Cada milha custa dinheiro. Mas o que cada milha realmente rende para você?
Milhares de motoristas entram no negócio de vans de carga todos os anos, acreditando que mais milhas significam automaticamente mais dinheiro.
Combustível, seguro, manutenção, tempo de inatividade e as comissões dos corretores remodelam a economia de cada viagem.
Milhas difíceis revelam a lacuna crucial entre a receita bruta e o lucro real.

More miles don’t always mean more money. Hard Miles exposes the real economics of the cargo van industry and the hidden costs every driver should understand before hitting the road.

New Book Announcement | Coming Soon from VLM Press

A new title from VLM Press is set to explore the realities behind one of today’s fastest-growing sectors in transportation.

Hard Miles: What No One Tells You Before Starting a Cargo Van Business, by Edivaldo A. Fontes, examines the economic realities faced by independent drivers and small operators in the cargo van industry.

With the expansion of e-commerce and last-mile logistics, thousands of drivers have entered the market in search of strong opportunities. However, fuel prices, insurance costs, vehicle maintenance, broker commissions, and downtime between loads can significantly impact profitability.

In Hard Miles, Fontes presents a direct analysis of the operational and financial challenges that many drivers only discover after months on the road. The book explores the difference between gross revenue and actual profit, offering practical insight for those considering entering the sector as well as experienced owner-operators.

The upcoming release provides a realistic look at the financial structure behind cargo van operations and the factors that determine whether a transportation business becomes sustainable.
