    Nope, tankers.

    I'm just relaying what the man said. I didn't want to call him a liar, but numbers don't lie.

    I have finally been moving. I only worked 2 days the week before last, but worked everyday last week. Was off 3 days for the holiday, worked today, and tomorrow. Theyve been sending me out to quad cities to pull these permit overweight scrap loads.

    If you're looking to try something else, tankers are great and ISO work is a good start to get your feet wet. I made the switch and other then trying dumps, I love tanks.

    My company is still slow with drivers only work about 2-3 days a week. Lucky I am not a driver, just do safety work. How is everyone else doing?

    There can be. I'm not completely up to date on the current ISO rates, but try calling Altom or Heniff. Personally I'd stay away from Boasso or CBSL. Get some experience pulling ISO and then try and get on the domestic work, that's where the real money is.
     
    4noReason Thanks this.

    Let me clarify something. The key is to decide if you like it, if you do buy a pump & compressor. It'll make you more valuable. There's no money in just moving them. Anyone can do that, just look at xpo or Kiswani or the 5 other companies doing it.
