WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON THIS???

What you should do drivers need to be ready and available for all loads and be on time for salary pay.If they dont follow your rules for that week then pay mileage pay.

 

Medical benefits? If I wasnt happy where I was and want to get back on the road, id drive for you.

 

I would wait till after ELD kicks in before I spend a
Dime on anything.
Call me crazy but this whole ELD thing comes from
Outlaw reefer companies.

We all ran 2 log books. Outlaw reefer companies
Pulling produce from the west coast back east were
Running 3 log books. I know,I done it for 5 years.

All your numbers look great but you left out the
Most important thing.
Where are you getting your freight from:
Who's finding the loads:
Are you using load boards:
Who's the dispatcher:

How can you guarantee that big weekly pay:
Do you have a contract:
What's the plan if you can't meet the payroll and
Some driver is pissed off a 1000 miles away with
Your truck.

Nowhere near enough information here.
I wouldn't touch this.
Be prepared to answer all these questions and
More from a expierenced driver if that's what
Your looking for.

 

I drove for a company that paid salary.I got paid by the round but otr drivers and locals got paid salary.

 

I run regionally for a company out of Colorado and we are on a weekly salary. Never changes. Some weeks I run 900 miles some weeks 3200 miles. I love it. No stress on me. It's all on the boss. I do get a few pennies per mile on top of the salary which is nice, and it keeps the motivation high.
