Flatbed Miles???

When I ran flatbed (for 8 years until last Sept) I usually ran around those numbers. Sometimes when I did longer runs out to TX, LA, or OK I would get higher, but I usually ran to the east coast with about 16-2300 miles a week. With the economy being slower and shippers and recievers cutting hours I would guess that you would be doing great to get that amount. In my opinion flatbed drivers need to be paid on percentage and not mileage just because of all the extra work and time involved.

 

runing 2200 to 2600 a week

 

2580 this week, I run between 2000 and 3000 miles a week.

 

Just short of 2800 for two weeks, then 2500 and 2300 for the next two. One was a 4 day week for the holiday and this last one I was just off the game all week. Regional WV, VA, OH mostly. Mountains slow me down I'm gonna try for 3k next week, had to sit for today to get my medical card renewed. I love having 4 dispatchers managing 2 trucks (lots of subcontracting going on but we get priority).
