Solo company would be 34CPM. Not sure on team.
-
thats not bad for a new driver with no experience
-
What is the expected miles per week?
-
I was averaging from 2600 to 3200 miles per week my last year as a company driver. It will vary somewhat... especially after Christmas.
-
no joke start at .34 a mile,is that for flatbed,tanker,an reefer or does it vary from division to division?
-
Yeah it does... and it's 33 cpm to start. Higher in flats and tankers - due to the waiting time they incurr. There's also a premium paid in reefer division for running smaller tractors in the northeast (shorter runs).
If you do well on fuel, there's a variable fuel bonus tacked on too. Its possible to increase your rate from about 0.5 to a couple of cents per mile depending on how well you do week to week.Prostreet1 Thanks this. -
34 cents per mile = reefer
36 cents per mile = flatbed (plus $50 or $75 for tarping a load if needed)
41 cents per mile = tankertruckintime Thanks this. -
so is this is after your 30,000 miles
-
I'm pretty sure (and according to U2 who trains) that they set the starting rate for reefers at 33 cpm a couple of years ago.
This is the rate that you receive once you've tested out and are A-seat qualified.
