Got ahold of them. They offer OTR, regional, and dedicated local.
Regional is working for Kehe foods out of Romeoville - delivering food products with a vary days and times including weekend work.

Local was the new Walmart distribution in Elwood. All drop and hook to Wally and Sam's stores strictly in the Chicagoland area. They told me that that account was paying about $1000 a week for 50 to 55 hrs. M-F When I asked how it was paid, the said at .37 a mile.

$1000 a week ? at . 37 Lets do the math-------

$1000 divided by .37 is 2702 miles per week

2702 divided by 5 days is 540 miles a day.

Now this is where I might need a little help because I just can't seem to figure this out.

How do you do Drop and hooks at walmart and sam's stores all over the chicagoland area and manage to log 540 miles a day ?

If you were to drive for 11 hours a day, You would have to avg. 49 miles each hour. that includes to drop and hook and waiting to get into a door and all those redlights and traffic that you have to deal.

can someone tell me how this can be done ?
