Walmart truck driving

Can anyone explain their dispatch procedures? Your out 5.5 days so do you have to return to your D.C. for your 34 or for those that live a number of miles out can they the reset at a D.C. A little closer to home?

 

The truck comes back to the DC. You leave the truck there. There is different programs that they have. There is the regular 5/2 that is 5 days out and two days home. This what most drivers start on. Then the 5/2-5/3 that is 5 days out 2 home then 5 days out 3 days home this program has 3 drivers and 2 trucks. Then there is a 6/3 6 days out 3 days off this also has 3 drivers and 2 trucks. There are meny more but this is the basic programs.

 

That's a big 10 driver! Thanks..

 

I applied December 2nd, road tested the 16th and was told yesterday I was hired and orientation is January 16th. It can go really fast.

 

250 miles from the D.C. You are applying to work from

 

Not hard to get in with them anymore. Their website used to say 10yrs experience, last time I saw a position open up near me it said 1yr. Since the Tracey Morgan thing I guess they've become so bad to work for they can't keep people.

 

Says 30 months now

 

Do Walmart trucks have automatic transmissions?

 

There is a few automatics but the majority are manual .
