I just got an offer to start driving with wal-mart stores this morning. I will start the 1st sunday in march. I put my app in early january and had an interview with 2 wally drivers last week and i did a road test last saturday. They have a wall with a picture of every driver posted with their hire date and recognitions and it seems that every driver has been their a good while.They told me to expect no less then $60,000 per year and that you will make $80,000 per year if you run 6 days per week. I will be paid every two weeks by either check or direct deposit. From all the nice new cars and trucks that the drivers have where the drivers park when there out driving, it looks as if ill do well. One driver who interviewed me stated we as drivers do well here because sam walton knew the sacrifice that drivers have to make with their families, and that sam compensated the drivers for this. I am off this week on vacation from amstan logistics and am putting in my notice to quit. I am going to take the rest of feburary off till i start driving with wal-mart. Good luck to all of you out there and god bless!

I have heard they get paid better then teamster drivers. I guess sam dident want a union involved in his trucking operation.

You heard wrong, and right

My husband worked for Wal-Mart prior to becoming a truck driver. He only likes about a month until he has 2 yrs OTR experience in. He is wanting to drive for Wal-Mart pretty bad. I believe he said you have to have 3 yrs experience in, is that right? Sure wish it was 2!!

What are the benifits like? I make about $74,000 as a teamster UPS package driver and I have free benefits. Nothing taken out for them. My deductible is only $100 for the whole family too.
