    They will tell you in orientation $1100-$1500 per week. Since i've been here they have been true to there word.....However don't think your going to make this by practicing slack work ethic.... You can if your willing to safely drive the miles....Martin pays a percentage of the load....

    I think that guy on top of this thread, just couldnt turn his paperwork in on time and could do his logbooks right. Ive talked to a few of their drivers and they say that they are pretty good. Not perfect, but not bad.

    Well I'd like to know why someone would even make a reply like this... After working here for 3 months it's safe to say there's nothing wrong with this company.... If fact there looking for a few good driver's with experience. If your new they may be willing to train the right person just call for info on how to apply.

    As far as not getting paid... That's a bunch of gabage. There was one time our pay was late but only if you had direct deposit & my bank stated it was due to a glitch in the federal system.

    However keep in mind there are different strokes for different folks. This is a 10-99 company. You will handle your own taxes. You will need to handle finding your own health insurance... The pay is good as long as your do your job... Everyone starts as a team...Solo drivers do work here but those drivers normally stay out over 8 weeks at a time & have over 1 year experience. Dispatch is always on duty... There always there to help a driver in need... They have a wonderful contract with a company that is about 50 percent drop & hook. The live loads are quick, I've never been at a facility over 2 hours for a reload or drop...

    They get 5 out of 5 starrs in my book as I've been self employed or 10-99 my entire life!!! If you can drive 500 plus miles a day & like high pay this maybe your kind of company to....

    It's all on what you put in... drive the miles, stay safe, take care of your equipment, & do what your told..... you will make $1000 every week or better... PLUS weekly fuel bonus for drivers with over a 5.5 mpg. And another bonus for teams running over I think 5500 miles per week. Yes you can & Will see checks $1500... It all depends on you.

    Call to apply

    1099 is illegal for company drivers. When are people going to realize that you're being taken advantage of with the 1099 bs.

    Lol. Actually, I've posted on this very subject last week. What makes a contractor a contractor. If you're EMPLOYED by a company, using company equipment, with the company telling you what loads to pick up and deliver and when, and they pay the fuel, maintenance, etc, then you are not a contractor. You are an employee. And you do not fall under the guidelines for a 1099. But you knew that. You also knew that if you stay out 8 weeks at a shot, and run at least 500 miles a day, and only making $1000 a week, without taxes taken out, you're really making no money. I just wanted you to know the amount of fail that you had in that post.

    I'm right. And that's wasn't opinion. That was fact. First page of this thread below are the rules for 1099.
