    Anyone here run the dollar General dedicated route? Or the regional route? I live in Shreveport, LA and was wondering which position I should apply for. Which sound be the option. Does anyone have a realistic idea of how much someone can bring home with either account? Any help would be much appreciated.

    From all the post on this site about that account it's a bad idea.

    Do a quick search

    That's the only dedicated route they offer in my area.

    Dedicated accounts aren't always better.

    I was on the DG account in Scottsville,Ky for 19 months
    I made right at 58k last year on it but guaranteed I earned every penny of it.
    definitely not an account for someone that don't want to work hard
    being on a dedicated you will always be on the move and earning.
    on regional tl I have been told that miles are good some weeks and others not
     
    Cbohn7885 Thanks this.

    What are you doing now? Were you home on the weekends like advertised or out for extended time? Average miles/stops?
