Its just amazing that they know all the stops you are going to, but just can't seem to load on pallets in order of your stops. That just pure laziness on their part.
I wish they would put all the products on pallets lord knows the trailer is big enough for it. But here we are spending 12 to 14 hours just dollar tree. The system they have needs change
Discovered your channel yesterday, and am on my 4th video. Very eye opening to me, a retired engineer. I do have a cousin who works in your industry, and I feel even more for what you folks go through. Thank you for your channel!
Yea it’s definitely not easy over here I dealt with a lot before I actually made the channel just tryna shed a little light on the situation over here. I decided to make the channel to show my journey here at werner while I’m still here. Definitely more crazy videos to come
I worked at a retail outlet years ago that unloaded trucks like yours. I’m in CDL school now and glad I came across your video as I’m interested in Werner. To hear all the complaints from you younger guys gives me great hope that I’ll be able to get a dollar tree account in short time. Thank you!
I pray all goes well for you on your journey. You definitely be able to get on the dollar tree account with Werner they always looking for drivers so it’s a great start for you if that’s what you prefer to be on.
While you’re in cdl school…why not think of getting into the LtL world and start making some really good money instead of driving around unloading trailers getting pennies on the dollar…LtL jobs are the jobs you want and be home and happy…make $120 thousand a year and be home what more can you ask for…think about it!
@@leonardk.3776 Thank you! I’ll look into it for sure. The reason I’m thinking about Dollar Tree is my kids are grown with children, grandkids in another state and I thought it would be a great experience and get some exercise while I’m at it. 😂 But I could always relocate and perhaps make a home somewhere else that would make home time worth it! Otherwise I’m going to be living in the rig.
@@sandrabrooksher666 yep, that’s great…I’ve been there and done that too in my younger years…ok I thought I’d share that bit of information to the younger generation of transport operators…30 years out here and 20 with my company…
Yes you definitely will get a lot of exercise on the account you will drop some weight within the first couple weeks it’s very vigorous but pace your self don’t try go super hard it will wear your body down quick but very good idea to try it to get your health in check
Yo I never ended up going to the dollar tree account for Werner. I canceled last minute but I’m set to leave on Wednesday Fr fr this time. I already have 3 years experience driving but these local jobs here (San Antonio Texas) either don’t pay shit and the ones that do ain’t hiring. Dollar tree Rosenberg averaging at 1800$ a week maybe more so I’m gone fr fr. Tired of these weak ass checks. I know it’s hard work but at the end of the day I’m the captain of the ship so if I need to take a breather I will do exactly that. How you been tho ? You still over there ??
I been good I left Werner in mid March they was on bs with me with the loads knowing they didn’t have enough for everyone hence why you see 1000+ stores are closing down. But yea pace your self your in Texas so those trailers will be extremely hot try keep as much water with you as possible. If you feel like you may pass out just stop. Take your break inside the truck with the AC on. Before I left they did say this whole setup was going to change to pallets and lift gates but idk when that will happen. You might get lucky with some stores some of those workers will jump inside the truck and help
I work at a Dollar tree just under 3wks. Our back of the store where all the products go. Its a mess in the back. I think were getting another truck load tomorrow. 😮. So far l enjoy my job. Be safe driving..thanks for bringing our items.
I dollar general for d/c in Georgia, i have never seen dollar general store with a pleasant manager or organized back room yet, the last thing i wanna hear is whiney manager as if they unload 53 foot trailers by hand by themselves, and the products are horribly stacked sometimes not strapped, n we have to take back as many roll trainers as possible
Bro I’ve dealt with a few rude managers in my time always asking how many more panels left or their mad because I’m moving at their pace which is slow because lack of staff or products falling off the rollers. They don’t understand the process we as drivers have to drive and unload it be nice if they were pleasant and move with purpose cause they are not the only store for the day but that’s how they do you can’t please them
I drive the same kind of freight you do here in Australia. Thankfully all our freight is mounted on pallets to be loaded/unloaded using a pallet jack. Glad I don’t ever get loads like this, although I have had pallets tip over due to not being wrapped correctly at the distribution centre.
yes. some companies would do this kind of BS to screw drivers. I deliver loads that stuff with 1500 tires and I was the only one to unload that shit to stops. And everyone in store just stood there watching me unloading. Company paid me $150 for one trailer, so I refused to unload when I had the same tires load next time, the customer got mad, I called that company to send lumber to unload that shit because I would bust my fingers throw tires one by one. Now, I work for better company and this never happen again.
