Hunt (not JB!) Transportation????

Are you a new driver? If you are .36cpm is not bad compared to other companies. If not a new driver, just what do you consider to be a good cpm?

 

My bad, I see you are a student.

Do the math. 2500-3000 miles a week at .36cpm

Not bad money before taxes. Just what do you expect to make as a new driver?

 

Nope, not a student, quote "laid off from Yellow Freight", so going from .55 cents per mile to .36 sucks. Been driving for 15 years, 2 years with Yellow. Oh well, I guess its better than working at McDonalds. Hometime is most important to me, would like to get home at least every two weeks, hopefully not every 6-8 weeks as quoted in another post-then I will work at McDonalds

 

Your right, .55cpm to .36cpm is low but it sure beats working at McDonalds any day of the week. 6-8 out is ok for a single person with no family to worry about but I also prefer home at least every 2 wks.

Good luck and I hope you dont have to resort to McDonalds.

 

Is there any current info on them here? Have talked to a few of there drivers they seem to be about 50/50 on good or bad. Was just wondering if anyone had any up to date info on them. Thanks.

 

What type of info are you seeking?

 

if they give you the miles.they manged to give me between 1700-2000 a week,and sit over the weekend.

 

Decent tractors, trailers are a bit on the old side.

 

Going from YELLOW to Crete or Shaffer would be a huge change, but you've been idle for a year, so your probably itching to get back out there! You have twice as much experience as I do and Crete started me out at .42 cpm (national) I know regional pays less.. Hometime is usually 3 weeks out minimum depending on where you live, with 1 day off for every 6 days out. Thats my only complaint but my paycheck makes up for it. Good Luck

 

Can anyone give me an honest overview of Hunt Transportation? I have been hauling O/D loads and didn't have any benefits. Just need vacation as I use wifes medical.
Will hunt actually get me home regularly or will I have a big fight to get home? Do their trucks have some kind of an Anti Idling system or do they use IdleAir?
I enjoy hauling O/D loads, as they can be a challenge, and don't want to get into a co. and have to play all the politics.Just do it old school, tell me when and where and I'll get it there.
