Team Questions..

most bigger companies pay on exp. each driver get half miles the truck runs
(my pay is .40cpm if we run 6000miles i get payed for 3000 my wife with less exp. pay is .39cpm she get payed for 3000miles it dont matter who dose the driven )
if you dont have co drive most will pair you up (be careful) i would not do this my self (find your own co driver if you can)
but the biggest thing most people have trouble sleeping that good riding truck dont sleep good when its moving

for what its worth i dont understand why someone would run team if the money goes to two house holes you might make a LITTLE more but youll be gone all the time
hope this helps
good luck

 

Companies such as Land Span and DOT Lines are team oriented outfits. The key to making money as a team is turning high miles. This means 1000 miles per day (or more).

Compensation is normally a 50/50 split between the 2 drivers. In my case I earn 1/2 cpm more than my co-driver (my spouse). I have seniority and am considered the lead driver. We split .48 cpm but there are other companies that offer more.

If you look around there are a couple of companies that specialize in military, munitions, radioactive, and hazmat that will pay more per mile as well.
