    Nothing recent but in the older threads the solo drivers ran a lot of NE, and Buffalo. I know they run west coast but no idea if it’s still just teams going west

    I’d look into Magnum if I were going refer. They don’t go to Cali but they pay much better and they have lots of long loads, 1500 miles and such.

    Magnum offered me .48 cpm with my experience. With them, you better get hazmat in order to get more com. They would have bumped it to .50 com. Its apparently serious to get it. They'll pay for you to get hazmat
     
    RoadCall and D.Tibbitt Thank this.

    I’ve been at this for 27 yrs, I’ve had hazmat, tanker and triples since day one. I’m not going reefer, if I can help it

    I understand totally. Reefer is my trailer of choice. Mainly because of the night time work, and I sleep wonderfully when the reefer unit is running

    Yeah if I remember correctly, they pay you a higher CPM on all miles and I believe another .05 a mile when hauling hazmat. I don’t think they haul a lot of it though.

    They have a good thread with a bunch of friendly drivers, I’m sure one of them can tell you. Like I said, I’m shooting for dry van but I have my eyes on a couple of reefer outfits just in case. Never know!
     
    bryan21384 Thanks this.
