Schneider tanker

Hope someone gives you a good reply because i have the same questions as you

 

I am curious as well. I am undecided between Schneider or Prime tanker division.

 

I just started with Schneider tanker last month, I am in my 3rd week of driving. Yes, they are still having some issues with workflow, however, imo it is getting somewhat better. I haven't really had very many miles, however, I have had some stuff I had to take care of at home so I haven't had enough time to actually hit the road, but I do have a couple of guys that I started with that are getting close to the 2,000+ miles per week that we were told by the recruiters. The accessory pay that I can remember are $25 per load/unload, anything over 2 hours you get detention pay which is $2.50 per 15 minutes, layover pay is $65 after 24 hours, and $40 for a short haul.

 

Once things settle and office staff fully understands the changes and what they have to do on their end it works well.

Have heard of some lost business and that will be a challenge for SNI to work through.

Might not be a bad time for new inexp drivers to come aboard. While loads might not be as frequent as normal, new guys can get their feet wet in a more relaxed way?

 

Yes SNBC is hiring in full force. All the ten plus year drivers are now gone and they are aggressively trying to fill those vacant trucks. Great place to learn the ropes and as soon as you fulfill any obligations with Schneider, you will be a great position to move on to more lucrative paying jobs. Bulk is the only way to go and Schneider will get their workflow ironed out soon. They're only hurting themselves with all the kinks and bugs.

 

Work flow problems are mostly worked out. March was a terrible month, but it was mostly back to normal in april. Ill have 3300 miles when i finish this week. They also gave everyone a raise to make it somewhat more competitve with other tank companies to try and keep drivers from leaving, should be at .51 or .52 cents a mile after a year.

I just wish they would govern these trucks at 65, 60mph is way to slow.

 

I got bumped to 0.41 cpm.
