Hometime at May Trucking

So you have Amy as your DM. I'm sure you have talked to Jennifer thus far? You can find a truckstop close and go from there. You don't have to drive from the terminal.

 

If you have room at your house you can take the truck home.

 

When you get a truck, you will be assigned to a DM...probably Amy. and yes, like Kabar said...if you have room, you can take it home. I live in a subdivision so that's not an option for me. I park at a nearby truck stop and have the wife come get me.

 

how much time do they give you? one day for every week out? max 4 days? so even if you're out 6 weeks.. you get 4 days off?

 

For me there hasn't been a max. It's one day off for every week but I've driven 4 weeks and been home 6-7 days many times. I just tell them I want to go back out on whatever date I want (within reason). Sometimes it works, sometimes not. I don't think the max is 4 days though if you put in more weeks out.

 

this was my experience with them as well.

 

My hometime mirrors both Big Ray & Lovintruckin...
Also helps to have a very good DM who is willing to work with you.
You need to remember that they are a business that needs their
drivers to drive, if you dont try to abuse that you should have no
problems.......

 

reason I ask is that I was just out 5 weeks.. expected 5 days off... DM told me that 4 days is the max. that was news to me. I pointed out I'd been out 5 weeks.. she said "sorry, 4 days max". Now I think I may need to find out from someone a little higher up in the chain of command there. You guys are just confirming what I was thinking it was.
