What the average dump truck driver makes here.
And you know exactly what time your going to
Work everyday.
Slim chance you get that dumping.SHOJim Thanks this. -
Depends on what your hauling or what contracts the company has. I haul ash from trash burn plants. Garranteed year round work.
SHOJim Thanks this. -
If your running in an area that doesn't see much of a winter or rain... Yes you can make good money. You'll make the most if your hauling the product from the quarry that has the same name on the door.

Well I went and took a road test today. I Have never driven a dump truck in my life. I did quite well ( well enough to pass anyway lol). Went out on state routes and some back roads.
Went back and talked to hiring guy. Said he would run my mvr ( no worries there) and be in touch. I took my road test in a Kenworth T880. Pretty smooth truck. All went well. I am a pretty happy camper -
I am one step closer. I am going for an interview this week!
G13Tomcat Thanks this. -
