Anyone have Regional Dry Bulk Experience?

I ran regional dry bulk for Walpole inc.Its not a bad gig lots of standing in the rain cold and hot to watch pressure gauges.Depending on the load you can plug up a silo and blow off line if you pump it off with to much pressure.Its a pain to unplug .I hauled lime it sucked.

 

I worked mon-Friday home from nite.Pros good pay cons always dirty and very loud

 

I switched to hopper bottoms way more money.A lot less b.s. to deal with.

 

I got paid 23%of load.I would want to be paid by the load and not the mile.Driving is the easy part.It may take you up to three plus hours to blow off a load.I get paid depending on the plant 15.00 a hour wait time after first hour.

 

Dry bulk my biggest paying load was 50.00 and withe hopper I take a load that's 38 miles and get paid 65.00 most loads range from 75 to 110 a load on hopper I do three loads a day

 

With the tank running the same amount of loads my check was 850-950 with the hopper my check averages about 1300

 

i pull dry bulk., I prefer it to refer or dry van. Unloading time varies between 30 minutes to an hour. loading time about 6 minutes.
Home time can vary from weekly to every night. ff on the weekends. I make 28 percent, averages about 250.00 pe day. If you have more questions message me
