    I should get home sometime tomorrow afternoon. They are sending me right back out Sunday with a N Chicago dry bulk out and back. It doesn’t load until noon Monday but I will head out early Sunday so I can get parked in time to watch the Panther Saints game.

    So I can see there is a block on TO that says miles in it. These are miles from shipper to cosignee I’m figuring as they seemed right for that. But what about miles from terminal to shipper or miles from cosignee to tank wash, is there no way to see them?

    I’m wondering if they pay miles to shipper and tank wash, how many is what I’m wondering vs how many I actually drive, but it’s no way to see miles they gonna pay

    Only time I ever tried to go into there I got pulled to do a pump load. The guy who went in instead was there 10 hours to drop a load. They wouldn't let him drop till the lab cleared it. So they paid 8 hours dmrg to do a lab.

    You get paid fairly close to hub, usually within 3-5%. Sometimes you might get a haz mat load that is rated for a restricted road, or you have to detour because of weather/construction/accidents. If you do that, just note it and send it in with your sleeper birth/demurge at the end of the week. This also applies to going oor for hoses or whatever. So if you pick up a trailer in Columbus but need hoses that aren't there and you have to drive all the way down to cincy, you'll get paid for those extra miles.