I highly agree and this is why I make this content I been on the account for a year already and it’s been one hell of a time doin it. I done seen the worse of the worse before I started this channel and I can say we are getting the most royal screw. It’s been days I could not finish load’s because I ran out of time they don’t care as well as dealing with angry petty customers it’s a trip here. Crazy how you were doing almost the exact thing but just working with tires I share your pain
Whats the point of having a CDL license if your doing warehouse work like unloading a trailer by hand? You a real soldier bruh cuz ain't no way im doing that 😂... Best of luck to you💯
Why would anyone want to be a slave to that job. I wouldn't work for Werner for any amount of money. These big companies make me sick. Know your worth and go get paid right and get treated right
I agree it’s a lot of manual labor does take a lot out on your body. Werner literally Pushes to you dollar accounts that’s mainly their biggest offer due to that account being a revolving door. But I’m here for my experience so once I achieve my year which I’m almost there I will be shopping around for something better
Brother its obvious you don't mind the hard work. If they would just damn pay you right for it.The work is just part of it. Its like you said, the headaches and the hassle. They dont even think about that. Hard as it is for people to find good help and they don't appreciate it when they do.
Honestly your correct I don’t mind the hard work but the compensation part is horrible among many other things. It’s sad that you can’t find jobs any more that treat you like a person and not a machine. This account is truly a headache but at the end of the day Werner and dollar tree need to do right by the people who load and unload these trailers
Yea I do that sometimes I would pull up to see if I could get it to be even but most times the doors have been through hell that’s why they so hard to close
I used to work for DT and always hated seeing how the DCs loaded the trailers. I saw many trucks come to me as first stop and the drivers open the doors and run because they didn’t want to get hit with boxes.
No. Not worth it. Nope. I used to work for big company at distribution center. And I get some shitty trailer like this and it take me all day to finish one trailer. No thanks. Never again. But thanks to this company for putting me in early retirement. Life is good.
I highly agree it does take a day or even a part of the next day to finish the trailer depending on the staff of the store how fast they move how many stops you have it’s a lot of things to fact in. But yea the trailer is loaded in the worse way pure negligence on their loaders but at the end of the day they do not care I made many reports sent many pictures of they way the trailer was loaded never got a response
I have been with this account for 2 weeks now after trianing. The trailer is so fucking hot, the stops are tight in sime places, and they fucking overload the trailer which takes over a day to unload sometimes. I dont think its worth it u less you are a trainer or owner operator. I got $1400 after taxes thats with $229 unloading per trailer and 0.64 cpm. I am thinking of my exit plans.
Bro I feel your pain it’s extremely hot in the summer no matter what you do your constantly sweating and it’s draining your energy same time to. It sucks that the drivers have to drive and unload with poor pay but hopefully these videos can reach the right people and get changes made. They load the trailers for a team of people not for a solo driver. Hang in there bro 💪🏾
I say it all the time it’s crazy that they have not figured out a better system to deliver these items to these stores better yet why are these things not on pallets
Family dollar trucks are the same. It's hard work. I worked for Dollar Tree Family Dollar combo. we had a Family Dollar truck at the store setup that was 6,000 pieces handling every piece coming off the truck putting it on U-boats then. I always felt bad for the drivers some drivers knew how to set up the rollers while others didn't and freight literally flying off the rollers when they didn't get the curve and height right.
