Oberlin LLC partners with CDL-A owner operators who want steady loads, transparent rates, and a carrier that actually picks up the phone. No games. No forced dispatch.
You bought your truck to be your own boss. We built our operation around operators who think that way.
You approve every load before it's confirmed. If a lane doesn't work for you — home time, deadhead, rate — you decline it. No penalties, no pressure, no attitude.
Don't wait 30–45 days on your own money. Submit your paperwork and get paid within 48 hours — no factoring fees, no runaround, just fast settlement every time.
We maintain dedicated lanes and broker relationships across the Southeast and Midwest so your truck isn't sitting. Load coverage 5–6 days a week with flexible scheduling.
Access to our fuel network discount card at major truck stops nationwide. Save $0.30–$0.50 per gallon compared to retail pump prices. Your savings, every fill-up.
Dispatch is available and responsive — not a voicemail. When there's a problem on the road, you get a human on the line fast. Small operation, direct communication.
88% of gross to you — always. No hidden deductions, no creative accounting. You see the rate sheet before the load is booked, and your settlement matches it.
Owner operators keep 88% of gross on every load. Here's how the full picture adds up.
Owner operators running 10,000–12,000 miles/month on our lanes average $180,000–$350,000 gross annually — before expenses, which vary by truck and operation.
Reefer operators handling temperature-sensitive freight consistently land at the top of that range, with stronger rates and less deadhead on dedicated lanes.
Getting set up with Oberlin takes a few days, not weeks. Once you're approved, loads start moving.
Fill out the partner application and submit your CDL, MC number, DOT number, insurance certificate, and truck details. We review everything within 2 business days.
We set you up in our system, verify your authority, and confirm insurance requirements. You'll get access to dispatch, our fuel card, and settlement portal.
Dispatch sends you available loads that match your location, preferred lanes, and availability. You see the rate before accepting. No obligation on any load.
Deliver the freight, submit your paperwork, and choose 48-hour quick pay or standard Friday settlement. Every week, on time, no games.
Freight volume and lane availability vary by season. Dispatch will always communicate current conditions honestly.
"WE FIND THE FREIGHT. YOU RUN YOUR BUSINESS."
Oberlin LLC is a Georgia-based carrier that works with a select group of owner operators who want to run their business without the drama. We're not trying to be a mega-carrier — we're trying to be the best carrier you've ever leased to.
Small operation means you're not a number in a queue. You talk to the same dispatcher. You see the same rate transparency every settlement. Problems get solved same-day, not same-week.
We support operators who want to build under our authority while they grow their own, and experienced operators who just want quality loads. No lock-in, no long-term contract required to start.
We keep the back-office side straight — proper contracts, compliant insurance verification, clean paperwork on every load. You focus on driving; we keep it legal and simple.
No carrier wants a breakdown or an incident. We never pressure you to run unsafe hours or push through bad conditions. You make the call — we back it.
As we grow freight volume, top operators get first access to premium lanes, better rates, and additional truck opportunities. We grow when you grow.
We review every application personally and follow up within 2 business days. If we're not the right fit right now, we'll tell you honestly.
