2wks on/2 wks off

Not sure on this but I know many Ryder locations offer part time working 3 days a week shuffling trucks where I'm from, something to look into for retirement

 

Schneider offers a long list of driver plans that would meet your needs.

Listed in number of days unless otherwise indicated, no particular order.

6 on 3 off (full time)

7 on 7 off (part time)

14 on 7 off (full time)

4 on 4 off

Name your own schedule....18 day per month minimum.

 

I think Roehl does it too.

The only bad part is you share a truck. You hope you get someone clean.

 

I now consider myself as "semi-retired". And enjoy every minute of it, most of it harassing folks here LMAO.

I work the 14/7. And I'm looking forward to the 7/7 part in a few more years.

If you're wondering about pay. I average about $1500+ bring home for my 14 days. Not great...but acceptable.

 

You and another "share a truck" and its exactly what it says 2 on and 2 off,Recruiting is aimimg this at persons near retirement age that can only work a limited schedule(as in how much $ they can make)

 

Most companies are developing schedules like these mostly because 1) they're having difficulty finding fully qualified drivers to sit in their seats (CSA 2010 really tightened up the medical requirements) and, 2) those new drivers who do end up sitting there want to get home more than once every 4-8 weeks or they'll quit, returning the company's problem to #1 above. One company, Swift, calls it the "Family Plan," where you and another driver slipseat a tractor. This give more hometime and a more predictable drive schedule to each driver and gives the company some stability with their new drivers while they figure out if trucking is for them; most of us don't know what OTR really means to family until we've done it a while.
