Questions about the Marcellus Shale water haulers?

Water in PA is a joke.
Sand haulers average $2400 per week in PA.
check out Barnhart transportation, Roy Struble trucking, or Lansberry Trucking

 

Why not include RAM, D&I, RSA etc..???? and Barnhart and Struble are not
working much in the PA,WV,OH area....at least I dont see them..as far as Lansberry I see them alot..haven't heard anything bad about them

 

Never heard of them. I just mentioned the best paid guys I work with.
I'm up in the north east corner.

 

i run for RAM/Modern

 

Where are they based out of? How is the money?

 

Based outta Saxonburg.PA..bout 20 north east of Pittsburgh...so far I'm at 80K for
the year with Dec to go ...I expect to be at 85K-86K for the year total

 

People will be people and have their good and the bad they want to cry about no matter the company....Just gotta go with ur guts...I've been with them for 18 months and have no complaints

 

I get paid a percentage per BBL hauled and sometimes I get really hosed when the frac is down. I hear about everyone else getting paid hourly. Is it even legal to only be getting paid percentage and not hourly? Some say yes and some say no. But I can't find anything that actually says how we are suppose to be paid.

 

It is legal. Even profitable in ND.
Not worth it in the Marcellus.

 

The only thing that companies have to do is pay you minimum wage for all hours work. If they are an Interstate Transportation Company, they are also exempt from paying overtime.
