Message:: [QUOTE="Banker, post: 12347697, member: 93555"]I think several Carhaul companies were/are having issues. Some tried to grow with cheap freight and found out that experienced car haulers being paid a percentage of said cheap freight would not haul said cheap freight especially since there are plenty of other jobs paying in excesss of $100,000 that are easier than Carhaul. Fortunately those same carriers learned and when new contracts were bid elsewhere freight wasn’t bid cheap. To attract and retain experienced carhaulers they need to pay premium wages and the best way to do that is not with a race to bottom of the barrel rates.Regarding your pay, as long as you are happy I am happy but you asked the question so I will respond. None of the experienced carhaulers I speak with daily are making less than $100,000 with some in the $130,000 range but they are generally delivering 5+ loads a week home every other day or so. Most of the carhaulers I talk with are in their 40’s-60’s with 10-30 years of Carhauling experience. If your schedule and carrier is working for you then it may be better than more money elsewhere. I have been told that your carrier was a good place to work for most of those car haulers who I know that have worked there.[/QUOTE]
