How many miles u running? Are you getting tons of detention or something?
Im running 3 weeks before doing a 34 reset, and back out. No home time. And still grossing 1065$ max. And that is at 41cpm.(39per diem) . Im only getting 1900-2000 miles per week.19d Thanks this. -
Where are you out of? I'm gonna guess savanah ga? I say that cause I've heard guys say they don't run as hard as me. Also the longer you stay with snbc your miles should get better. A lot loads require 6 months and some a year experience, so you can do those yet I'm guessing. It will get better for you I believe and if it doesn't. Get that experience and find somewhere that is better for you. But for now keep grinding. Ok back to miles a week, I started 2 weeks ago on a Monday and 6 days later I had to do a reset cause I was basically out of hours and I only record driving, fuel and pre trips so I ran really hard that week. I will start keeping track of miles next week. I usually try to unload for 3 hours and get 45 bucks for it. Especially if I have time to the tank wash and not doing a new job till the next morning. No reason to rush unloading in this situation, if that makes since. -

I run out of gary. I think you are right though about being based out of the south. I talked to alot of drivers from houston, etc that get sent up north(all the freight is up here), and then turn back down south, for time off. So it seems like they get the longer loads. Whereas, im based out of gary so they dont want to send me south. They save those loads for the guys that live there? It would make sense..
They have me moving clean emptys around and doing local pre-loads lately. I want to tell them no, but need the experience and dont want to rock the boat just yet..lol. Ive been here for only a couple months, so hopefully it gets better. -

I'm not sure how they get the distances from location to location. I know it's zip code to zip code but is this in a straight line, like as the crow flys. This really is incorrect and screws us drivers over bad. It's like when your in Coraopolis TW and u need to go to Elwood city to grab a preload. The job says it's like 17 miles, so that's what we get paid to get their 17 miles worth of pay. But no matter which way you go their is like 34 miles. So you drive double the miles to get their. I use this as an example because it's the worst difference in miles that I recall. Sometimes jobs aren't bad, a 900 pay mile run and only drive 926 miles. Sometimes I drive 2 extra hours for free.. I know this is just trucking and part of it. I'm just saying it sucks lol.. anybOdy agree(

Oh and my first couple of months I did some good loads but alotbof trailer moves, I think this is something all new drivers go through. So don't sweat it.. just keep safe and learn maneuvering that trailer better and better. Once u hit 6 months and a year you can do pretty much any load they have at that time. And ones we can't do we drop off for locals to do
