The Daily. Tuesday, December 18, 2001 Small for-hire and owner operators of motor carriers of freight1999There were an estimated 6,516 Canada-based small for-hire carriers (with annual revenues between $30,000 and $1 million) in 1999. Their 1999 operating revenues totalled $2.44 billion, slightly exceeding the $2.34 billion incurred in expenses in small for-hire trucking operations. On a per-carrier basis, total revenues were an estimated $374,000. Although these carriers represent almost 72% of the total number of Canada-based for-hire carriers, their revenues account for only about 13% of the total operating revenues of the entire for-hire trucking industry, which were estimated at $19 billion in 1999. These survey results also cover 37,000 owner-operators who work for the for-hire and private carriers. In 1999, operating revenues generated by owner-operators decreased almost 3% from 1998, down to $5.9 billion. Operating expenses totalled $5.2 billion. Results from the 1999 Small for-hire Carriers and Owner Operators Survey are now available. Data from the Annual Motor Carriers of Freight Survey: Small For-hire Carriers and Owner Operators will appear in Surface and marine transport service bulletin (50-002-XIB, $10), which will be available in January 2002.
