Brand new team O/o weekly rates prediction

You're talking about running board freight with a dispatcher for team dry van work:
with a plan like that, you don’t need to worry about consistent work. You gonna be filing chapter 7 before your first oil change.

For real for real.

Posters saying you'd make more running team or separate as company hands ain't lying- I’d step that up and say if you worked minimum wage 50 hours a week you'd be money ahead over this plan.

 

how bout grossing $4k a week at 2800 odometer miles? Lot more likely following the battle plan listed in the first post

 

Aaah- what do you know.

 

ODFL pays a team over 93cpm on W2 as a company driver. And you're home weekly. Full benefits. Read this sentence again.

Don't be the 'busy idiot'.

Sounds like a great lack of a business plan.

If you're a legal US citizen, there a plenty of team driving jobs that . . . well, wait - what is your immigration status? Just out of curiosity?

 

Is it 93 cents per driver or split? I always thought it was the American way to split the cpm. Or I am simple minded, some of my freinds tell me often.

 

When it is this high CPM it is split/.93 per mile that the truck travels, which is .93 per mile driven if both drivers drive equally. I have seen some carriers post the split rate but it’s still the same pay. Roughly $1 a mile per mile driven is hard to beat for a company driver. Generally the company splits the total miles equally between the two drivers even if one may drive a few more miles than the other because of the way the drivers choose to switch out on the trip.

 

Is 6000 miles posible for that odfl team? That would be $6000 /2 $3000 each driver gross.

 

I assume they are like most team operations where miles generally are in the 5,000-6,000 a week vicinity. Some folks bid short runs and others want the money of 6,000 miles or better. UPS is the team runs I am most familiar with as I ran them off and on for 10 years. @blairandgretchen ran them at Old Dominion.
