    I'm considering Schneider for the Regional position, I live in NC near Burlington. Could someone give me some info such as:
    home time, is it really weekly
    pay & average miles per week
    training period length
    And do Schneider allow you to park the truck at home while on home time

    As far as the training goes its around 17 days ( longer for bulk ). First week is classroom and driving you will stay in a hotel. Second week you go
    out OTR with a TE making deliveries and you live in the truck. The third week is more classroom some driving and your final tests on the
    computer, QUALCOMM, and driving.

    ok, trucks going home with a driver depend on how far that driver lives from a SNI OC, Drop Lot or other leased facility And that drivers DBL approving such.

    Cool, how strict is schneider as far as idle time, and what are the trucks speed governed at?

    60 on cruise and 65 with the pedal on the floor. Anything over 60 is overspeed and eventually they would talk to you about it. It also ruin your bonus.

    Can't idle between 30-70 degrees....I think somebody correct me... It will auto shut off if you do

    In van OTR trucks, the auto-shut down is between 10* & 80* F. But they all have a diesel bunk heater that will run with the engine off. A few trucks have a battery powered APU that also have A/C, and the shut-off is 10*-90*. But they are hard to get because drivers hold on to them.
