day rate, so a three-day load is three paid days. You're paid by the day, not the mile.

  • When and how do I get paid?

    Settlements are weekly, one week in the hole: work this week, get paid by direct deposit the following Friday. You send your weekly invoice from the LogisX driver app.

  • Am I an employee or a contractor?

    You're paid as an independent contractor.

  • Where will I drive?

    On dedicated lanes across Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Kansas, Iowa, Nebraska and Minnesota.

  • How much of the freight is drop and hook?

    Most of our loads are drop and hook, which cuts down the time you spend waiting on live loads and unloads. We do also have some live loads and live unloads.

  • Will I get home time?

    If you live in one of our operating states, you could be home every weekend. If you live outside those states, weekend home time may not be possible.

  • What will I drive?

    Our fleet is mostly Freightliner Cascadias with automatic transmissions, and new drivers get newer trucks.

  • What do I need to drive with LogisX?

    A valid Class A CDL, one year minimum driving experience, a valid medical card, drug and alcohol consortium enrollment, and a clean driving record with no tickets and no accidents. Before your first load, you're approved by our insurance provider, pass a DOT drug test (under DOT rules, a positive result for marijuana disqualifies you) and complete a road test with us. You also need to be experienced with iPhone and Android devices: you'll work in our driver app, and our electronic ELD is provided by LogisX and powered by RouteMate.

  • I have less than a year of experience. Can I still apply?

    Yes. You can join through our training program, where you'll team with a trainer.

  • How do I apply?

    Use Apply Now on the Drivers page, which opens the application on app.logisx.com. After you apply, we review your driving history; hiring depends on insurance approval, a drug test and your MVR.

  • Is someone there if I need help on the road?

    Yes: round-the-clock driver support, dispatch and customer service.

LogisX Truck Fund

  • What is the LogisX Truck Fund?

    A participation program. You own a truck through your own LLC; LogisX puts it to work on dedicated contracts across the United States, with LogisX AI Fleet Assist assisting in managing the day-to-day; and you share in the profits of the operations.

  • Is the LogisX Truck Fund a security?

    No. The LogisX Truck Fund is a participation program: you own a truck through your own LLC and take part in the business. Nothing on this site is an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy, any securities.

  • Who owns the truck?

    You do, through your own LLC. When you buy the truck outright, the title and the loss payee are in your name. On a financed truck, the lender is the loss payee until it's paid off.

  • How can the LogisX Truck Fund help with my taxes?

    It may bring potential tax benefits, even if you finance the truck. Not tax advice; any benefit depends on your situation, so consult your tax advisor.

  • Can I finance the truck?

    Yes. LogisX works with financing partners that can get you into a truck with a low down payment, depending on whether you qualify, and potential tax benefits may still apply. With financing there is a monthly truck payment, and the lender is the loss payee until the truck is paid off. Not tax advice; any benefit depends on your situation, so consult your tax advisor.

  • How are payouts made?

    Payouts are monthly, starting after the first 60 days: a 50/50 split of net revenue between you and LogisX.

  • What trucks does the LogisX Truck Fund buy?

    Fleet-maintained trucks from enterprise and commercial fleet maintenance programs, with detailed maintenance logs, bought after the steep part of the depreciation curve: they have already lost about 60% of their MSRP value.

  • Where do the trucks run?

    On dedicated contracts across the United States.

  • What does LogisX AI Fleet Assist do?

    It's our AI-integrated system. It assists with dispatching, driver recruiting, driver payments, expenses and receipts.

  • What returns can I expect?

    We don't promise returns. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

  • How do I get started?

    Schedule a call with our team from the LogisX Truck Fund page, and we'll walk you through it.

Digital Freight Hub

  • Is LogisX a broker?

    No. LogisX hauls with its own trucks and provides capacity to brokers. LogisX operates under Logistics Exchange Inc., an FMCSA-authorized motor carrier (USDOT 4302683).

  • What makes LogisX special?

    LogisX is a digital freight hub backed by its own trucks. Shippers get direct quotes, brokers discover and get dedicated capacity for their common lanes, and carriers can access dedicated lanes.

  • How does LogisX prevent double brokering and fraud?

    We use our proprietary technology to vet & verify every carrier within our network. We have built-in features that ensure the carrier completes certain procedures to confirm they are moving the loads.

  • How does LogisX earn money?

    We charge the shipper a fixed tender fee for each load tendered through our platform. LogisX is free for carriers.

  • Is LogisX available nationwide?

    Yes, it is available nationwide.

  • What types of shipments does LogisX support?

    LogisX supports various types of shipments, including general freight, perishable goods, and more.

  • How does LogisX ensure that carriers have legal authority to haul loads?

    LogisX takes carrier qualification seriously. We have rigorous processes in place to verify carrier credentials, including legal authority and insurance coverage. By leveraging existing tech and industry practices, we ensure that only qualified carriers join our platform.

  • How are carriers paid through LogisX?

    Carriers are paid through their regular payment methods, such as invoices and factoring. In the future, we have plans to introduce a convenient payment system for direct driver payments, streamlining the payment process for carriers.

  • How does LogisX differentiate itself from traditional brokers?

    LogisX isn't a broker: it's a digital freight hub that hauls with its own trucks. Shippers get direct quotes, brokers discover and get dedicated capacity for their common lanes, and carriers can access dedicated lanes. Our focus is on streamlining logistics operations and providing value-added services.
