    .54cpm, they pay that loaded and empty though which is good. Not some ridiculous empty cpm like .37. Also HT pays $22 an hour for loading/unloading as soon as you arrive as long as you are on time for your appt. which should not be a problem. So if you are there 2 hours you get $44. Some companies only give $18-20 for the first 2 hours. Transport Service (a KAG company) doesn't pay the driver anything for the first two hours. That is bs right there.

    Yes. They have an account with Ecolab in Garland. Or you could run the system.

    To many drivers and not a lot of work of late. I am with Superior in High Point NC. A few of us been talking about looking for new company. Was great but last few months been slow and getting over ridiculous with rule changes. I prefer to work for weeks at time. I hate dedicated runs cause get back home. I need to work not sit at home.

    Are the highway transport drivers in Laporte tx affected by the lockout at the Dow facility in deer park tx? Heard that Dow has locked out operators during negotiations
