    Estes representative here. On a schedule line haul run, you'll make NO LESS than 75K gross. Where I'm at, that's actually a 6 hour run.

    @UturnGirl Have you considered pulling a dump trailer? Home everyday. You'll make about the same money and not have the OTR expenses. Just a thought.

    I haven't seriously inquired about home every day because frankly, my house is only a 2 tiny bedrooms and there really isn't alot of room. Until I can scrape this old mobile home off my property and replace it with a shiny new 3 bedroom, I prefer out at least 5 nights. But in a couple more years... God willing and the creek don't rise. Thank you for suggestion. I will tuck it away for future reference.

    Well. Nothing is easy. Even though my med card is good until June, I can't find the rest of my long form for anything. All this slip seating and truck changing has taken a toll.
    Wfx demands original long form so I can't even get dr to send copies. Gotta go get a new exam between last day tni on Thursday and orientation on Monday. Busy busy busy.

    JK Williams is and end dump company with weekend hometime and stellar equipment, like @NightWind ive pulled end dump for years and wouldn’t consider doing anything else, it’s good money, and little to no sitting around.
