I highly recommend all you drivers out there to get your own authority as soon as possible and if you have the knowledge and smarts to go after your own customers then do it. That's where the real money is.

I work security at the gates going into the locations. I've seen high wait times like you're saying. Seen some wait up to 13 hours to drop their load. I've worked in other locations and seen some run 8 to 10 loads a day. In and out all day, running those trucks almost 24 hours before they take a break. Like you said, depends on how far they have to drive to pick up their load and if anything on location breaks or goes down.

@LC-in5or Well it depends. For those trucks waiting hours to drop at a location, yes. But for those that are moving and doing 8 to 10 loads a day? Those sand trucks make $300 per load. So if it takes them 1.5. Hours to pickup the sand, drive to drop off location, unload, then they just made $300 in 1 to 2 hours. It would suck if they were only making $25 per hour.

Great information on frac sand hauling. Is there chatter in oilfield about oil prices/recession/oilfield slowdown? (Maybe this could be a video idea). What happens if oil prices keep sliding down ($67 as I write this)? What are the first signs or layoffs in oilfield? Do water haulers have to worry? Will your producing wells that you service slow down or be shut down? Have you been through an oilfield slump? Btw, I start my "first day" this afternoon at a big agricultural coop and using my new CDL. Thanks for doing these videos, keep up the good work!

@eleffe5587 The first sign of layoffs in the oilfield is its an election year. My husband worked in the oilfield for 14 years and always got laid off or demoted while others were laid off during election years only. Every 4 years like clockwork. So yes, could be coming soon but after the election, jobs will come back.

I hauled sand in Louisiana with my own hopper and then hauling the boxes in Louisiana and South/East Texas. My truck is pre ELD so I ran 24/7. Basically every 8 hrs i would nap 4-5 and then back on it. You pick somewhere for your "home" place and run time sheets. The ELD guys would cry but I was there to make money, not friends. It went really good until brokers brought in more trucks. 20 trucks can get along together but 45 meant dipshits throwing trash, parking where their not supposed etc. You have to remember, there is money to be made so companies with alot of trucks will throw anybody in a truck. One truck in Louisiana got busted for ALOT of drugs. Three in texas got busted for smuggling people. The lease roads in Texas will break your truck at 10 mph. Oil pans, leaf springs, tires/rims, bumpers, are usually the victims. East Texas is REALLY expensive for owner operators. Front wheel bearing went out. The cheapest was quoted at $17,000 and you usually do both at the same time so it jumped to $25,000.00. I hauled it back home to Minnesota and paid my mechanic $14,000.00. So be carefull. Good money brings the scams, thieves, and anything else to mess, rob, steal, and screw you out of that money. there's fights, saw one guy beat another with his hard hat (that's why my hard hat has a blood splatter design). Now I haul water for wind tower projects. More money, hourly wage with 2 two trucks.

How much is the pay if you're an owner operator. I was a roughneck for 2 years. And always was jealous of the truckers making more then me and not even breaking their backs. Im about to go to school and get my class a cdl. But eventually i want to gain some experiance then work on getting my own truck and start hauling frac sand

Not exactly for sure, I would guess around 6-7k gross per week if you can do 3 loads a day. I’d say around a $1500 fuel bill. I remember pay used to be better back in 2016 but over the years has dropped off. That is a good goal to keep, I always say invest into something you enjoy doing.

Yes it's a pretty simple job, as a company driver I wouldn't recommend it to anyone, if companies aren't paying hourly as most trucking positions are in the Oilfield, such as sand, that simply means they don't want to pay for your standby as an employee. And trust me it's alot of waiting. But for an O/O it's a decent gig that usually pays well.

Sand haulers and water truck drivers are the worst!! They get paid in a way that makes them start "chasing the money". They drive too fast for the roads they're on. Very seldom will either drive the speed limit. It makes all of us real oilworkers hate them!!! In fact, I remember about 7 years ago being run off of the road by a watertanker while driving up a "lease entry road" onto a well site. I think that if you have to drive as fast as these clowns do, then you should find another job that pays better. It would be better than risking the lives of all the men on the lease roads just trying to go to work or back to wherever they sleep. I'll say it again, I hate sand haulers and water truck drivers!!!!
