Could be wrong but you may be doing a lot of fingerprinting with the Dollar General Account. Not sure about the the other accounts.

DG is hard work but you make good money doing it. all loads are multi stop (going to 3-4 stores) 100% driver (hand) unload, you get stop pay for each stop and unload pay. i've done them 3 stop run 235 miles took all 14hr's 10hr break and 3.5hr's back.

Well I drive team with my husband for USX and we're on the TJ Maxx-account. I've talked to several WM dedicated drivers and they told me they sit a lot. As far as I know WM is not driver unload. Home Depot used to be driver unload and they were doing pretty good as far as I heard, but one none of those accounts I have personal experience; sorry about that. You could call a recruiter and ask them about the details on those accounts I guess? BOL to you.
