    I ran flatbed for Western. That was almost nine years ago out of school. They paid low compared but gave lots of miles. I never saw the house. Maybe they've changed since then, or maybe it's just because flatbed ran all 48. Five loads for 800 means getting screwed. That'd be ok if each load was 70 miles

    You would have to give them a call. The recruiters there are honest believe it or not. Just give them a call and ask. Hometime really just depends on whether they have the freight going by your house often enough. They would probably do 2 weeks out, 3 home as long as they have enough freight around where you live to do that. Only way to know is to call them.

    When I was there I got 2 days off for being out 11 Days. If you live near the 95 corridor you can be home every weekend or even for a 10 throughout the week. You won’t make any money if you go home every weekend. Anything over I think 1800 miles is paid .50cpm. So you get the $800 and everything after that is .50cpm. You don’t need to hit 5 loads and you rarely will.
