The List Of Best Paying Companies For New Drivers

Thanks for the list! I just applied for May Trucking and Knight Transportation. But I'll be sure to apply for all these companies, with possible exceptions. Another big concern is training. May offers 2-4 weeks of training. Knight is 3.5-4 weeks with a trainer.

What are the training lengths on these companies? Over 1 month of spending 24/7 with another guy is out of the question for me. That's why I had to decline trans system (TWT reefrigeration .40CPM after 3 months?) They require roughly 2 months with a trainer.

Knight is .37 CPM not .36, after 3 month probation is over.

 

Where did you get .35 celadon and .36 millis? I'm seeing .33 celadon and .30 millis, on there website.

With that said, I'm calling magnum, melton, crete, and possibly prime. Thanks.

 

Training at Superior for an entry level driver is a minimum of 30 days. Realistically though, 6 weeks is about the least amount of time before anyone is comfortable throwing an entry level driver to the wolves. When you go otr while training you will stay in a hotel every night, so you aren't cooped up with someone 24/7.

 

Millis is 36cpm starting out for drivers who choose not to take the per deim.

and they have mileage bonuses 3cpm extra for 2000 mi. 4cpm 2500 mi. 5cpm for 3000 mi.

 

That was the first company I contacted weeks ago. They haven't called me back. They were going to check my school to make sure they meet the standards. May Trucking is 2-6 weeks. I feel confident enough it would be 2-3 for me. I may just end up going with them and take a pay cut and go with them.

 

I couldn't remember when I filled the app for Superior, it was awhile
ago Reefer, then out of the blue received a text wondering if I was
still interested. Might want to give them a call back before you move on.
Just my 2¢, might not have to take a paycut.

 

Had the same thing with QC got a call 5-6 months after I filled out the app.
