.50 + cpm

[ltlloveaffair]

Are there any OTR companies that are paying over .50 CPM starting out? I have not been involved in OTR for a long, long time. A coworker and I were talking about this and the question came up. We live in the north east and I would imagine OTR companies are paying more to get drivers from around here.

If someone could shed some light on this, it's greatly appreciated. Be safe and be happy everyone.

God bless.

i doubt anyone will pay you $0.50 starting out. if you are new, your best bet is to get on with a soft drink company or a local outfit that hires newbies. after you get your experience, move on to a ltl carrier.
