    How many miles were you guys getting on average as a regional driver?

    also if any of you were city drivers how many stops were you doing a day? I heard something crazy like 20+ stops. Not sure how you can do that many a day while trip planning for every stop. Seems stressful.

    I was a regional driver (truckload) about 10 or 11 years ago and I averaged 2500 to 2700 miles a week. A lot has changed since then, they have totally revamped the pay scale and pay a lot more for the extras as in short haul pay, multiple stop pay, ltl night runs, etc.

    As a city driver, how many stops you do depends on the route. Some routes may have 20 stops but you may only drive about 50 miles doing those stops. You might have a route that only has 7 stops but you may drive 150 miles. As far as trip planning, you get to know your area and stops quickly or ask the veteran drivers for tips.

    I have an interview with them coming up for CDL A qualified dock position. Do you guys get overtime? Is it more dock work than driving?

    I do not know what the Orlando drivers average a week, but I can tell you that Averitt does not have driver facing cameras.

    Former averitt p&d here, most stops you will get its 10 to 14 depending on the area couple pick ups and maybe a swap. (Depending how big is the svc)

    Dispatch doesn't bother you unless you call them.

    Overall is a good outfit to work for.

    @tscottme used to work there as well, he might chime info that I maybe missed.

    Good luck.
