In the 70s I had a dump truck I got paid by weight with a minimum and anything over 3 miles I got paid by the mile on top of the weight,I averaged over 500 dollars a day in the 70s my expenses were roughly 60 dollars a day including fuel that was .36 cents a gallon back then I know guys today that don't make that and my truck insurance back then was 500 dollars a year. Trucking is sure Fd up today thank you government deregulation .you could FUp anything you touch

Yep.. in 88, it was 50c a gallon, today almost 5,00 and they still paying almost the same today, as it was in 88. It's no fairness in trucking, no matter if is a class 6, 7, or 8.. we all get financially troubled because of the greedy of brokers, quarries and freight companies... still a good business, but the companies. Brokers and load board, they do steal from OOs.

Most the time companies that pay the workers or employee by the hour they dont want anybody to know how much that truck is making from the customer. It is none of their business. They don't necessarily want anybody above them or below them in the food chain to know or calculate what their end of the deal is, as in OTR longhaul drivers getting cpm/ not percentage of the load to work.

One way is get paid is to make sure tickets are correct, and invoicing done asap
Moving away from paper tickets, and manual dispatching, you can do pretty cool and efficient stuff. Of course, we have seen the challenge of changing people's mind about the traditional paper ticket @@ksw501

Starting out how much should I purchase a truck for ?
@russellhix6802 Жыл бұрын
There should be an industry standard that goes to the ruck owner regardless if dump truck or semi. National fuel price avg per mile round trip from pick up location to delivery and back, with del min of $150 and min mileage rate of $2.50 per mile. Mandatory $100hr detention after 30 min of arrival with mandatory clean out fee for asphalt per day. If O/O’s and truck companies refused to budge on these terms then making enough to cover fuel cost and combat inflation would never be an issue to keep the doors open “if” you can keep the truck under a load. Honestly $5 a mile would be great right now for me and my truck, but too many will undercut the rate just to make their truck and insurance payment tainting the market.

It depends on your states regulations you can find that info on the department of transportation website. In the greater Houston area there is no log required for dump truck drivers.
@AdmiralRustyShackleford Жыл бұрын
A lot of the time, if you're under a certain distance radius (usually 150mi as-the-crow-flies from your starting point) you're not required to keep a log. I used to drive a flatbed hauling lumber and stayed within the city's metro area, only needed a log if I went way outside the area.
