Hey all,
I currently run for 4 different carriers, I am getting great miles, fight for good rates and my bills are getting paid every month. I sometimes wonder how I stack up against others doing the same thing. You ever wonder that? I hear lots of numbers all over the board at truck stops but I think that numbers from those of us on EO may be a bit more credible.
I am not going to ask you to list the carriers you run for or give away any big secrets. I am interested in putting together averages for us multi-carrier drivers and I will share that info after I get the numbers put together. Would you take a minute and answer the following questions? You can either post here in the forum or send me a PM. Let's just look at the numbers for that last 3 months or so.
What type of vehicle do you drive?
How many carriers do you run for?
How many miles do you average a month?
What is your average rate per mile?
How many miles of dead head are you averaging?
How often do you get home?
How many days a month do you spend out of service?
Are you happy doing what you do?
I will run the numbers for the whole group, top and bottom 20% and break it down by type of vehicle. I think it would be helpful for all of us to see where we stand. I think I am going to start a thread in the Carrier Forum as well so all of us Multi-Carrier drivers can have a place to share what is working and what is not.
See ya out there!
