1700ish a week not bad for that if thats what u get, wonder if it's resets at home on weekendsrotro13 and nextgentrucker Thank this.
-
Dedicated? Yeah I wouldn't mind doing that, I could do that in 3 days, maybe throw in some bonus in that, I'd be golden.rotro13 Thanks this.
-
yup she says resets at home every week going to all the Georgia pacifics (paper plant). not sure if those are a drivers worse nightmare or an actual decent shipper lolnextgentrucker Thanks this.
-
hey bro u done any georgia pacific loads?
-
Wouldn’t take much stock in GP, two major closures in the last few years, Perry FL, and Cedar Springs GA is set to close in August.
-
Georgia Pacific? I use to pick up sheetrock from the plant in Savannah, Georgia, it was decent but that was flatbed though, I don’t know about Dry Van. Honestly, If I ever left Tanker for Dry Van it would be for a dedicated route. At least I know that my paycheck would be somewhat consistent.

I've done those with May. Yes they can be a nightmare. At least half the time the loads were never ready..or u had to wait to unload. Spent quite a bit of time on back roads in southern Bama , Georgia, and Florida which I didn't mind much. That one GP in Palatka Fla was always a pain. If you make the miles they say U will it might be worth a try
I did it about a year and just kind of got burned out on it because the pay there just wasn't worth it ( lucky I cleared 800 a week)
The time I went to some paper mill in west Alabama, can't remember which one, waiting all day to unload sitting next to the stinky porta potties and piled up trash..thats the day I decided it was time to move on. Maybe with PTI its worth a try, keep us updated if u do ..good luck!Last edited: Jul 19, 2025
