I go by Jevic's terminal all the time, they have a billboard out front that says they are hiring new drivers, starting salary $53,000 to $80,000.

All those truckload dry freight companies claim to pay big numbers to start. All BS. What they forget to tell you is it is 70 hours a week and if you are lucky and get good runs you might make $53,000. That works out to about $14 an hour straight with no overtime. I would say with any company who pays by the mile or by the load, whatever they claim your yearly income is going to be, cut it in half And you are still going to end up working 70 hours

[quote="Molson"]I live in NJ and want to do OTR Dry Van I think.
You need to to make up your mind. OTR or run local. I'm running Vineland NJ to Bethany CT and home every night and Gross for 5 days $850, 6 days $1,050. $.40 cpm and hourly pay (wait time)It's alot of hours. But it works for me. Then you look at companys you want the ones that pay PC miles. Where in NJ are you? and how long have you had your CDL ?
