    Good Morning! I was wondering which states are you the busiest in and is it possible for company drivers to average $2000+ a week? Also, what type of hometime schedule do you offer?

    2000+ a week as a company driver is pretty much outside of the realm of possibility. They're hiring all over the country, so as long as your earning expectations are drastically reduced.

    I see you posted this in the Oilfield forum, so no clue there, really.
    However, Ohio is currently putting in the Rover Pipeline for the next few to 7 months.... you can google that. Hear it pays well, but a lot of the hauling is OS/OD and H/H. Requires experience, and moxie.
    Best wishes!

    You might wanna put where your located and your experience. @Luke628 hauls tankers in Texas in the oil fields. He's doing real good money wise. He might be able to give you some help.

    stay away from Bridger, they are recruiting drivers to drive for lease operators ..work is not steady, if the lease operator does not pay you bridger will do nothing to help you..the whole company is full of liars,,,

    $2K per week is not outside the realm of possibility in the Bakken. There are jobs where you can earn $25 per hour or more and work around 70 hours. 70 hours at $25 per hour is $2,125 (time and a half after 40 hours)

    problem is Bakken nd Texas oil fields is housing, some are now offering housing again, from Bunk houses to private rooms or living in trucks,, One thing about ND if you haul gravel you will be laid off in the winter and can go home collecting unemployment, I have met several drivers that have been doing this for several years,,,

    Crude has picked up in TX there are drivers making $1700 p/wk gross. And trainers that are making 2k p/wk. My buddy from the high school football team pulls it. But you can have that oil field work. I'd rather stay clean and away the middle of nowhere.
