Dedicated Accounts

We run out of a Costco in VA Im pretty sure but can not remember where it was.I del a otr ld there and we had a swift office and lots of swift trucks there.

Almost positive it was in VA if not somewhere in the SE area

 

I know that Swift pulls for Ashley Furniture in NC. Is that dedicated, or do OTR drivers get those from time to time? My best friend's husband works there, and I would love to get the occasional 34 down there.

 

Maryland ... off the 70

 

I have been running Surge for Walmart DC in Harrisonville since the start of May, I am working about 6-8 hours a day and making alot more then I was OTR, from $700 gross to $1000+ gross, I have only been with swift since Feb so it can happen before 6 months, I just got a message today saying the Walmart DC in OK needs help so try calling your DL.

 

My DL wont even talk to me about dedicated, just keeps telling me to wait until I get my permanent DM bla bla bla
I did however get him to request for me to be western regional, to me thats one step closer to getting local or dedicated closer to home. At least I wont be in New york trying to get home to California, instead I might be in Colorado trying to get home which is easier.

 

It was also limit your paycheck I talked to a driver doing the Great Lakes Reagonal and he was happy making ; 600 a wk I make way more than that a wk even over the road averaged $900 a wk but that may be ok for u not me

Wanna do dedicated go otr and find a place I just called mine DC and said u need dri rrs I was bobtailed in been here 11months now and im not even on fleet just a surge driver and make $1000 to $1500 a wk and average $1000 to $1200 a wk

 

That is a good point, I will add, not sure how true it is but DL do make money off how many miles you run and with alot of the dedicated the miles are less but made up by stop pay. So if you are running decent miles they could be less then helpful getting you more money with less miles.

 

I will keep persistent, maybe I can find a DM who needs some surge drivers, I just need to network and find out who does what and where.

 

It a I run 2400 to 3300 a wk average is 2600 but ya the stop pay makes up for it usualy do 1 to 7 stops a load and average 3 stops a day usaully 20 a wk at $15 a stop backhual or dbl up loads is where I make the real money $260 days
I just did a load over 2 days 1150miles with 6 stops

Ya I suggest look around and see what u come acrossed hell we have guys here as surge drivers and they luve 2 days away