Unloading the trailer not hard waiting on customers is frustrating part not all but some stores are slow n get u behind schedule plus this account should pay more definitely each store needs 3 or more stockers at these stores
I definitely agree bro need more pay and a better unloading system. Dollar tree can’t keep workers I been to stores where it’s just the store manager doing the unload no help. It’s rare if you get a store with 3 or more expect 2 people and expect to be finished with next to no hours left.
I work at UPS as a package handler. $300 is what I make in a week to load 2trailers a day. I would love to do this and make 3times that what I make now.
I remember working @ home depot and i had to unload an 18 wheeler full of Christmas trees 🌲 from the NW by hand, man was that a task, i went into work @ 6AM and left at 7PM and i still wasnt quite finished
I did the same job for Walgreens in the early 2000's that crap is slave labor building those rollers and picking up heavy stuff...not worth that little pay..
Your instructor was right this account they floor load the products to the ceiling of the trailer. This just dollar tree other accounts they use pallets
I’m on dolla tree, it’s not worth it but it does pay about 1k miles worth of driving plus pays your miles you did drive so if you wanna drive shorter and get some workout then it beats driving far AF all week . I be gone for 2 days and home on the third . Taxes and child support will take a trailer worth of pay but at least my kids get they bread and I can cancel taxes till later tho ? I’m solo , regional and be home a lot . Y’all be gone two weeks 24days or home daily but be leaving for work Monday through Friday , fuck that I’m out and back home most times the next day and reset my DOT CLOCK for days at home . I rather work hard get my money and be back at the crib verses being gone far far away driving a ton of hours . Imagine being in the middle of a 53ft trailer and sweating in an below zero temperature? 😢😢😢😢 at 4 am DFFFF
Yea l agreed it’s not a fun experience it kind of makes you not want to drive anymore. It’s crazy how 1 company can change your whole outlook on being a truck driver. I’ve had plenty of crappy days it’s just I’m now deciding to record it and show what I deal with. Approaching my 1 year mark soon I will start shopping around. Appreciate your support stay tuned more content soon
Bruh at that point just go to Food Service where you get paid hourly $25+ and OT for almost the same work. I do Regional no touch freight and im home weekends for almost $2K a week.
@@257truckingvlogTv1bro, ain't no one doin no touch freight, Makin 2k as a company driver. Don't let these dudes fool you. $25 hour x 60 only equals 1500 lol. Local delivery is where it's at, food service as well. I do parishables for JB hunt local, unload, 3-6 stops a day. My pay averages to $50 a hour. The moral of the story is, unloading does pay off. I use an ejack so it's not much work
U r frustrated beyond that job. It's obvious in you voice. Inl have this account and for wjat I need to do it will soon be taken care of. Everyone's goals and bills are different. But yeah it's obvious something you are doing is not being taken care of and that job is really an inconvenience. Good Luck and Breathe Easy. I do agree with the sloppy packing
This video is all over the place, I would of walk out and left that job, slave been abolish, obviously that company givestwo sh.. about you their equipments look unsafe and all torn up.
Did dollar tree out of school for 5.5 months and went into a local account. The mileage pay is excellent out of Connecticut(94 cents pm) and 300 per trailer completed. Only problem is, you'll only get 3 trailers.done a week, 4 at most if you over exert yourself. You'll still be working 6 days bc you have to drive to your first stop the night before. Brutal work. Makes no sense how you have to backup , hop curbs, n beat up your truck to fit into their loading areas. The items should be on pallets and they should have lift gate trucks. Only do it if you can't find anything else
Yea it’s crazy with the backing done lost a few mudflap on the Acc but hopefully one day they will palletize these loads and use lift gate trucks but the way some of these stores built seems impossible but they got the millions to make it happen
@@257truckingvlogTv1 atleast have a better roller system. Each store should have adjustable rollers for the truck. Using paper towel boxes and crates is rediculus lol. very tedious and tiring to drive7 hours from Maine to CT and have to take crates n rollers off a truck, after unloading boxes in a 100 degree trailer all day. I got out as soon as I could lol
I don’t blame you for leaving haven’t been up to Maine in forever anytime I went up there was snowing. But I heard they supposed to make the transition to pallets
@@257truckingvlogTv1 probably no choice at this point. Drivers don't wanna do it anymore and the stores don't have enough people to handle the deliveries. Stick with it if tbr change is soon and ask if they will grant the current drivers the same rates, I'm sure tbr new ones won't get 94 cents and $300 a trailer .
