Faq & Terms

Yankee Freight Systems LLC offers two working structures:

• Company Driver (W2): Paid a fixed salary or mileage-based compensation.
• Owner Operator (Lease-to-Own or Independent Contractor): Engaged under a lease-to-own or contracted freight-hauling agreement.

Specific terms for either structure will be detailed in separate signed agreements and do not limit or override these Terms.

Company Drivers will be paid based on the agreed salary or per-mile rate, on a weekly or biweekly basis, subject to proper time logs, logs of deliveries, and other required documentation.

Owner Operators under lease-to-own are paid per completed load as agreed in their contract. Payment may be delayed or withheld for incomplete deliveries, damaged freight, late paperwork, or outstanding balances.

Yankee Freight Systems LLC reserves the right to deduct or offset from any payments:

• Damages caused by negligence or non-compliance.
• Cash advances not repaid.
• Fuel card misuse or unauthorized fuel purchases.
• Repairs or maintenance owed under lease-to-own agreements.
• Insurance or other fees contractually agreed upon.

If a driver or operator fails to meet their payment obligations under any lease-to-own or service agreement, we reserve the right to:

• Suspend dispatch services until payment is resolved.
• Terminate agreements and recover equipment.
• Pursue legal action for recovery of unpaid balances, damages, or leased property.
• Report delinquency to relevant credit bureaus or regulatory authorities.
• Late payments may incur penalties and interest, as specified in your individual agreement.
