Driving a cargo van is a dream job compared to big trucks.

Can't you strap it to the roof?

 

simple....

 

I've seen this with my own eyes..the flying hook in phoenix it was 108°F in the shade

OP:

I've seen sprinter drivers with custom built beds, high dollar folding sofas, foam mattresses, air mattress, folding cots and multiple things in between...it is all about just how comfortable you want to be..do a quick google search you'll find some great ideas..good luck.

 

old sarge army store has cots that fold up.

 

You sleep on the floor.

For local work, it seems to be a good thing, home every night and making more than minimal wage. But OTR in a van, did that and hated it. Unless you get paid percentage and the company actually charges real money for the load, you can starve quickly.

 

Long enough to know to move to something else to make more money.

I owned my own van, no payments it was bought with cash and it was cheap. My first year gross was over $65k. But since there too many little mom and pop companies getting involved, the work dropped off within a year.

My typical week?

There wasn't any, ever week was different and because I was on percentage of the gross, I didn't care if it was 5 miles or 500 miles, it was the amount of money that the run made that counted.
