Walmart Dedicated

Some posters on this site say that is good money.

I am not in agreement with them.

 

I live in AL. driver and .33 and 1600-2500 is CRAP. They are making a ton of money pulling walmart loads but not sharing with the drivers. Look around u can do better.

 

Also $10/Stop first Stop doesn't count.
Unless they have a different Setup down there.

 

Thats decent money about $800 to $1000 a wk me and another driver ran for that DC for a few wks they ran us hard and kept us busy.

The stop pay makes up for lost miles average of 3 stops a night sometimes more and I ran over 3000 miles in a wk out of there.

Ehow them your a runner and run hard and ask for more thats how I have managed to to do good with Swift run run run and ask for more.

If ur not happy with a $1000 a wk as a company driver you. Better go be a.o/o and good luck with that.

 

Yes Swift driver I am a surge driver for Walmart DC so I make a bit more at my DC because I never joined the fleet I make $.32 to $.42 a mile average 2600 a wk and about 20 stops a wk all stops @ $15.

I dint join fleet my DC only pays $.29mile $10 stop 1st stop is $0

I average $1000-$1250 wk I have made upto $1500wk but Im a hard runner I love 650miles a day I noticed a lot of drivers only wanna run 250-300 a day and there happy not me Im out here to make money not happy anything under $900wk is a joke. And I only make under that on hometime wks I push for.more.and more I l ok ve 14hr days I have only worked 2days since the new rules started I was injured andunable to work so dont know how its going to work with new restart rule I burn my hrs every 6 days.

Personally the best way to do it is just be a surge driver u make more money but you can also be told we are short onloads and go back to otr anytime.

They keep lease drivers no nothing about pay scale for them though better the lease owners I know doing it do it because there is no mt miles all paid miles lds are always DC to Stop 123 to DC.

Walmart is a good place to work you are treated much better my DC knows me by 1st name no # needed thats my favorite part about it and I see home a l ok t more now.

 

I have been running Surge for Walmart since the first week of May. I am still making the .28 cents a mile since I am less then 6 months from hire and I am averaging right around $1000 per week. At the end of the month I get the .02 cent raise so that will add about $40. Plus right now is kind of a slow down after the 4th of July and into middle of August. I was told once the Labor day rush starts it doesn't stop until Christmas. go from Labor day bbq food right in to pumpkins into turkeys, and into hams. right now on single run days I am averaging around $125 for about 6 hours work. I also get about 2-3 double runs a week which add on another $250. I am making about $200 more per week vs being OTR plus I am not coming anywhere close to burning up my 70 I have been running nonstop since the 5th of July and just keep getting back hours every night and stay with about 16 hours at any given time.
