Anderson Trucking Service. My true experince.

I went from Illinois to North Carolina, took some communications tower stuff. Got 12 load offers, I took another load of reels to Iowa. I'm loving this job. I love the kinds of freight we haul, also having many choices where to run. Still learning where to run, like where we have good freight and no freight. Will updat again soon.

 

I pay about $753 a week for truck and insurance, and whatever. I also pay $75 a week escrow. Maintenance is .028 cpm. I may be forgetting something. I always figure about $1000 a week comes out, then fuel, of course. I do ok, I'm still learning where to run, so I expect my money to get a lot better. I haven't went in the hole, not even close. I only had 2 paychecks so far. I'm not going to disclose my take home pay, that's personal. I really don't see a need to. I'm not a recruiter. I'm just telling how I'm doing here. Sorry, if that is not what anyone is looking for. What I make is going to be different from someone else. I'll update what is happening though. I'm on my way out to Portland,Or. Load of steel building parts. I hope everyone is staying safe and warm.

 

When I have time, I will post my average per mile. I just want to have like a monthly average.

 

I made it in and out of Portland, Or. Picked up a rgn trailer in our yard in Washington. Not sure the name of the town. South of Seattle. Anyway ,I got a electrical motor, I'm going to Tulsa,Ok. I will never go to the nw in the winter again, I'm so ready for spring! I picked up in Paterson, wa , 17,000 lbs. Pays 1.46 to the truck. Not bad for the nw.

 

Txqtrucker, I haven't had a negative experience at all with anyone here at ATS, everyone I have meet or talked to have been very professional, and treated me like a professional. This is truly the best company I have ever been around. Good luck! Lonestar looks like a very good company. I thought about going over there also, but I wanted a lease truck for a while, I have my own reasons for that. I hope it works out good over there.

I did pm you, I love it here. I haven't talked to any of our drivers out here on the road, or been around any. Me personally, I take take a whole lot of stock in what a driver tells me about anything, to many stories. Lol. I did talk to one driver, he had been here 20 something years, I quess that tells you something. I almost forgot about him. That's a lot of money down to take a chance, I don't plan on ever leaving here myself. I want to work my way up into heavy haul. I really hope everything works out good for you.
