Just wondering if there is anyone around here that has any firsthand knowledge of Button? Thinking about taking a job there, probably tankers on the Western Regional.

I worked for button for two years. Good company to work for. Great equipment. A mix between Petes and Volvos. Automatic transmissions. Very little sitting. Paid detention after 2 hours. I ran western regional. Western regional was 90% So Cal to Washington. Paid an extra $65 for crossing into Canada. $20 bucks every time you use the pump on the trailer. Mostly food grade with some liquid fertilizer.
DCFelipe Thanks this. -
How long were you typically out? How was the pay and miles?

Being that I live right off I-5 in Sacramento I was home every weekend and sometimes 1 week day a month. I never ran less than 3K miles a week. Button has freight! I was making 44 cpm plus all the accessory pay. Food grade pays by the mile, liquid fertilizer pays 25% of the load which averaged anywhere between 47-52 cpm.

I'm right off I-5 in Washington, about 45 minutes north of Portland, hope I could expect about the same. If so, I think I'm sold.

Yeah, you could very well be home that often. In the few times I decided to stay out on the road they always got me home when I wanted to be home. Taking time off isn't a problem either. They really are a family environment company.
