The miles/load varies - so does the time they give you to deliver. As for the pay - they have it listed on their website. We have had load from 400 miles to 3000 miles. Sometimes they load back to back and we are really pushing it to make things on time, and other times there is a day in between loads so we take advantage of those and do our showers and laundry. I know this really isn't too much help, but figure Central runs about par to the other starter companies - and you get out of it what you put into it
