So my job hunt continues as the wages and the work continue on the downslope here on the milk hauling side of things. OTR/regional guys getting maybe three loads a week, us local loaders and shuttler's only getting about 2-3 loads a night if we're lucky. Right now, I'm deciding upon working six nights a week just to keep my bills paid and shore up the reserves. I could possibly go regional with where I'm at right now, but also run the risk of getting tapped for some noob-level, 48-state baloney.
Anyways, I put in an inquiry app with this company after someone forwarded me an add on FB. Crude and water hauling positions available in Grand Junction CO and in my current state down in Loving NM. On-site housing(trailers) are said to be available and a 5on/1off work-week with a whole week off every month.
As far as the pay goes, the recruiter said it was "30-34% of the load".
I've been hauling milk tankers for the past, five years, so the tanker aspect isn't all that new to me. But, I've never hauled oil, let alone much HAZMAT, despite having had my HAZMAT since getting my CDL.
Any current or past driver's for this outfit to offer their two cents as far as pay and work conditions go?
Not really finding many reviews on any of the other Google'd sites.
