Inside With Hirschbach

Yup. I'm still at Hirschbach. The lease is walk away and as far as fixed expenses.....- Prepass($ 2.00)($ 72.00)52 - Truck Payment($ 621.73)($22,382.28)53 - OCC/ACC Ins($ 26.08)($ 938.88)55 - Physical Damage Ins.($ 157.00)($ 5,652.00)78 - Bob Ins New($ 7.62)($ 274.32)84 - License-LP($ 44.00)($ 1,584.00)86 - HVUT-LP($ 11.00)($ 396.00)Deductions$ 869.43)

 

Do they pay fsc or is .99 cent fuel basically overule that? I live in newburgh ny n was thinkin bout lookin into the dedicated maine, nj pa and ma routes would be great for me. Can u do a couple short hauls per day to get that higher rate per mile.. Say like 3 150 mile runs per day? Or is it a constant loop from maine to pa to nj to ma back to maine n do it again. Also is there a sign on bonus still n is the quarterly safety bonus for real? And how much. Thanks for your time just tryin to get info from ppl actually doin it n not ppl who did it 6 years ago n got screwed..lol

 

869 per week for all fixed expenses? Thats not nearly as bad as most other companies at 12-1500 all fixed per week. Plus .99cent fuel 4-500 gallons per week. $13-1400 per week all expenses including fuel sounds like a great deal to me. Do they pay empty miles too if dispatched to pickup load? And do they only offer prostars or do they have any cascadias? The prostar is a cummins or maxxforce? Dont mean to blow the top of ur head off with all these questions but this is very intriguing to me. Thanks

 

The .99 fuel only applies if you follow their routing and don't go more than 5% over...sounds like company drivers paying the company to drive.

 

Well isnt that something...Now why would they go and do that..takes the shine right out of the looks of this deal...theres always something that destroys these lease deals. Im researching every company n so far the sni choice program is the undisputed king for me besides gettin ur own truck n goin to landstar. ATS is next to research i heard they have a load board n good 1 year lease to test the waters.

 

I'm thinking about going with them too..

 

Okay. So you drive 3000 miles this week. 5% out of route would be 150 miles. So let's say you wanted to take a different route than was given on a particular trip and went 200 miles out of route total. You'd have to pay 12.50 for the OOR miles. No big deal. Or you could just call your Dm and say hey. Re route me through such and such cities and not pay anything, but get the extra pay on miles. People tend to not think outside the box and crap all over a company that really is awesome, because they have been so jaded by other carriers

 

Thanksbfor clarifying that for us..dont sound that bad n im actually liking this deal alot..how is the maine dedicated for lease operator? Do u really get direct tv etc thanks
