Schneider or Service Transport?

If your runs are shorter you'll make more on percentage because you can do more loads in a given time. If the loads are longer then mileage is better. I prefer percentage pay because as rates go up so does your pay. With mileage no matter the rate your still make the same.

 

schneider simply because there will be lots more women around at the terminals whether office gals or female drivers.

 

I've heard that women line the roads that lead to Schneider terminals, waving their handkerchiefs and holding out boxes of chocolate for drivers.

 

yeah that is exactly what i heard except they only wave at/flag down the drivers in the s trucks that do not have external visors on the truck,hopping on the running boards as the truck cruises by at their top speed of 60.THOSE gals are worth the stop.almost makes me desire to drive for schneider and pilot one of those visor-less 60 mph,elogged out trucks.

 

Congrats on your new career...first piece of advice,,those wages they advertise ? Just cut that in half for a more realistic wage,,never ever believe a recruiter. He is paid the minute you sign into Orientation. No one in operations has ever heard of him,,,lol good luck..anyone disagree jump in...
you have to pay your dues in this field...but I bet you can do it !!

 

i finished my training with snbc in september and have been on my own since then. this is my first trucking job and i love it here so far. only major complaint is the truck they gave me. a columbia that runs good mechanically but it was EXTREMELY dirty. whoever had this thing before me was a chain smoker and a complete slob and they made no attempt to clean it at all before assigning it to me. i was in houston last week and saw all the new guys get cascadias though, so maybe you will get lucky and won't have to deal with some of their older junk.
