Average Miles for Team Company Drivers at Prime

If that’s the average it’s poor .. 4000 is doable single but not in back to back weeks

 

I ran team for 3 years and he and I averaged around 5800 a week. And we were home 2 days a week, sometimes 3 if we chose to take it easy and take a 4500 mile week. We had weeks we ran 8200. Anything under 5000 for a team is pretty weak. There’s no reason a good team shouldn’t get 1300+ miles most days in the truck.

 

If it’s reefer though, you’ll almost certainly get less miles than running a van with the long wait times at produce sheds out west and the multi-stop picks. In the years I hauled reefer, most pickups were 1st come 1st serve, very few places had set appointments. Sometimes pickups were quick, sometimes 1 pick took a day. It’s a crapshoot.
