Marche,

It will depend on many factors including type of product (products) your company will be hauling (as in Haidar's response that is a focused product and he could have a 2 car hauler, 4 car hauler, 8 car hauler and a 10 car hauler), whether or not you will handle dangerous goods, whether or not you will move cargo for import or export, whether you will be performing local trucking or long-haul (regional or national), and many other factors. Send me a note directly to discuss.

Best of luck!
