Any drivers here on the Swift Dollar Tree rapid deployment fleet?
I'm brand new to it and was looking for advice and your experiences with it.

there is a reason there are ALWAYS openings on that account.
-
Is it the labor part of the job? Or not making enough money?
-
Both. Crap pay for too much work. Here us a bit of perspective... Swift will pay a lumper up to 500 bucks to use a fork lift to unload your truck they will pay a driver only a fraction of that to do it by hand
-
Isn't it $25 for a driver unload?
I just had a 5 stop load, and one of the receivers wanted me to help out his guys with the unload.
I said that I wasn't getting paid to unload.
And I will NEVER get paid enough to unload a trailer!
If I see DUL/Y in the pplan, I refuse the load. -
I dunno bout you but 25 bucks for me to hand unload the same thing they will pay a lumper hundreds of dollars to do
-
It's $35 per intermediate stops. $135 per load. It's not too bad I suppose. I would say it takes me about 6-8 hours to unload, and with 2 stops that's $205...that's not bad money if you ask me. I just started the account so I haven't seen one full week yet on my check. But you earn every bit of $$$
-
I might do it if I got $250, but never for 1/10 of that.

He'll I refuse walmart dedicated runs unless they pay me what they pay the dedicated drivers. Swift often tries to cheat you out of pay. They pay a Walmart dedicated driver 35 bucks per stop but they often beg otr drivers to do them to only pay 15 a stop. Or when freight is bad or going the wrong way for home time they will send you a run that they know 100% you will decline to weasel it of layover pay.
