Where are those union fuel/chemical hauling jobs??

I will tell you this much about union fuel hauling jobs and chemical hauling jobs in my area. There ain't any. Most of the BIG fuel companies here, Motiva, Mobil/Exxon, Sunoco, are not hiring anymore, and are instead contracting out the hauling nowadays. And those private fleets are certainly not union, but do pay close to union wages and benefits. We have here also at least 2 chemical companies. One is non union the other, as drivers retire, they hire from driver leasing companies. I know, I try each and every time to apply, and gave up. But in YOUR area, union jobs for hauling such, may still be available, so I wish you well.

 

To say I'll be watching this thread CLOSELY: would be an understatement.

 

If you already have a LTL job, why would you want to quit? Not to sound like I'm being biased, but outside of LTL, there really isn't anything worth while. Those fuel haulers are working 70 hour weeks to make what you're making in 48 hours.

Youre one of the lucky few that got the prime of the litter to start with. Stick with it. There ain't much else better out there. Trust me.

 

lee and eastes is union out where you are at, and all the cryo companies are teamsters at most locations. praxair, linde, air products, air liquide, univar, etc...

have you considered going down to your hall and talking to a business agent? they would know before anyone else. Praxair over here is making 6 figures with great benefits and big pension, from what i hear.Have a buddy over at Linde, he loves it, 80k or more a year, good bennies through the union, pension, etc....

 

You are going about this the wrong way. Start calling companies, or better yet go in in person and talk to people. Ask about job openings and pay scales. We can't do your research for you.

 

Like it was said before contact your BA. He deals with these companies regularly and will know who's hiring and who isn't.
