It was changed a few years back linehaul top out is 2 years. Hourly top out is 36mos.
Idk about the terminal where your applying to. But currently at my terminal here in No. Cal. I've only worked less than 6 days/week only 2 times for the 2.5 months I've been with OD. So there's plenty of work.Ok thanks, my buddies that work at OD all like it there. Do they ever layoff drivers?
Will i be able to work as much as i want too?
Thanks
I'm out of Wichita,but I know a bit about PAR,Its a breakbulk so they have runs that radiate every direction on the compass out of there,most of the bid runs are meet and turns and they run anywhere from 400 to 650 miles out of there.They also have some teams that turn mostly to Rialto CA a couple times a week and a few wild (system) drivers that will do overnight or up to weekly runs.I put in an application at OD in parsons, KS.
I would like to know how the line runs out of there are, and how soon do health benenfits start after the hire date. If anyone works at this terminal please let me know.
If starting linehaul rate is around 52 what is the rest of the wage progression? After 1 year and top MILEAGE rate after 2 years any answers?Starting linehaul pay is about 52 cpm,although thats for an experienced driver. Fresh out of school your'e probably going to spend some time with a trainer might also affect your starting pay. It wouldn't be unreasonable to expect 2500-3000 miles a week working out of HAR once you figure out the system. I'd guess wouldn't take more than a years service at HAR to snag a bid. Good Luck!!
Anyone know the one year mileage rate for linehaul drivers?Top rate is reached in increments in three years, and general pay raises are also added in. Drivers that hire on from another LTL start at a slightly higher rate if I remember correctly.

Off topic, but OD seems to have a lot of day runs, at least here in Dallas-Fort Worth. Is this a correct observation?That's true, I started at the one year rate.

Also, rumor has it your Dallas terminal is adding 100 doors!
