I’ve been a fleet refueler for a little under a year now. Some things to take from this video is that it really is a good gig. However it isn’t as easy as he makes it seem. Dragging 200ft hoses and delivering an average of 9,000 gallons a night 70 hours a week is mentally and physically exhausting. On the bright side, like he said I’m home every night and working this job has helped me pay for my first home on my own. I have talked to a few other guys and the lowest paid guy made 84k last year. It’s not a popular career but it’s a great one.

To Prime Reacts Gaming. Having a Class B CDL with passenger school bus and airbrake endorsements can be just as profitable as having a Class A CDL in the right situation. Plus you don’t have to go over the road and school systems will pay for your training. You don’t have to worry about going into and dealing as much with the DOT like OTR truckers do. Either way is a good move.

From the pics in the video, it looks like he did reefer for Stevens Transport and flatbed for Melton. Stevens would have paid him under $1k per week. Melton would have paid better, but not hard to beat with hourly and overtime.

Depends on who you work for and where. I drove a tank wagon like this for 2 years at the time made about $50,000 a year maybe $55,000. Job could be a pain in the ass. Loading from multiple suppliers at the port. Tracking all your fuel. I delivered to boats, mines, marinas, farms, etc. Sometimes was fun, most of the time I hated it. Lol I suppose working for a private construction company like this might not be too bad

Get a job with a local fuel company, and you can bring fuel to farmers, industrial companies, anywhere they have their own fuel tanks. I did this for years and I would make several stops a day. Sometimes it was the whole truck full of fuel and sometimes it was 100-200 gallons of diesel, it all depends. Was a good job

A bit of info from a guy that knows a little about this type of work. You can take the path this dude, and find a company with their own fuel truck. They're out there. I can think of at last one local company that has their own truck for their paving equipment. However, at least if you are in an area where delivering heating fuel is a thing, you can talk to any of the local fuel companies. Odds are good they have a diesel truck in addition to oil and/or propane trucks. My employer has all three, and the diesel truck isn't a sought-after gig. Many of us prefer to drag hoses across lawns vs having to climb on equipment. But if that's your thing, a fuel company would be happy to have you. If it's not, you can always do residential/commercial bobtail work. There's money in it either way.
