    I currently drive for Maverick and am looking at other flatbed companies such as TMC. Any idea what the pay rate is? I make .49$ at Maverick. Is it reasonable to expect the same or lower with two years experience? Thank you.

    I can tell you that you won't make that at TMC.. or Lonestar. Many drivers jumped from TMC to Lonestar.. and they started out, generally, at .42 at Lonestar, which I was told was higher than TMC.. but one of them would have to verify that for you to be sure.

    I truly didn't know Maverick paid that much. But our % is the best out there(tmc). You would start at 27% and then it would be up to you after the first month. It goes up to 32% but its tuff to get up there. 29-30% is very abstain able . Which I run specialize and your jaw would probably drop if you seen my pay checks.

    No your mileage rate would be lower but on percentage you would average more. I just figured my last two weeks and over that period I average 62.5 cpm.

    Two years ago, I started at .40$, and was given a raise of .03$ every 6 months. With the performance package, I make .54$. I also haul glass. Where are the TMC yards at?

    this is just straight funny. But you are right most that can't make it at TMC end up at Maverick. But if a guy applies himself and knows how to hustle there is a huge difference in a tmc to maverick pay check. Huge.

    alot must have changed in 4yrs because I done percentage and cpm with them would have to go back and look but avg was 800-900wk. keep in mind this was 2008-part of 2010. they never done me wrong but money wise my .50-.56cpm depending if I have a student, is much better constant 1100-1300 banked each week.
