In a perfect world you would be correct. And by word of mouth you may still get some hauls. But look at it from the other side. The hauling schedule is full of full time haulers. Cargo theft is a reality. The owner is trusting you (that he has never met before) with thousands of his hard earned green backs. What if some thing happens.

Plus if you are caught by the DOT (very unlikely if you have a small truck) hauling some one else’s stuff you truck and CARGO (my tractor) will be impounded.
