You just got your MC number and your phone won't stop ringing. I'm the guy who tells you the truth about what's free, what's worth paying for, and who to hang up on.
The honest breakdown nobody handed you when you submitted that $300 payment.
One real person. Straight answers. No call-center scripts.
Getting your trucking authority should be the start of something good. Instead, it kicks off a storm of pressure calls, junk fees, and "services" you never needed.
Within hours of filing, a dozen companies are calling, texting, and emailing — all claiming you "need" them to stay legal.
You get charged hundreds for filings that are free, or padded "compliance packages" full of things you'll never use.
Nobody explains it in plain English, so you pay out of fear instead of understanding — and stay anxious about what you missed.
The calls have you doubting everything. I lay out what's real, what's required, and what's just static — so you know your next move.
Most of what they're pushing is free or junk. Once you can tell the difference, the pressure has nothing to hold onto.
You'll finally understand every filing, deadline, and form — what it is, why it matters, what to do.
All three come from the DIY Compliance Kit — the whole plan, in your hands. Guided Launch adds me to the team: we walk through it together on a call, and I've got your back over email for the next 30 days.
I'm Andrew. Thirty years behind the wheel, a Class A CDL, and my own authority — which means I've sat exactly where you are. I still roll today, so I'm not teaching from a textbook. The day mine went active, the phone lit up: a dozen "services" all swearing I'd get shut down without them. Most of it was free or flat-out fake, and watching new carriers get talked out of their money is the reason StraightHaul exists. No scripts, no upsell games. Just one driver telling another the truth.
A quick note: StraightHaul is education, not legal advice — I'm a carrier, not an attorney. Rules change and vary by state and locality, so always confirm what applies to you with the FMCSA and your state and local authorities before you act.
Simple, honest pricing. No padding, no surprise fees.
You handle the filing — I hand you everything you need to do it yourself, start to finish.
Built to answer your questions before you have to ask them.
Everything in the Kit, plus me walking you through every step.
I monitor your key compliance deadlines and send a reminder well before each one is due.
The guide nobody handed you when you got your authority — written by someone who's tired of watching new carriers get fleeced.
No fluff. Just the stuff I wish someone had explained to me on day one.
A plain-English walkthrough of the actual steps — and which "help" you can skip.