Honestly I’m tryna get away from the laborious work if the pay is right I don’t mind doin it tho but I’m tryna find a company or account that works for me
I did this account in Berwick PA for Werner for a little bit more than 2 months and quit. To unload a 53 ft trailer alone takes no less than 10 hours, plus 6-7 hours driving for a 250 miles trip. Normally 4 stops. considering those shopping centers in north NJ,It's brutal for new drivers. For Saturday delivery, my manager seems alway did me a favor "take this delivery and go home for the weekend'. You are right, the last stop is 120 mile from where i live. Why don't you give me a load close to my house? All the time I was assigned 53 ft trailer and i was so jealous to see old drivers ran way with 28ft or even 16ft trailers,happily. When i quit, they 'forget ' my one unload paid,$260.I called in a couple times. They didn't say not going pay me, but i never got that money.
Honestly now it’s taking almost every hour you have on your clock to complete the load due to majority of the stores having little to no staff. Lately I’ve been having to unload and jump off the truck and help in the stock room because there’s no staff. To top it off the lack of loads plus when you do get a load your being killed with 3500 to 4500 pieces. There’s really no other accounts available in north east it’s all dollar stores and leaving the company is the only option but you don’t even know what your walking into over there. The trucking industry is bad right now in my opinion. But I agree they abuse the younger guys and give the older heads better loads. I can count on 1 hand how many times I had a light load it’s not much
@@asiatic_soldier5507 Dollar Tree is the easiest account IMO. Also you do not want small trailers those stores suck. Especially Jersey City DT. Small trailers pay less and you cant do a backhaul. My best advice is do not speed and dont ever drive in the snow. 1 mistake and youre off to Western Express.
I don't care to run any loads for any company to small stores in insane locations without a loading dock, forklift or pallet jack. Much less a floor load that looks like Jr. High Schools students threw it in the trailer. I understand that you start out small but come on. I started out in rock buckets before going OTR and then moved to air freight and from there into production and lighting and exhibit logistics. If I wanted to handle freight I would work in a warehouse driving a fork. My CDL plainly says DRIVERS license, not lumper. Hands, you are giving away your blood and sweat for very little gain by lumping freight that you delivered without a loading dock or a forklift. But I am glad somebody wants to do it. I don't shop at Dollartree or Family Dollar or any of that. But be aware of how you are giving away your labor for very little and if you injure yourself unloading someone else's freight, what then ? I have found better treatment by driving for fleets with 200-250 power units than any mega-carrier. Get some experience and get the hell away from these companies. I spent just over 32 years on the road and it is not for everyone. And when I miss it, I watch some of these Werner and Schneider videos. Seriously hands, I thank you for what you do and don't sell yourself cheap. Please try to make it home for Christmas, they grow and are gone before you know it. Brothers of the highway, children of the wind.
Bro, how you doing? Watching your videos. Thats crazy how they packed your trailers, no regards for drivers safety. I give you alot props for unloading a whole trailer. I think just for unloading, they should pay drivers at least $450. I applied with werner on a coca cola account, and they trying to dump my ass on a dollar tree account. I told them no. And the coke account is still open. You think of switching accounts? Stay safe out there my brother and thanks for everything you do out there
Bro I appreciate your support. I definitely agree with you the pay should be more but you know how most mega carriers are they line their pockets first and the drivers last with the crumbs. I’ve thought about switching but due to the area I live in it’s not much to pick from I have ran some Coca Cola loads stay tuned for those videos to drop actually my next video is a coke load. I’m pretty much running on whatever account they have I think they have issues with freight it’s not enough for everyone. But yea they looking to push everyone on them dollar accounts because it’s a revolving door for that account. Appreciate your support more content on the way!!!!
