what is the most you have seen most money for mile 35 or 41 cpm or what?

Depends on one's experience level, type of freight, running lane, etc. I've seen .25/mi all the way up to .50/mi.

UPS feeder drivers on mileage make .69 a mile.

As a company driver.....$27.90 and hour straight time, $97.65 at triple time and a half.

As an O/O....$389 for a load that moved 3/4 mile and took 2 hours to get done. Twice....on the same day.

And they let you put golden flames on yer hood??

I have seen some drivers who have made over $1/mile on percentage, but that wasn't the norm. That was for a 1,200 mile OD load.

I wish. Not sure where that truck came from. Just found the picture online.

heartland pays 50 cents..i just saw it ona trailer the other day. that wasn't a lie was it??

I'm flatbedding at 44cpm empty or loaded.. But it took 4 yrs to get there from 38cpm starting. :thumbsup:

$1600.00 in 12 hours. 340 loaded miles.

Dosn't Heartland advertise 54/mile for the "green zone"?. For big carriers I think most max around .42 - .43.
When I was looking around earlier this year one company offered me .31 to start. This with almost 18yrs in the seat.

you got me beat, the best paying load we have goes 6 miles round trip and pays $240.00, takes about 4 hours and is a total pain in the ass to get in to where they load it

Are you talking about recent numbers?

if your talking about recent numbers, then I have to revise. recently I paid a shipper to haul their freight.

lmao.. not really but I have had offers of such.

im thinkin the same thing not 2006 numbers!

$ 3.00 a mile 08/06/09 the only problem was, it was only 80 miles. but not bad.

I heard that a new graduate can make $90,000 in the first year, and I know it's true because he said it in an e-mail

lol



hahah

:thumbsup:

Take for example my former employer, Superior Carriers, or any other good chemical tanker outfit that pays their drivers for about everything they do work related. At Superior the standard mileage rate is .415 Loaded/.34 Empty. Doesn't sound that great does it? When you consider that after being with them for 3 years of employment, my c.p.m. rate worked out to an average of around .52+/mile off of the hub, and roughly about .57/mile from just the paid mileages!!!

:clap:

cyanide..u are no longer with superior??

He stated in another thread that he quit and went to another company, won't say which one yet. Superior along with a lot of other companies are having rough times right now and taking it out on the driver it seems. I bet he went to another tanker company though.

The thing with alot of these carriers that advertise .50 CPM or close to it, is that you're not running the miles.
and usually the bennies suck terribly.

Talked to a JB driver and he stated that with 4 years experience, he started at .34 a mile. Then he followed that up with "but I sit alot waiting for loads":moon:

kind of like the restaurant the other day that had 16 ounce ribeye special for $8.99 but they were out of them

I know it's true too, cause I heard the same thing on the c.b radio.

a guy told me he has been driving for 10 years and said he was with his 12th company (5th in the past two years) and was earning 29 cents a mile while driving for a company called Circle City Transport out of Alabama.. Poor Guy!!

Anyone who has that many jobs in such a short time has some issues.
