That’s the way trucking companies are with newbies go out and train and train bust your ass. You make the money all sudden you get your own your out your own and load paid lower and lower miles once in a while you have a good dispatcher he’ll throw your bone and give you long haul.
I run 2100 miles a week local im paid hourly and never bring home less than $1400 gross comes out to about $1100-$1300 bring home each week never less never really more
you gotta grind it out for at least 6 months. Something switches even with swift.. if youve been safe and not miss a dispatch right around 6 months they start giving you better loads. You get nire miles and a bump in pay. Your checks start averaging 1300 ish. then at 1 year you go work for another company .. dont job hop.. you limit what you are able to find because most carriers hate hiring a job hopper
Just finished orientation at the Jurupa Valley terminal on Friday. Taking my test Monday and then I'll be otr with a mentor! Crazy how your videos were in my recommended but you gained a fan bro 👌🏾
So I’ve been trucking 15years flatbed/van.. I’m about to give swift flatbed division a try due to the benefits they offer and the stability and growth of the company itself is impressive. Despite how bad ppl talk about swift I met some drivers who love it there. I’ve learned all companies pay is about the same. I made the same money at 50/mile that I did at 75cpm. Now I’m focused on who has the best benefits and stability. I would advise this young man if he’s surviving well enough with swift, STAY until u het that two years under your belt and go with a top tier company with LOW turnover rate. Ups,FedEx, RL, and such.. DONT CHASE THAT HIGH CPM BS other companies offer ..use this time to gain experience dont job hop, be patient . I know this a long post but I ain’t got sht to do right now😂