@@257truckingvlogTv1 i just think that they try there chances by telling drivers that Dollar tree account is the only account they have available, and they'll try to force someone to take it, knowing that they have many other accounts, and most drivers don't like touch freight, especially the Dollar tree accounts or dollar general. But stay safe out there bro
Pretty much cause when I applied they told me all they had in my area was dollar tree no other account was mentioned to me so I had no options to pick from. Honestly every account has its bs so you have to pick your posion
I'D TELL THEM IT'S NOT MY JOB TO BE LOOKING FOR EQUIPMENT THAT SHOULD ALREADY BE ON THE TRUCK. IT ALSO SHOULD BE AT LEAST 6FT ALOTTED FROM THE DOOR FOR YOUR EQUIPMENT TO FIT
Bro that’s why I make these videos tryna bring these things to light cause we suffering bad on the account. Hopefully tryna reach the right people to get some changes made. They over loading the trailers all kinds of craziness going on with the trailers smh it’s sad they getting away with this
@kelli1970 yea I agree when I got hired by them they were only offering dollar store accounts that’s where they pretty much send everybody and see who last the longest. It’s honestly a revolving door on that account
Not sure what your pay is but I have 1 year experience and they told me they’ll start me at 80 cents per mile and 250$ per load out of San Antonio Texas
Getting 92 cents per mile 300 a load but barely had any work since January it’s been really bad getting like 1 to 2 loads a week and most the loads is over 4,000 pieces
I’m taking off for orientation Monday , I’m actually looking forward to dollar tree cuz I needa get in shape and shit where else you gonna find 80 cents per mile in this market rn lmaon
Yeah I feel your pain especially with gladhands Bushings. Who didn't say anything about? What? The condition That's on that trailer.. And the infamous ABS Light. And Some that have holes in the trailer. Or registration is about to expire.. There are some people that are doing their jobs and they're some people that aren't need to weed them out.. Because there's nothing where's the waiting for 2 hours to get your glad hands repaired? Because somebody didn't catch it when they drop it off.. But you did you got that waste 2 hours because they didn't catch it?. Or at least they can do is reported It doesn't take that much to report 2 extra minutes Would make a better? How come so when you know that it's trailer you're getting? Is the trailer you're getting in no surprises? 2 minutes to write a down in the note. There's a problem with the ABS there's problems with the gladhand air leaking. Brakes are stuck something. Is there retailer again guarantee you? A. DOT? Officer. Is going? To have. A Field day. With That. Because somebody do their job gets hes. Going? To Pay that ticket. Or Guess who is going to get in trouble? For not doing their job for them. And lights to. Not the person that dropped off the trailer last. Not the person that dropped off the trailer last. That little bit of time adds up. Wasted because of that person. And you know who you are. For those people that's a douchebag move.
I’m not sure what State your out of but it’s different at every Distribution center I know when I was first starting it was $300 to unload and .92 cents per mile. Other distribution center I hear was like $260 and .67 cents per mile. So just depending on where you live is the difference in pay. But also you need the miles to go with the pay so if you working a load with low miles it’s free labor for the company they are eating majority of the profit. Maybe you could make $1200 on the account it all depends on how many loads you do if they have any available
Ok I’m not sure if there’s a Dollar tree DC over there the closest to you I know is in Oklahoma I’m not sure if there’s one in Ohio but yea you could call Werner and get all the information about where’s your closest DC and make your decision I’m not 100% familiar with DG but it’s almost the same concept as far as unloading your using rolltainers and not roller racks like DT I’m not sure too much on the pay
It depends on the store and the staff sometimes could be a day or sometimes can be a day a piece of the next day. Dollar tree stops taking deliveries at 5pm so if you not finish before that you have to go into the next day to continue delivering
Honestly you would have to run everyday for the year to make 100k but the possibility of that happening is very slim giving the amount of drivers at the distribution center I know my location has 80 drivers so you getting like 2 loads a week be lucky if you get 3 loads. Not sure which location you will be running out of but pace yourself
@@257truckingvlogTv1 oh ok I’m considering the Northeastern Regional. When you say two loads that means two trucks right? 2-3 stores each truck and a truck takes a couple days to unload?
