I'd appreciate any thoughts on Schneider and A. Duie Pyle for new drivers. A key factor is predictable home time as I balance family. Any other thoughts would be helpful. I live near Worcester, Mass. Thanks.

I drive intermodal out of the Shrewsbury MA yard. I love it so far. You can make good money. I grossed $1347 without even trying. They will keep you running. As far as home time you will get set days off. I work tues-sat. I normally get home Saturday at 4pm. I run NE regional. If you live in or near Worcester you can be home a few times during the week on top of your days off. Some guys get home every night. I live to far to make that happen. Hope this helps
Surfer Joe Thanks this. -

No I'm an experienced driver. Like I said you will get the same 2 days off a week. If you plan right you can be home just about everyday. Its a good place to work. They take care of the Intermodal drivers. Your day starts and ends at the rail yard in Worcester unless you get stuck at a customer who takes forever to load.
Peterbilt15 Thanks this. -
Ok, thanks for the quick reply and additional thoughts. Good to know.

I see Schneider looking for intermodal drivers around where I live, Scranton, PA area. The pay they have listed is like $980 a week but home every day. Does that sound right? Seems like a big difference from the $1300 you are making. Any information about the Scranton/Wilkes barre, PA area would be great.

Any one with intermodal experience out of Green Bay, WI? I will be leaving the military in a few months and this looks like something I would like to do.

I've only worked intermodal for Schneider. Night shift local is the big money maker in Chambersburg. Not sure what the others are making, but on nights I usually gross between $1,500 - $2,500 per week. My biggest week I ran 6 days and grossed $2,645 and was home every day. My only complaint is that we only run out of the CSX yard. We would have much more freight opportunity if we could pull out of the NS as well.
