Looking to join the fleet in Baltimore. So maybe I can expect .50cpm. Not bad. Do you get paid for DH miles or just loaded miles?

Very few carriers withhold pay for DH (DH=deadhead=empty). The ones that do don't pay by the mile, such as owner operator/lease operator being paid by load percentage or company drivers who are paid percentage, such as car haulers.

There are a few that pay a reduced cpm for dh miles, such as Continental Express in Sidney, Ohio, a refrigerated carrier. They are at about 42 cpm loaded and 25 or so empty.
