Hiring Drivers / Pricing
Pricing · Mile 04 Desk Live · 24/7

Pay only when
the driver starts.
Not before.

Flat placement pricing — no retainer on the single-seat rate, no exclusivity lock, no search-fee surcharge. The fee is invoiced the day your driver reports to orientation. If they walk in 30 days, we replace them free.

$450 Flat · Single Seat $375 / Seat · 3+ Fleet Retainer · 20+ / Year
Placement pricing · 2025

One rate per seat.
