no exp! help

what would everyone prefer as far as hauling? dry van or reefer?

 

here is the math. i was right about the 600 but it was a month not a week i am sorry.

WEEKLY Rates

medical for driver spouse and children $115.50
Dental for the same $13.28
vision for the same $5.14
personal articals $5.00
benevolence fund $1.00
disability $10.81
life $5.54
children is $.85

all together is $157.12 a week or $628.48 a month

 

it is all optional but i have a 4 year old that i want coverage for plus my wife is in her 20's and needs both her hips replaced. hopefully before her knee goes out.

 

I got out of trucking school at a local community college in November 2009, drove seasonally at a local cooperative hauling dry bulk fertilizer...now for the financial survival of my family, I have no choice but to go OTR. I need to find a company who has decent insurance, some hometime, etc.

I have an Iowa Class A CDL with doubles and tanker. I'm not doing HAZMAT. Nooooo way. Are there any companies that I can start making money with NOW, not 2 or 3 weeks from now?

 

I'm not sure, I may have read incorrectly, since I'm half asleep here. But.. did you say the conviction was AS a minor, or for buying for a minor? (According to them, at least, as you said you didn't even buy the stuff). If you were a minor, last I checked, any criminal records from before age 18 should not even be able to be accessed, so that seems quite.. wrong to me. If it was the latter, I apologize for reading it wrong, but I agree that trying to get it taken off of your record, which you may be able to do with some work, would be worth a shot.

 

These companies are mills or what ever people are calling them nowadays just use them to get experience and move on,just my opinion..I talked to FMCSA on wednesday and they told me the big carriers like these and even fedex are the ones pushing for eobrs and all the other crazy rules we are possibly dealing with...
