It's probably been covered

Who are your other offers from?

 

I would say Millis. They are a very good company.

 

4 days, & ~$100 if you are hired. free room/board during that week.

minimum of 35 days. Plan on 45 days because you will sit some days & wont get to a terminal the exact day you qualify to upgrade.

Pay is $450/week plus $0.01/mile if you have hazmat (~$50/week during training)

If your csa score is low & you have no preventables, you can upgrade to solo-capable at 3 months (from the date you tested out of training). Even if you stay team, the base pay goes up so test out if elligible.

For a hazmat driver that upgrades asap:

1-3 months: $0.17 per total mile (=$0.34/mile solo)
4 months: $0.18 per total mile
5-6 months: $0.21 per total mile
7-12 months: $0.23 per total mile

There is an additional $0.01/mile safety bonus paid every 3 months.

Non hazmat drivers make about 3cpm less...


Miles will depend on how hard you run, how long you stay out, how reliable you are, and how well you communicate with dispatch. You'll hear people getting anywhere from 3000 to 7000... I averaged 5000-5500, but had a week as high as 8200 and one as low as 3500.

you will also get $125 or $150 each month for tuition reinbursement.

If you work hard, are willing to team, & dont need to be home but once a month, Covenant will pay as well as anyone. Just remember to double team pay rates when comparing wages with solo companies because you'll get 17cpm for all 5500 miles the truck moves -- not just the 2750 miles you drove.

 

yeah, so during training it'll be about 500 total per week if you have hazmat (450 + 50)

 

Bert57nc, the hazmat upgrade pay is actually .02 per mile for all miles. That applies to students and experienced drivers. In essence, a 5000 mile week will pay you $450 plus $100 for hazmat or $550 total. The $450 is guaranteed, the miles are not. Everything else double yellow quotes looks right to me with the new pay raise that just went in place. Good luck!

 

Millis... all the rest of the questions have been answered but MILLIS is where you want to go.
