    over-sized office trailers "out here" where i live are not a specialty haul. the pay here is about $20 per hour, and on days there are no trailers to haul, one either goes home or works the yard. be lucky you have a job.

    now, if you were to be hauling REAL OVER-SIZED loads....then i'd say the money should be WAY BETTER..

    otherwise, what you are hauling amounts to no more than an "over-sized" porta-potty....(with out the potty)

    What size are they? Do you winch them on or are they on wheels and you simply tow them??

    If he is paid by the hour, and wants more for hauling big stuff, will he take a HUGE cut in pay for bob tailing and deadhead? I'm guessing not.

    West Virginia is a poverty stricken state. He should feel lucky he's making what he's making.

    I saw an ad on Craigslist, a guy w/ a CDL A, w/ many years experience, offering to drive anything for $10/hr.

    I guessed, at the time, that he must have had some DUI's or something, but, maybe it's not worth that much when not hauling 53' x 13.5' vans, & flatbeds.
