Now this is what I call a good rate!!
I took a load last week from Tucker Ga. to Canton Ga. paid the truck $400.00 for 47 miles. that's $ 8.50 a loaded mile, with the empty miles to get there to pick it up it came out to just over 4 bucks a mile for all miles. I could go for more loads like that!! At my pay rate of 25% that's a dollar a mile. heck that's even more than JB pays!

I had a load that was 147 miles. The load paid me about $1.27/mile - not bad for a company driver. Wish I could do 3 a day on that one.

That's still tying your truck up for most of the day. I've done a few short runs less than 100 miles but got $1,000. Maybe different in a van but a flabed your looking at the better part of the day from start to finish.

I pull a tank. took 1 hour to get to shipper, one hour to load , one hour to get to customer and 45 minutes to unload. total 3 hour and 45 minutes tied up. that's about 28 bucks an hour.... works for me.. by the way, its a company truck, not mine. |
