TMC

Hi ive been talking with TMC about a job I have no experience and they said they would help me the costs of school and I was told with my military and work history I was a shoe in. My question is I know what they pay as far as mileage and percentage but what do they pay for bob tailing or hauling an empty trailer and how often are you doing this do they keep you loaded the majority of the time.

Usually, companies pay the same for bob-tail and dead-head (empty trailer) as loaded miles, provided you are "under dispatch".
