They have tons and tons of trailers due for PM’s all the time and you run literally 14 hours a day/ three loads a day for 1300 gross weekly. I hooked up to a trailer to deliver that had a brake shoe 2 inches off the drum and bent. So many trailers I’ve had to red tag it’s insane! Seen many come and go due to tractors not having annual inspection stickers done and breaking down. Luckily, I got a new tractor. Avoid like the plague!

 

Don’t go to Cedar Rapids area then. When I was still working there I got a message on their app saying they were almost in the level for DOT intervention. Plus, it’s a big company and you are just one driver who runs that equipment near their headquarters.

 

For 1050 take home a week? you think that’s good! That’s trash for the hours and miles you work.

 

550 to 600 miles a day

 

It’s a industry problem. The price of consumerist junk is going up but not the drivers pay. It’s bs. Add Brandon to the list of problems we have to worry about and pretty soon the industry will just collapse under its own weight.
