    Depends on what kind of material you are hauling, how far it is going, etc...I try to make $60 hr. or $3 to $4 per mile when I am hauling someone else's material...if I am on an onsite job I usually charge $50 hr.

    when i left the construction industry. rates were 50 for dump, 65 with trailer. per hour. 65 for end dumps. 80 if truck was 5 axle and 4 axle trailer. 90 for double bellies.

    rates were higher before the economy tanked. by about 20 bucks per hour.
