    tmc pays deadhead if on CPM pay plan at the same rate as usual except if you are deadheading home. On the percentage pay plan the first 150 "bounce" or deadhead miles are free.

    If bounce is more than 150 miles, you get paid for all miles, not just those over 150.

    I only loaded in LA a few times but that doesn't matter. You are in the middle of any freight that travels from FL, GA, SC, etc to TX, NM, NV, or even CA. Even freight going from TX up into the northeast can get you home, so you don't have to worry about getting home most of the time.

    mDub - Right in your backyard. Let me know if there are any questions I can answer for you. Been with TMC since Sept and glad I got on board with them.
