    Hello all. I am scheduled for Prime orientation on January 4th. I'm going to drive tanker, and am wondering if anyone here is familiar with Prime's OTR tanker division as far as miles/week or average take home pay. I plan on starting as a company driver.

    Thanks !

    Sorry, cannot help you out on tanker side. Maybe one of our other guys will chime in.

    But, nonetheless, want to wish you the best on trying to come out here.

    Good company to start with in my experience. It will be what you make of it. So, keep your focus & eye on the end goal.

    Born & raised bit outside of Cleveland. So, Buckeye to Buckeye....... good luck to you!

    We run a lot out your way.
    More towards Illinois and then towards the Northeast.
    But anywhere they can grab a contract.
    I run mainly out of the north jersey area for semi dedicated company.
    If you do tanker with Prime you will see a lot of the northeast.
    I can't help you with company pay as I'm a IC.
    Good Luck.

    @Switcher , he went with Maverick Glass just a day or so ago ..... that's why he hasn't been back here. IDK what happened with Prime.

    Hello all. Nothing happened with Prime, and I still think they are probably a great company. I just decided that Maverick might be a better fit for me. I am almost finished with orientation and ready to start securement training here in North Little Rock. So far, I am impressed and I think it was the right decision.
