Hello I need some advice , so I have a load from ca to tn , deliver was for today 6/29 at 1200 at Amazon in Memphis. I arrived to facility to check in for a live unload when I got to the guard shack they told me my delivery appointment been canceled , I’ve been waiting the entire day. My dispatcher told me they’re working on getting me a new appointment , she told me the only appointment available is for 7/5 . That is 6 total days the expect me to wait , plus a whole day getting unloaded at Amazon . What should I do ?

Yes I’ve been searching for a new company for the past month , so what’s your advice , if I wait here what should be a reasonable amount of money I should get paid ?
-
I would seek out whatever financial benefit you can from the company you are currently with and I would spend the time looking for a new company to work for. Having to wait that long is insane.

Yes sir would that be considered detention pay or layover pay ?
-
That's why I pull containers we get detention $75 hr or bring load back and still get paid
-
I'd say a fair rate would be at least $200 a day.
