    Got a quick question concerning pay. Swift has different pay scales for both Eastern & Western divisions.
    Does anyone know the dividing line (east vs west)?
    Is you pay figured on where you run or where you're based?

    Thanks in advance,

    I believe the Mississippi River is the line used for east west. Paid by where you are running.

    Thanks for that information.
    What about a load that starts out in one division and end in the other?

    When I was doing those it seemed like it depended where the final was. The final determined the scale.

    You are correct sir!
    In order to get east pay, the load has to be picked up and delivered east of the miss. river.
