Glad I'm with a private carrier....45 cpm and 35 bucks a day food money...Company paid Blue Cross.
All out and back loads..Paid the same empty, deadhead back every trip.
The only waiting I do is the hour it takes to pump the load off.....If for some reason I do get delayed I get hourly pay.
Heck,They paid me hourly for sitting in a backup one day for several hours...Straight up place to work!
If you can find a small outfit with good equipment,W-2 pay and dedicated customers it will be the best tanker gig.....I know they are rare to find.
Good luck!
What kind of tanker work is best?

Well, I decided to go with Foodliner out of Blair, Nebraska. I have read good and bad about them here, but that's par for the course. They have a good compensation package and I liked the terminal manager when I met him.
I also like the region I'll run in and I think I'll like the work, though that's not certain since I've only pulled flatbed before this. I know I won't miss tarping.
Maybe I'll start a new Foodliner thread once I get going there, we'll see. I appreciate everyone's input. -

This is the actually the perfect time of year to start tanking. You'll get plenty of experience in before seeing Mother Nature's White Dessert Topping again. Good luck. -

Seriously; I think you'll be really happy with tanking. The surge is only as difficult or "intimidating" as you make it; kinda like tarping and chaining. Bring your A-game, like you always have, and like others have said; you're starting at the BEST time of year. Stay blessed; keep us posted~!Bud A. Thanks this. -
