guys that haul asphalt is by the hour owner ops that haul dirt or gravel get paid by the ton or the load hopefully the boss doesn’t push you to rush because one bad accident and there goes your driving career
GTA local hourly rates are garbage

Either way I'm just trying it out, within another week I will know more and make a final decision.mudflap77 Thanks this. -
one thing i hated when i had my own truck doing asphalt was the long days never knowing when you were done . getting up at 430am and getting home at 9pm sucked . then you work nights and you might only work 6 hrs . i don’t miss it one bit and at $78 a hr with fuel prices going up my dad is not making any money
dancecanyon and Canadianhauler21 Thank this. -

I despised the truckS as they
had no air ride on cab, Hope that’s not your case, took November lay-off and went to hauling chips for 3 weeks, then line haul since
The idiots rushing around like maniacs might get one extra load in, or have accidents and go to Flagman schoolLast edited: Aug 6, 2021

If you guys in the GTA are considering dump trucks or trash, why not look at ready mix ?
There are 4 companies that pay $28 hr to start, $29 after probation and after 2 years $33.*
Just need a DZ, and be able drive stick.
Time and a half after 8 hrs a day, and all day on saturday, double time after 9:00 pm. Dental,drugplan ,vision and a pension plan.
I can tell you the downsides if you are interested, too
Pete
*the current top rate, if you start now the top rate in 2 years will be about $35hr
