Indian River Transport, Co. - Winter Haven, FL.?

It really doesn't sound like a horrible company to me.

 

they are not horrible its just old school Trucking. You dont complain and work that book you will turn some serious miles.

 

Sounds good to me.

 

I like it!! only going to do a year here though... nothing against the company, i just gotta get back into my own truck..

 

I live in Citronelle Al team with my wife we run 80% east coast but you go to same places most directions on q com are good no NYC or Long Island

 

well i am back at the house for my 10 leaving back out at 4 am to be in ft pierce guess going back up i ran ti johanna farms then hurricane came so they sent me to spruce creek then to dairy fresh nc then empty to montzauma ga then told me to bring trailer to yard to be washed out there was a bunch of us in johanna when the storm came thru it was nasty so far its going good one thing i like is you dont get all them phone calls from dispatch like other companys hey act i thank you for the directions i tired of them tolls even thought we get money back just one less thing to keep up with i just have to learn all these places like loading and unloading times if i can get 2500 to 3000 ill be happy anyway yall be safe

 

waiting for some clothes to dry, then off to the terminal to get ready for Jersery.. Hopefully traffic isn't too bad. Anyone have any ideal if the port is back up.. Someone said we were running all of these Ft. Pierce loads up to Johanna because the port is down and they need to keep the juice flowin..

I'm just trying to figure out if i should expect to deadhead back down to Florida, or prepare for Canada.. Everyone keeps saying the price of fuel is outright silly up there.

 

Sorry for interrupting y'alls party but Socal, you're a fool to think that you can even try and talk all this bs about how many miles you can rack up toting around the IRT banner. I played the food-grade game myself years ago and when you're getting paid squat, you have no choice but to be creative and constantly run, run, run.

Numbers don't lie and yep, in my first 63 days here at Heniff I only made $11,298 gross for 18,258 hub miles, but eight of those days were spent off enjoying time with my family and friends. Not resets done on the road in a truck stop, not merely just passing through the house but actual, scheduled time off.

Point is Socal, YOU aren't grossing $5,600+ a month over there with quality home time, with good, affordable health insurance and a real benefit package to boot, and you never will. Especially not if you are running 100% legal by-the-book using an E-log. Yeah I know, you and so many like you are absolutely scared to death of that thing. Don't worry driver, it won't hurt you.....ROTFLMFAO!

 

I worked at IRT when I was laid off from Reddaway.

So dont worry Driver I am back to my $83K a year job and home every weekend. I do not get on here and tout my job but you seem concerned for me that I am working to hard. So don't worry I am not. I go from L.A. To Las vegas then in Vegas I hook up a third box and Run Triples up into Utah. Then I sleep in a hotel and come back. I have a 3/2 bid which means I do 3 rounds one week and two the next. On a 3 trip week I gross $2,000 and on a 2 trip week I gross around $1400.

So thanks for your concern and keep driving that truck empty for free.

By the way what does a empty tank Last containing Haz Mat Residue Pay??

 

Don't get laid off again lol.

You being a teamster boy says it all. But yet ya wanna compare apples to oranges. How many non-union OTR outfits are going to give their driver the opportunity to make $65,000 a year and have a week off every month?
