    Chaining up can still be a challenge. I chipped a nail.

    You'll make more money pulling reefers. It's ok, I did it for 18 years and liked it.

    DHL is dry van and in Carrolton, TX
    @southtruck posted this about DHL: It's about someone he knows that drives for DHL.
    "He has lots of experience and all endorsements/HAzMAt. He is delivering auto parts around Orlando/Ocala area and waiting for a local assignment to open up in Tampa. They are putting him up in a hotel and company car. New equipment. Sounds like he is going to hit six figures. YMMV"

    "A friend of mine just left my company for DHL doing local LTL. He loves it. Paychecks jumped 20-30%. They are on my list but I doubt they will give the hometime I want."

    My thought was didnt wanna have to keep track of and fight with a company for detention. Still on the fence about reefer and if anyone makes any decent money with it.

    I never had to fight for detention pay. The Elog shows exactly what time you arrived and exactly what time you departed.
    In the old days of paper logs, there were problems, but not today.

    With other companies they would say yeah sure give it to you and never do. Maybe Marten is different? Heard they are pretty straight up and dont play with your pay. Was just curious if I could deal with the long waits and variable sleep schedule. Marten does sound like a good deal.
