My new career with Superior Carriers begins!

Got a question about Superior Carriers: If I drive for them, on my days off would they allow me to live out of my company truck at my home Terminal? My car would be parked there. Schneider for one, allows drivers to do this at their Terminals.

 

I'm with rubberducky68--2 inch hoses are much easier to carry around than 3 inch ones, especially in the winter when those hoses get stiff. If the product is thin enough, it still unloads fairly quickly with 2 inch hoses. And if it's thick and takes a while? Well, that's what demurrage is for.

 

Thanks for the info. I am officially becoming a Texas resident, tomorrow, and will have Residence at my brother's house. He has invited me to stay with him during my off days. I'm just kind of independant so was hoping to stay in the truck more than with him. I can certainly adjust, though.

So, do Superior drivers remove all their possessions from their company truck each time they get back to the Terminal for their off days, knowing that another driver MAY use their truck, as you referred to, till they return from time off?

 

Thank you for your insight just started driving and hauling tanks.

 

As it happens, dispatch contacted me last Friday to tell me the local driver with whom I did my training when I was hired was going to borrow my truck on Monday morning. Knowing he has a good sense of humor, I decided to leave him a little prank. I rigged up a fake toilet across the seats, put a bucket underneath, and attached a hose and funnel to some five gallon jugs filled with water and yellow food coloring. Superior must not keep me busy enough, because clearly I have too much time on my hands.
