Finally Got A Raise

Not sure what the rest of you are making but April 1, 2023 will be 7 years since I signed on with Moore Transport. We finally got a new pay raise starting sometime in February. I'm currently at a 15 cent per mi raise for driver 3 -6 yrs. April 1, I will be at 20 cent raise.

Trips over 330 mi = $1.21 per mi
330 or less= $1.55 per mi.
Lordstown OH = $1.70 per mi.

Moore Transport has had to work out some issues but I think we are pointed in the right direction now. I was here for 6 months and was given a new truck. I still have that same truck. That was 6 and a 1/2 years ago. We were supposed to be getting some new trucks about a year ago but that got put on hold. I've heard we're not getting any new trucks until 2024.
Not sure.

I made $78, 000 in reported income last year. With 15 cent raise it would have been $86,000.
Not sure with a 20 cent raise. New driver up to 3 yrs make what I make minus the 20 cent raise.

Could I make more? Absolutely. I leave out Sun Morning returning Thursday afternoon and stay in paid hotels when out. I pretty much do the same runs every week.
Toledo to Baltimore
Baltimore to Louisville or Evansville and/or Paducah, KY
Final Spring Hill to N Ohio

How are the rest of you making out?

 

Acadia, XT-5, XT-6.

 

Company Drivers

 

Absolutely. Some guys squeeze in an extra run every week and make a killing. I used to leave out on Sunday mornings and get back late Friday afternoon and I made a lot more than I make now. But I also have something outside of the cab of my truck called "a life."
