For years we at Farm2Fleet have been asked to provide full dispatch for some drivers. Because of our model it made it hard for us to do it and do it well. But we saw a huge demand for O/Os that wanted to just run and not worry about find their next load. But the typical business model that paid drivers in the $1.40 range with fuel was not something we wanted to work with.
So we worked with a large carrier to be able to provide all the benefits of running for a large carrier but also get a strong percentage pay plan while being managed by one the leading small carriers in the industry.
80% of line-haul (with fuel a O/O should see over $1.60/mile on 2,700+ miles a week)
FSC on all miles
Expedite/Truckload hybrid (better paying freight and not having to sit waiting for that next expedite load)
Fuel discount - $.25-$.40/gal
24/7 dispatch
Free plates

If it just wasnt covenant i might b interested
Starboyjim Thanks this. -
A driver in my fleet that just wants to be dispatched and run is going to find it hard to make more money on any of the mileage programs that companies run.Leftlane101, Digit, Roknric and 1 other person Thank this. -
What "control" does Covenant have over the O/O or would we answer to F2F??
-
But we have been running trucks and have only had one contact direct to drivers. And that was a driver shutting down in ATL for no reason (they had hours to drive). Not at a TS but in a bad area.
Only exception would be when we have drivers on high value loads. Then security is running the show in terms of tracking and communications. Upside, it pays realllllllllly well. But no forced dispatch so if you don't like that then we won't dispatch it.positiveone, Starboyjim and losttrucker Thank this. -
Figures so satelite tracking and elogs mandatory with covenant my experience under covenant mgmt i use that term loosely is akin to a monkey humping a football
-
As far as EOBRs, it is the future. Fighting it is akin to a monkey .Leftlane101 Thanks this. -
