Everything people ask us, answered like a neighbor would.
TheRigBoss is a Texas shipping marketplace that connects people who need something moved — furniture, cars, boats, tractors, appliances, anything big — with verified local truck drivers. No broker, no middleman: you post it, a driver takes it, you track it to the door.
The app is free and your first 5 shipments have zero platform fee — you pay only the driver's rate. After that, a flat 8% is added on top of the driver's rate. There are no subscriptions or memberships for regular folks.
Furniture, appliances, lumber and building materials, cars, trucks, motorcycles, boats, jet skis, ATVs, RVs, tractors, mowers, hot tubs, gun safes, pianos, sheds, pool tables, gym equipment, storage-unit cleanouts — if it fits on a trailer, you can post it.
Anything illegal or hazardous, and anything that needs special authority we haven't enabled yet (like livestock). When in doubt, post it and a driver will tell you.
We're launching across the Texas Triangle: Houston, Dallas–Fort Worth, Austin, and San Antonio — including runs between those metros.
Winter 2026. Waitlist members get access first, city by city.
Independent Texas hot shot and owner-operator truck drivers. Every driver is verified for operating authority (MC/USDOT where required) and insurance before they can accept a single load.
Every price is shown up front before you commit: the driver's rate plus a flat 8% platform fee (waived on your first 5 shipments). All loads have a $300 minimum so a real driver with a real trailer is worth booking.
Drivers carry insurance, and at booking you can add an optional protection plan ($25, $55, or $95 depending on coverage) or decline it.
At booking your payment is held securely, and the driver is paid when your item arrives and delivery is confirmed. You never hand cash to a stranger.
Everything: you set your rate and keep 100% of it. Our fee is charged to the shipper on top. Founding drivers get verified early and see loads first. Sign up on the Become a Driver page.
Yes. Businesses start pay-per-load just like everyone else — no contracts, first 5 loads free. High-volume shippers get a volume-pricing conversation when the math makes sense. See the For Business page.
Founding members get their first 5 shipments free. No spam — one email when we launch in your city, that's it.
