14/7 hometime plus

I'm averaging between 2800-3200 a week. The key is to hold off some of the pay until your off week. Of course, it helps that I have other income as well. But you should be able to make decent money on the 14/7. I'm finding they have a tendency to really run us hard during that 14 days. I rarely sit for long and most days are around 10 hrs.

 

Lots depends on your domicile access to the "freight lanes" that Roehl has. For those in the TX area, a 21/4 schedule seems to work the best. With your location, the biggest thing would be getting you out of MI when you're ready to roll.
Also, it's a matter of timing to maximize the scanned miles vs dispatched miles as that affects your weekly income.
Good luck to you...

 

I'm out of Gary, IN terminal and there always seems to be plenty of miles. Works really great for me because I only live 55 minutes from the terminal.

 

If I do the 14/7, do you know where in GA I will exchange trucks, Ellenwood, or Carnesville, or somewhere else?

 

Ellenwood will most likely be your home terminal.

 

Thanks, that would be a long drive for me.

 

I think you have to live within a certain distance from the terminal to be able to be on the hometime fleets. I would not want to have to drive several hours to get to the truck, and then have to get in and drive another 9 to 11 hours, and then the same thing when returning home, after a long day in the truck, it would be unsafe to then have to drive several more hours home. Good luck with your job search...
