Transparent Owner Operator Partnership

At Elgin Express, we believe owner operators deserve clarity about how they are compensated.

Our partnership structure is simple:

90%

To the Owner Operator

Owner operators receive 90% of gross load revenue.

10%

Retained by Elgin Express

Retained for operational support and management services.

Support Beyond the Load

Running your own authority — or running under ours — comes with more than just finding freight. Here's what we help with:

Fuel cards
We provide fuel card access to help manage one of your biggest operating costs.
Prepass
We provide Prepass access to help you skip the scale unless you're picked for inspection — less downtime, more miles.
Traffic ticket support
Getting a ticket on the road doesn't have to become a hit to your CSA score or your day. We connect you with trusted traffic lawyer support to help fight it.

None of this replaces the fact that you're running your own business. It just means you're not figuring out the operational side alone.

Owner operators remain responsible for their own business expenses, including:

  • Fuel
  • Tolls
  • Insurance
  • IFTA
  • Weight taxes
  • Registration
  • Other operating expenses

We believe transparency builds stronger relationships. You should always understand how your business operates and where your money goes.
