    Hi Guys,

    I know ice roaders are highest paid people in truck industry but if anyone knows how much is pay for regular CDLA A class drivers in Alaska who drive oil tankers for local oil companies there.

    thanks in advance

    Hello All

    Is there any online resource showing ice road trucker positions that haul for mining companies in Alaska. I found regular truckers jobs that are hauling for other businesses but mining is exceptional. So is there anything to look online or you must know someone who can refer you?

    If you want to know the real story on Alaska wages, look up truck outfits on yer handy dandy computer and call them. I suspect you'll be way more successful in yer search than listening to opinions on what the facts should be

    Are you talking about owner operators before expenses? Company drivers dont make close to that even on ice roads

    I researched in internet and many websites are claiming drivers make $120 000 or even more in 3 year period, but not those drivers who deliver for local businesses and communities. The ones who deliver for mining companies which operate plants in rural areas of Alaska. I don't really rely on figures that I find in internet any more. I have never found anything "average" to be close to the figure I am getting.

    120000 in a 3 year period is even double in the lower 48
