Crst lease/ purchase (dry van)

I thought about going to crst to get some exp and then transfer to crst malone they offer wht i really want to do flatbeds

 

C R England only lets you solo as a lease operator, because even c r e knows u can't make it work as a solo.

 

Your profile says you are a student. Does your school have some carriers they place for? I would try that route first. Just keep in mind, right out of school your probably not going to retire with the first company you drive for. There are dues to pay no matter where you go. You will most likely have to make some consessions the first company you work for. You will need a few years of experience to really understand what is a long term fit for you.

 

I was just wondering why the OP includes the fuel surcharge in the "pay" breakdown and not in the "fuel" breakdown? FSC is for helping controll your fuel cost, not as a direct in your pocket pay. There is a profit margin, you just have to work within it. I leased (not at CRST) and I did pretty well at it. I didn't idle my truck unless it was hotter than 90 and colder than 40. That helps a lot. Anyways, just a question. Thanks

 

I wouldn't drive for either one of them if I could help it. It sounds like you want to go flatbed. I would consider WSE. Go to comcar.com and check out training opportunities. You might get hired out of the Boise, ID terminal. Or consider TMC over CRST or England.

 

Unless things have changed there, There is no transfer you would have to Quit CRST VAN to go to CRST Malone

 

Cause its part of the rate per mile pay. Breaking it down to make your fuel look cheap is a silly thing. Rate is $x.xx per mile, fuel cost "your average" / price you pay. That's how you break it down.

Nice how they "give" him 6 cent per gallon discounts when their true discount probably averages 20 cents or more below.

 

I was at 87cpm plus avg surcharge and I would net on average 51cpm pre tax.

 

Neither....
