My apologies for being away so long and just saw your questions. If you’re still wondering, things are going well here at H&M, just passed my 8 year mark (past 6 as O/O) I average just over 3,000 miles per week

- A fridge (super weird to me that this even needs to be said).
- A power inverter, preferably 1800 watts (so that I can make my own coffee, and heat my own food).
- Either an APU or no idling policy, as I sleep days and run nights, and the truck interior gets unbearably hot starting in the spring. I need to be able to keep the AC on.
- No inward facing cameras. Preferably no company cameras at all.
- No or minimal "safety" alarms (that I find wildly unsafe).
- Hauling 53' Dry Van.
- Oh, another thing I think is weird that requires mentioning, but a company that doesn't forbid the drivers from using a bluetooth headset.
APU... Yes
Inverter...Yes
Outward only camera
No nanny systems. Camera will pick up stop signs and stop lights. No microphone on camera. Outward video only.
Dry Van only
Bluetooth headset....Yes
2+ years experience will get you $.50 cpm. Additional penny for all miles if you have HM Endorsement. Additional $.02 safety bonus potential. No short hauls. We do run into Southern California. Easy to get 3000+ miles per week.BeHereNow97 and CoveringBases Thank this. -

1. Where do you guys fuel at do you fuel at Love's or fuel enough at Love's (if you have forced fueling solutions) to get the unlimited monthly shower pass there?
2. Qualcomm or PeopleNet or something else?
3. Do they have any terminals within an hour drive of Charlotte, NC and if not what do you do about finding hometime parking, find parking yourself I guess?
4. Do you get per diem?
5. What would you estimate your average length of haul is per load?
6. What speed are the trucks governed at?