Yea 2 loads is 2 trucks. You will get anywhere from 3 to 5 stops all must be done in a day. I’d you fall behind meaning you need to be at your last store before 5pm or they won’t take you, they will reschedule the stop for the next day. North east region so you be up here with me most likely. Well when you start they will give you some light loads until you come off the probation after that you getting the big boys
No problem bro I appreciate the support. Glad I could help you get a understanding of how the account works. In case if you ever work the account you seen first hand the bs. More content on the way tho bro any questions feel free to ask 💪🏾
Yea bro I’m on the East. I ain’t even know the pay was different in other states I thought it was all the same. We ain’t got it all that good we been struggling with freight since January that’s why they have us working dollar tree and other accounts to make money but if you do get a dollar tree load you getting hit with 4 stops 4300+ pieces
Agreed I’m always driving back tired as hell but there’s times when I can’t make the drive I will sleep in a rest area for the night. But it is very dangerous to be on the road after doing 12 hours of that bs
Oh also Landing gear pad missing.. I've only been driving to only 3 months. Just imagine if o Were driving for a Just imagine if i Were? Where driving for a year.
@@257truckingvlogTv1 I know a couple of guys that love it, they don’t have to deal with otr. All that detention and waiting on loads that comes with otr.
Definitely agree the packing behind the pretty part ruins your day everything is falling and you better believe they threw a bunch of heavy boxes on top there as well
@ashleywildonger honest 1-2 loads a week you be lucky if you get 2. It’s been very very slow since January. If you seen my other videos I’ve been working other accounts to make up their lack of work
@@257truckingvlogTv1 I would get a job as a Day driver maby as a local driver The company is just making money from your hard work and not paying you Shit Hell try and put in a job application with Swift from what I understand most of their business is Drop and hook or no touch freight Man work smarter not harder
@@257truckingvlogTv1 yeah but that’s too much work for me…all I’m gonna do is drive the truck bring the load to them and they can have it…🤣🤣drop and hook…I ain unloading sit! they think cdl stands for commercial driver lumper…hell naw it don’t…bro. you better look into LtL and get that money…old dominion,fedex freight,estes express,r&l carriers etc look into it that’s where the dollars at…2 years experience with your hazardous materials and doubles and triples…stop playing…you see them guys pulling doubles going down the road and ask them when you see um at the truck stop…120 thousand a year bro…
That’s facts bro unfortunately when I was getting my foot in the door at Werner they was only offer dollar accounts literally every one I was in orientation with ended up on a dollar account. It’s been all bad since I been here started recording the sh1t tryna bring change but honestly they need to revamp the whole account they don’t have enough staff to do touch freight at dollar tree most store have 2 people for the truck and what they paying us to do this bizarre caveman activity is not enough. Soon chuck a ✌🏾 to Werner and dollar tree
I guess everyone who doesn’t leave their truck at the Distribution center and has a roller rack on the back of their truck to keep their rollers because they don’t hand out rollers everyday are lazy. You sound real smart there my guy
Its just amazing that they know all the stops you are going to, but just can't seem to load on pallets in order of your stops. That just pure laziness on their part.
I wish they would put all the products on pallets lord knows the trailer is big enough for it. But here we are spending 12 to 14 hours just dollar tree. The system they have needs change
They are abusing you and paying you scraps. I'm glad they didn't accept me after cdl school.
