TMC

i just applied to them, they had some dedicated jobs available in my area. Online app it asks for education as well as military info.

 

Thanks for the info, TMC looks like a great company to work for. Nice equipment and professional drivers. I have my CDL and and am looking forward to getting back into the industry once I retire from the military. Will they hire retired military with some experience in trucking? I have driven flatbed for the AF for a few years.

 

You will have to have recent exp outside of the military. I was in the Marine corp and had my CDL but I still had to take a refresher course. I took troops to truckers out in 29 palms CA. Look into a course that the military offers

 

Thank you for your service gentlmen....

 

Oh no your not on here too old mcdaniels. Hows the road. Btw, they also have dedicated accounts in the northeast, two near nyc (which im on one of) one in mass and a couple others

 

What speed are their trucks maxed at?

 

Trucks set at 62.

 

I am thinking about going with tmc i have a few questions that maybe some of the tmc drivers could answer i would sure appreciate it.
do they have pike passes for toll can you idle while your on your ten hours off or do they have apu's on the trucks i heard they want no idle time what so ever is that true?
do you often unload and dead head back? do they pay if you are dead?

 

if you go with mileage at tmc do they get you good mileage or is it better to go with percentage

 

They have ipass, which works also on ezpass and i zoom, if its cold, idle to stay warm, theyre not gonna make you freeze, but idling also kills your mileage. Dedicated accounts deadhead a bit more, line haul they try and find loads close to where u unload. If you go mileage you get payed for all empty miles, percentage you get 20cpm if your bounce is over 150 miles. When i was on line haul i went %, being in the northeast loads pay a bit better there.
