Chris you were near my neck of the woods. That's awesome. 1:34 You were in Ellwood City PA. I used to work for that McElwain Chevy dealer as a lot attendant years ago. At 5:32 almost drove by my home terminal in North Lima Ohio. They are building a Love's there off exit 232. Keep the videos coming. Love your content.

Seems like everything has to go right for you to make money there. And if your not on top of you layovers delays etc etc you get skimmed on your pay. FedEx sounds better to me just hook up and go no customers. Everything is on the app just arrive check in locate your trailer/s hook up check out and go. Back with in 5 days 2 home and bring in anyway from $2000-2600 and my current rate of .80 cent split.

Can you explain a little more about the schedule? I just can’t see how they just let you pick when you want to work. I’m guessing you have to work a certain amount of days a week? Thanks

Sure thing! We have to run 2 loads per week (minimum), and that could be 2-4 days. You choose when to start. You choose when to stop for the week. I’ve started on Sunday and worked through Saturday before. I’ve also started on a Monday and went home Thursday. You can pick when to start and stop. (Other terminals may vary)
