Gas hauling

Unfortunately, most gas hauling companies drug test randomly and for pre-employment purposes. A "weeding" will most certainly cause you to test positive for THC.

Haha, no really I know what you mean. It's like any other job. If they really need the drivers, they'll hold your job offer for you until after a wedding or honeymoon. Most companies won't just give you the time off right away unless for something like FMLA or worker's comp injuries.

 

Explain it to them up front when you hire out with them that if it will be a problem you'll have to start afterwards. A good company will work with you on something like that.

 

How many Load you can drop in one shift?
How much weight full load fuel tanker with tractor?
i am thinking of doing this need to know some facts before starting ..

 

Please answer my few questions about fuel delivery to gas stations. planing on going in to the tanker fuel delivery job.

How many load you can drop in a 14 hours shift? (day time vs night shift)
How much the tractor and tanker trailer with full load weigh?

thanks

 

It depends. If you're only staying within 20-30 miles of gas terminal you could get about 5-6 loads off within 14 hours.
If you're running 2.5 -3 hours out on each load u may get 2-3 loads done within 14 hours. Full load of gasoline depends on your tractor. A daycab can handle about 9000 gallons. Maybe 9200 but you would be pushing the 80k gross mark.
But a sleeper cab would need to scale it back to around 8k-8500 gallons.

 

I could only haul 7000 gallons of diesel an 8000 gallons of gasoline in my tractor.

 

Gas haulers around me haul 12,000 gallons.....

 

Thank you very much.
With 9000 g the axle weight will perfect. No sliding tandem like normal trailer?

How length is usually the tankers

 

Most are 45' and no sliding trailer tandems .....

Axle weight is another problem...