My brother you ain’t never lie it’s really a sweat shop for pennies worth of pay compared to what the company make off the load

Yes you definitely will get a lot of exercise on the account you will drop some weight within the first couple weeks it’s very vigorous but pace your self don’t try go super hard it will wear your body down quick but very good idea to try it to get your health in check
Yo I never ended up going to the dollar tree account for Werner. I canceled last minute but I’m set to leave on Wednesday Fr fr this time. I already have 3 years experience driving but these local jobs here (San Antonio Texas) either don’t pay shit and the ones that do ain’t hiring. Dollar tree Rosenberg averaging at 1800$ a week maybe more so I’m gone fr fr. Tired of these weak ass checks. I know it’s hard work but at the end of the day I’m the captain of the ship so if I need to take a breather I will do exactly that. How you been tho ? You still over there ??
I been good I left Werner in mid March they was on bs with me with the loads knowing they didn’t have enough for everyone hence why you see 1000+ stores are closing down. But yea pace your self your in Texas so those trailers will be extremely hot try keep as much water with you as possible. If you feel like you may pass out just stop. Take your break inside the truck with the AC on. Before I left they did say this whole setup was going to change to pallets and lift gates but idk when that will happen. You might get lucky with some stores some of those workers will jump inside the truck and help
I work at a Dollar tree just under 3wks. Our back of the store where all the products go. Its a mess in the back. I think were getting another truck load tomorrow. 😮. So far l enjoy my job. Be safe driving..thanks for bringing our items.
Appreciate your support.
Not sure which dollar tree your from but some stores are messy but that’s just part of the job
I dollar general for d/c in Georgia, i have never seen dollar general store with a pleasant manager or organized back room yet, the last thing i wanna hear is whiney manager as if they unload 53 foot trailers by hand by themselves, and the products are horribly stacked sometimes not strapped, n we have to take back as many roll trainers as possible
Bro I’ve dealt with a few rude managers in my time always asking how many more panels left or their mad because I’m moving at their pace which is slow because lack of staff or products falling off the rollers. They don’t understand the process we as drivers have to drive and unload it be nice if they were pleasant and move with purpose cause they are not the only store for the day but that’s how they do you can’t please them
Do what you have to do…get your experience then leave. I’m in the same situation with another company
That’s a fact bro I’m approaching the 1 year mark so I’m start looking once I get that locked in
Central transportation. I suggest getting tankers and doing that. Ts a cakewalk plus they got more local positions
Definitely appreciate your advice bro 💪🏾
@@marcuswrayboiI got my endorsements, imma check them out.
$539 for that load is crazy and I bet that’s the pay before tax gets taken out 🤦🏽♂️
Yea that’s before taxes
Watching this gave me flared up my PTSD from when I worked the family dollar account with Werner 🤦🏽♂️
lol should have put trigger warning on the video. But yea this stuff do stress you our
I drive the same kind of freight you do here in Australia. Thankfully all our freight is mounted on pallets to be loaded/unloaded using a pallet jack. Glad I don’t ever get loads like this, although I have had pallets tip over due to not being wrapped correctly at the distribution centre.
Appreciate the love from Australia. It’s good to know you guys got it a bit easier over there. Might have to travel over there for work lol
If not for my experience with being a Walmart truck unloader, this would make me extremely intimidated 💆🏾♀️
Lol trust me I’m intimidated everytime I open those back doors and see something crazy
yes. some companies would do this kind of BS to screw drivers. I deliver loads that stuff with 1500 tires and I was the only one to unload that shit to stops. And everyone in store just stood there watching me unloading. Company paid me $150 for one trailer, so I refused to unload when I had the same tires load next time, the customer got mad, I called that company to send lumber to unload that shit because I would bust my fingers throw tires one by one. Now, I work for better company and this never happen again.
I highly agree and this is why I make this content I been on the account for a year already and it’s been one hell of a time doin it. I done seen the worse of the worse before I started this channel and I can say we are getting the most royal screw. It’s been days I could not finish load’s because I ran out of time they don’t care as well as dealing with angry petty customers it’s a trip here. Crazy how you were doing almost the exact thing but just working with tires I share your pain
Damn bro...
