Anyone have details on this account ? Regarding # stops, specifically what the driver has to unload at the stops, how unloading is done - roll trainers etc ? and how it's paid, maybe what the avg weekly pay is. They pay weekly right ? I am aware it's suppose to be all terrible and such. Not worried about the negative part lol. Appreciate all input though
how much different is it compared to the dollar general out of Ardmore ?

Just talked to a recruiter about this account last week. Looks like it's hand unload. There's a guy on you tube with a video doing an unload on one of those accounts. Sorry don't have much more info for you.

I worked this for about a month. All hand unload, 3 to 5 stops per load, I was with a trainer so I only got paid trainee pay 350.00 a week. You have to be able to back off of busy streets and into tight spots.
I quit Werner...well, because it was Werner! There are better companies out there!
just my 2 cents. -
Well, backing is what you make it. I see it as a challenge.
Thanks for for the feedback.
I think there is several companies out there handling these accounts from what I have read.
Thanks again ! -
No specific details for that dc but I run the surge account for Werner now. Haven't ran family dollar yet but have exp with dollar tree and dollar gen. From what I'm told family dollar is basically the same as the dollar tree. It is hand unload, no rolltainers. Individual boxes stacked from floor to ceiling, unloaded via rollers. Very labor intensive, to be successful you need to move about 500 pieces per hr. I'm on surge so my pay varies so can't help ya on that but I do know that most guys I talk to on dollar tree and dollar gen were avg any where from 700 - 1000 wk. pay really depends on you and how fast you can get empty to get another load. Heard a rumor that family dollar was going to rolltainers but haven't been able to confirm that yet. Hope this helps a little.

That helps a lot !
Thank you so much for taking the time to provide feedback. -

Find a LTL company, P&D. We finger print and have multi-stops and have great wages / benefits / pensions.
My company pays Overtime after 8 hours / 40 hours for the same finger printing. Sir, You are getting screwed getting into bed with this service from werner.
LTL companies do hire fresh out of school with CDL all endorsements.
At least get the wage that is earned, non of this mega crap pay.
More questions? We are a friendly bunch over in the LTL / Local forum
