    You don't have to switch your license in N.D., unless a person moves up there permanently.

    I hauled sand for the wells and it paid real well. some weeks 1100 some more some less. we were paid a percentage of the truck. you only need 6 months experience with some of them. But you better be ready to drive hard and be darn good at backing in tight places. I mean mirror to mirror backing and in small spaces. was great work lots of waiting to unload. that's where real money comes in its called detention pay and everybody lives for it. Had to leave because of health but would go back today if I could. easy work

    You want to work in ND, here's a couple of names you can get a hold of near Tioga, ND. Dalton Trucking and United Vision Logistics. They are located right on US2 between Williston and Minot.

    They have 2 camps on the edge of their yars, one 300 man and an 800 man plus 111 RV spots. They supply the accomodation. It`s oilfield hauling including rig moving and drilling supplies such as pipe and oilwell casing etc.

    The ad you are referring to is for oilfield Frac hands. Yes it's la-gite but be warned you will only drive for about 20 min to one hour a day the rest you will be working your a#$ of as a frac hand.

    If you want to get in the oilfield driving industry I suggest you get a Tanker indorsment and haul wast water. Or you could work for a HotShot company.

    I'm currently working for a hotshot company On call 24/7 I take home about $1000.00 a week. But i earn every penny of it.
