Company driver pay

You got me curious.
I'm company driver 21 days out and average 5 plus days home a month. I'd say I am an average miles driver for my company.

Average weekly take home for this year is 775.00 per week.

Our companies profit sharing increases that by a minimum of $25 per week each year

We are due for a company wide raise and I am due for a merit based raised which will easily raise take home pay $50 more a week.

I live in one of those high tax states that seizes $25 plus of my income weekly.

So for me I could easily increase my take home to $900 plus by staying out just a day longer a month and moving to a low tax state.

 

Depends on what gross is based on. 40 hour work week or 70 hour
I’m sure anyone can make $80k if they work 70 hours a week

 

Several states have no personal income state taxes and also good weather year round.
Nevada, where I moved to, has no personal state income taxes or food taxes.
I've also lived in Tennessee and Florida where there's no personal state income taxes.

 

News flash, there are a boatload of drivers out there working 70+/week not even coming close to sniffing 80k .

 

I'd be jumping for joy if I only paid $25/week in state tax. I pay double that, and I'm not even in a communist state .

 

You can do much better in trucking, plus have a full benefits package and work W-2 vs 1099.

 

As an LTL P&D driver at top scale (a little over $29/hr) a 40hr week is a little under $1200 and base for the year would be a little over $61000. I usually get 5-6 hours overtime a week which gets me to about $1400/week gross and around $72k a year. Some guys at our place are working as much as 10-15 hours overtime a week

 

This my 2.5 year into driving. Hope this helps

 

I like that break-down, its that an app you are using?
