    I'm currently being paid in Trident Layers chewing gum, typical net for company drivers is (allegedly) 60-80k, 100k+ for owner ops. It could work out for me eventually, but I'm keeping my skeptical goggles on tight until I see the money.
     
    Badmon and Rideandrepair Thank this.

    I ran my tractor under NAVL’s authority when i was working with Triple Crown Service ,

    we had several bedbuggers move to the TCS fleet , to be home most every night and not have to hump furniture all day up stairs and long carry’s etc .

    Nothing I'd rather be doing, to be honest.

    I have a decent home time arrangement with my agent (out 5 days max), just have to find out if that time range still works out for me dollar-wise.

    There are so many variables with the moving business that it's hard to estimate what my income will actually look like, even after talking to the veterans.

    I’m glad you like it.
    I’ve hired local Movers a time or two when we moved , and we had some heavy furniture that had to be moved to the third floor .
    And a upright piano that got
    Moved to the second floor

    household movers have my respect.
