Need input from ACT company drivers

Hey there Hank, yes I am a current co. driver for ACT. I'll be happy to help you any way I can.

 

Well the health insurance is phenomenal. BC/BS. I have the top package and it runs me about $140.00 a week. That includes vision, dental, short term and long term disability and even life insurance for both the wife and I. Home time is no problem. Just give them about a 7 day heads up. Miles could always be better, but we are entering the "slow" season. As long as I get around 2400 miles a week I'm happy. But that's about all the miles I need to take care of my bills. Co. trucks are set at 63mph on the floor and 66 mph on cruise. We don't run the northeast at all. We do go to north Carolina and South. As well as Georgia. The company as a whole is very good in my opinion. Send me a pm if you need anything else, I'll give you my number.

 

Did they ever implement the driver-facing cameras?

 

Yes most of the trucks have road facing and driver facing cameras.

 

Interested in info also. Just saw an opening where I live too. Wondering if it's local or OTR? How long do you stay out? Do they have local positions, the website says typical work is Monday - Friday. But the position said its OTR

 

Local would be if you lived in the KC. Mo area. We are a regional haul company. Basically just the Midwest. No east coast or west coast. No touch freight. Great health insurance plan, and 401k. They say that we can get 6 days off at home per month. Sometimes maybe a little bit more. I stay out an average of 17 days before I go home. Anything else just let me know.

 

Thanks for the info, how much would you say drivers gross per year?

 

I think I made $48,000. 2014 was better than this year. Idk why though.
