Companies that pay percentage
Are there any companies hiring newbies that pay a percentage instead of paying by the mile?

Most carriers are going to require at least 6 months to 2 years experience regardless of how they compensate drivers.

Companies Paying Percentage

Sounds like it can be to the drivers advantage. You just need to do your research. But, what kind of percentage do the companies generally pay?
|
TMC pays on a performance based scale. There are many factors that give you points, mostly fuel economy and out of route miles. The points that you earn one month determine your pay percentage for the next month. You only earn a percentage of the load rate after the fuel surcharge and any other fees are removed from the total sum that TMC gets paid for the load. You can earn as low as 23% or as high as 32% with most drivers earning 28% to 29%. To earn lower than 28% is almost impossible unless you are really careless.

I have always made more money on percentage. That is the way I pay my own drivers. I pay 25%. Most will pay somewhere between 22-30%. Whether you will do better depends on the rates for which you are hauling.

It isn't the percentage as much as the rate. If you haul a lot of over-sized loads you should still be doing pretty well. There are a lot of costs involved in doing over-sized loads. The most important thing is whether you are making the money you want.
