Day In The Life Of A Rookie Truck Driver - 6 Months In 

I was in your spot for a year. I left, and I’m running food grade tanker. I laugh anytime I see a flatbed truck. You should call your dm if you’re going to drop early. Most places require an appointment. Get yourself an orange load bar. It’ll make your life easier. Especially if you run the step deck trailer. You can use the edge protection pole to push up on the tarps. I did replace the pole with a sturdier one from Walmart. You can also roll up the tarps without folding it a third of the way. I found that I could roll them up tighter, and put more crap in the tarp boxes. To the point you could point them up like eye to the sky coils. Good luck!

this video was dope asf im thinking of joining melton as well thank you

Amazingly hard work!!! 💪🥴🥰 Congrats!!!💙

As a flatbed worker we deserve more pay. The lumber tarp can make or break your driving

Good quality work 👌

Loves and Pilot. Usually have some clean showers. If all else fails, I go to Planet Fitness or 24hr fitness. To take a shower.

Not if you know from the month is sep-January of next year your most likely going to sit for more than 3-5 days due to freight in cold weather

What camera and mics do you use. Also how many cameras do you even have.

Awesome video Mike! 🔥

Quick question bro, I’m from Cali as well. I know Melton has no terminals here, so do you just drive the truck straight home during home time?

Hello, just wondering how long it took from applying to flying out to orientation?

Hey brother, good job with that strap and tarp. What was that total time did it take to strap and tarp? When you get tired of the low miles with the low pay plus the high stress and manual labor. Hit me up and get paid to drive (2,500-4,000 miles) with no touch freight! But only if you like to run and make money. I too worked at melton in 2023. I already know your troubles and what’s to come.

Do you get enough time to eat and have healthy options ?

I work at Burger King should I get my CDL

Why not a fridge driver Salary of régional driver per week-end
