TMC hometime

It depends on how early you unload Friday morning to be set up to get an early as possible reload going home...and of course how much clock you got to do it. That's why parking up at receivers and shippers is important, so you can start your 14hr right when u leave the particular customer and not have ur time consumed waiting, even tho u will wait, naw mean? This is a weekend home time destroyer and it happens by parking for the night away from ur destination, and as soon as u go on duty your time starts, when it can be saved. Instead of wasting two hours driving to the customer and then eating two more hours unloading/loading u can save those 4+ valuable hours for getting to the next phase of the week by going on duty as the last pallet comes off ur trailer or or on (as soon as u drive a mile u go on duty and the 14 hour counts down). Salvation only happens when u sleep at the particular customer ( your in sleeper birth off duty but working ). Trucking with e-logs is a game of ridiculous time management. They do route you home, this is true

 

Don't for get McElroy Truck Lines.They pay $500 a week training.Get you home every week end.Start you off at .45 a mile.Then 65% of their loads are preloaded and pre tarped (That is BIG)They are a Lowes preferred carrier.That means you can park on their property without having to worry about being towed off and their a Christian company.The drivers I have ran into are happy

 

I have to agree strongly with Karl Marx he is spot on. However you as a driver can do everything right for good time management and then have your fm or "planner" send it all down the toilet just like that.
