Transwood takes 33%, but you don't have to buy or lease a trailer - you pull theirs. Most companies take 20%.
I've seen owner/fleet ops paying drivers anywhere from 22-28% of net after contractor fees - some company drivers are hourly but you're probably gonna have a hard time finding any of those if you're a driver -
rookietrucker Thanks this.

Most of the guys that I've talked to, from various companies in Colorado and Pennsylvania, are taking home 1200-1800 a week depending on how long they wanna stay out. But for those that have never hauled sand, it can be boing at times. I say this because it's not at all unusual to sit on a location with a load of sand for 24-72 hours. Some guys have turned their sleepers into entertainment heaven, with dvd's, satelite internet, and cable radio. Others just read a good book or play cards with some of the other guys. So if a guy doesn't mind the boredom there is good money to be made in the sand hauling.
