Friday or Saturday start. Slip seat 2-3 times a week. Takes about a year to a year and a half to get on a program. Lots of Chicago. Overall a very good job though. You can make good $$ here.

 

I'll jump in and say it's really where the ROC needs you. I'm out of Iowa and have hit Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota, North Dakota, Indiana and Ohio. Many have gotten father out than that.

 

And just a friendly heads up, I don't know about other DC's, but in Menomonie we aren't registered for 80,000 lbs in some states. Say I go to southern Illinois and they want me to pick up a heavy backhaul in KY. Can't do it. Only registered for 65,000 in KY. Some guys have found this out the hard way.

 

185 drivers and around 130 tractors. Not sure on the tractor count.

 

Depends on how hard you want to work. I made around 90k my first year. Took my time until I learned the system and had an efficient routine down. Don't get to wrapped up in the money when you start. It will come. The important thing is to work safely and do the job right.
