Most owners of FedEx routes are owner-operators. Not only do they own the route, but they also drive and deliver packages regularly or from time to time when their employees call out sick or are unavailable. If you plan on driving, you will have to meet FedEx's driving safety rules.
How much do you make owning a FedEx route?
A route owner can make an annual profit of $30,000 to $50,000 on a single route, he said. Each business has a unique contract with FedEx that outlines the terms of how they'll be paid. FedEx usually pays route owners based on how many stops the truck makes and how many packages the driver picks up and delivers.
Does FedEx have their own drivers?
FedEx is made up of Express, where drivers are employed by the company and the company supplies the truck. On the FedEx Ground side, you have CSP's or contracted service providers. They own the trucks and routes and the drivers work for the CSP, not FedEx Ground. The linehaul drivers are also CSP's.
