I quit sni the end of apr. I was never on the work flow system. I heard its a love and hate kind of system. Far as the discounts the fuel can vary every two weeks, the lowest i seen was .10 and the highest i seen was .18. The tire discount will save you from $75-$100 depends on the brand. The best lanes are IL, In, Oh, Mi, Mo, believe it or not they have descent freight coming out of ATL. Stay away from the Northeast, good going in and terrible coming out. It will take awhile to learn the system and the freight. But once you learn the system its not bad at all. I never booked anything over 20,00lbs. I look for loads like Kimberly Clark and Proctor and Gamble. I like the Operating Centers , they have them in Charlotte, Atlanta, Fontana, Toronto, Gary, Carlisle, Indy, W. Memphis and Dallas . You can pick and run where ever you like. They have loads all over. I never had a pay issue, heck i only talked to my DBL twice. Just book the load and all the info comes to your qualcomm .( No charge for the qualcomm ). I average a 1.50 all miles, it could be better but i stay in NC and the rates suck! lol

I've heard work flow has issues .. but the choice program don't run it ? That's good ..lol
Im kinda scared to dispatch myself but I have been told its not that bad since you don't have to worry about brokers etc .. And the load board actually tell you your cut of the pie so if the board says 1.80 that's the rate to the truck not a percentage of it .
They told me today the discount is 0.22 on fuel for the next 2 week or next 1 week I'm not sure ..
it looks good on the outside looking in

I've also heard that you can't take a empty home is that true or not ? I was also told when you go out they assign you a trailer to get that if it's over 50 miles they pay you a flat rate depending how far it is to get a trailer .. Is that true info also ?
Thanks

From what I understand you can buy a truck through SNF ( Schneider finance ) and go on choice but you must have 1 year verifiable as a owner Opp first or you got to go mileage for 1 year first

I do but I'm still curious about SNI . I can't go the other route for another 6 weeks or so cause that's the next hire they are doing. But with that said I am also hearing some good stuff about SNI also so since I'm approved there ( currently ) I cant help but wonder about them . I think the other option is better in all honesty because of the upside potential . Originally Posted by Oscar the KW
