START YOUR BUSINESS

Dump truck owners make their money in one of two ways: by working with the dump truck as a driver, or by leasing out the dump truck. The amount of money you can make depends on how many trucks you own, the types of clients you have and how many hours you work. Landscaping companies, building contractors and mining companies often hire dump truck drivers to haul heavy materials to and from the job site. You could also find local opportunities for winter snow removal. Since average salaries can be distorted by one or two people earning an unusually high amount, the industry typically uses «median» figures for earnings. The median figure is the midpoint; half of all truck drivers make more than the median, and half make. This suggests that dump truck drivers earn a higher-than-average wage.

Getting Started

If the recent boom in the construction sector attracts you, it may not be a bad idea to invest in a dump truck to make some money. Obviously, your potential clients are going to be homeowners, landscaping companies, and building contractors. Otherwise, you need to get one, perhaps a used dump truck in order to save your initial cash outlay. Of course, its make, model, and mileage will factor in the price tag. Individual districts and local governments may require specific licensing or additional training before you can legally launch your dump truck business. Landscaping suppliers and contractors often need a dump truck to move rocks, dirt, and other landscaping material to the job site.
