Can confirm. I'm running a local gig in a 26' flatbed, GVW of 26,000. No drug test and only need to run logs on runs over 100/150 miles.
I think you're wanting air miles for local runs. So, The formula is one air mile equals approximately 1.15 land miles. So your 100 mile radius...
Here ya go.
I envy you! LOL How many times I have wanted to do the same thing on some loads... Receiver: "Oh, I don't know how we are going to get that off...
I think you hit it on the head. At least that's what they got me for, possession of alcohol.
As many others I too like to have a beer or two on my break or on my resets. Technically as a driver, you are NOT supposed to have alcohol in your...
I worked for Melton about 3 years ago now and left because of my own stupidity (long story), but in my year and a half with them they kept me...
"But Mr. Officer, my computer thingy told me I had to take a break, so I did." I think he's good to go. :tongue1:
1. Your 30 min break has to include reframing from any kind of driving a tractor trailor, correct? So u can't spend 10 minutes at Pilot, then...
Now that's funny, that is exactly what I did as well. Doing mostly local runs and maybe 30% tarp, but no 13' tall loads, no beds full of lumber of...
Yup, happens all the time. Just remember to pay it back down the road when you can. BTW, US Army = Thanks for your service!
One thing that really amazed me about flatbedding is the comradery that you will find. I remember my third or so load I was having some trouble...
Small fellow and good shape here as well and it took a few loads to get it right. First load I had a cape flapping in the wind once I hit the...
Oh I've seen some of those loads and puzzle is correct! I give tons of credit for those that pack some of the vans up. I did HHG years ago (not...
I started pulling boxes and bumping docks for a year and then went to flatbed and will never go back. For me, the monotony of doing the same "drop...
I give you credit OP for lasting a year with your co-driver, I only made it 2 weeks with mine. I agree with the others here. Finding a local job...
My first year driving I got dispatched to pick up a load in Chicago, IL at a steel company. Dispatch gave me directions and I followed them to a...
Back at ya and to everyone else too.
Oddly as I read this for the 4th time, all I could think of was this: C M ducks? M R ducks? M R not O S M R. C M ED BD wings O S. I C. M R ducks....
Amen to that, but isn't that the way it usually works. Don't know the rules but enforce them... Gotta love it! *Sigh* Yes you still need your 30...