Facts
Whats the point of having a CDL license if your doing warehouse work like unloading a trailer by hand?
You a real soldier bruh cuz ain't no way im doing that 😂...
Best of luck to you💯
Bro I agree I’m tryna handle business but it’s hectic here the work and pay don’t match in my opinion
Why would anyone want to be a slave to that job. I wouldn't work for Werner for any amount of money. These big companies make me sick. Know your worth and go get paid right and get treated right
I agree it’s a lot of manual labor does take a lot out on your body. Werner literally Pushes to you dollar accounts that’s mainly their biggest offer due to that account being a revolving door. But I’m here for my experience so once I achieve my year which I’m almost there I will be shopping around for something better
Brother its obvious you don't mind the hard work. If they would just damn pay you right for it.The work is just part of it. Its like you said, the headaches and the hassle. They dont even think about that. Hard as it is for people to find good help and they don't appreciate it when they do.
Honestly your correct I don’t mind the hard work but the compensation part is horrible among many other things. It’s sad that you can’t find jobs any more that treat you like a person and not a machine. This account is truly a headache but at the end of the day Werner and dollar tree need to do right by the people who load and unload these trailers
Sometimes the trailer doors will not close properly if the ground is not level just pull up and try again
Yea I do that sometimes I would pull up to see if I could get it to be even but most times the doors have been through hell that’s why they so hard to close
I used to work for DT and always hated seeing how the DCs loaded the trailers. I saw many trucks come to me as first stop and the drivers open the doors and run because they didn’t want to get hit with boxes.
I’ve had a few run ins with poorly packed trailers. It won’t change until someone gets hurt and they catch a lawsuit
Why on earth would you load a trailer like that? US trucking is so backwards when you consider the country is supposed to be a world leader.
I say the same thing it’s loaded horribly which hopefully doesn’t happen someone could get injured back there
No. Not worth it. Nope. I used to work for big company at distribution center. And I get some shitty trailer like this and it take me all day to finish one trailer. No thanks. Never again. But thanks to this company for putting me in early retirement. Life is good.
I highly agree it does take a day or even a part of the next day to finish the trailer depending on the staff of the store how fast they move how many stops you have it’s a lot of things to fact in. But yea the trailer is loaded in the worse way pure negligence on their loaders but at the end of the day they do not care I made many reports sent many pictures of they way the trailer was loaded never got a response
I have been with this account for 2 weeks now after trianing. The trailer is so fucking hot, the stops are tight in sime places, and they fucking overload the trailer which takes over a day to unload sometimes. I dont think its worth it u less you are a trainer or owner operator. I got $1400 after taxes thats with $229 unloading per trailer and 0.64 cpm. I am thinking of my exit plans.
Bro I feel your pain it’s extremely hot in the summer no matter what you do your constantly sweating and it’s draining your energy same time to. It sucks that the drivers have to drive and unload with poor pay but hopefully these videos can reach the right people and get changes made. They load the trailers for a team of people not for a solo driver. Hang in there bro 💪🏾
Doing something like that by hand is insane.
I say it all the time it’s crazy that they have not figured out a better system to deliver these items to these stores better yet why are these things not on pallets
But they are killing your doing it
That’s facts
Family dollar trucks are the same. It's hard work. I worked for Dollar Tree Family Dollar combo. we had a Family Dollar truck at the store setup that was 6,000 pieces handling every piece coming off the truck putting it on U-boats then. I always felt bad for the drivers some drivers knew how to set up the rollers while others didn't and freight literally flying off the rollers when they didn't get the curve and height right.
@257truckingvlogTv1 you are doing an awesome job I have been on the receiving end of the rollers
Unloading the trailer not hard waiting on customers is frustrating part not all but some stores are slow n get u behind schedule plus this account should pay more definitely each store needs 3 or more stockers at these stores
I definitely agree bro need more pay and a better unloading system. Dollar tree can’t keep workers I been to stores where it’s just the store manager doing the unload no help. It’s rare if you get a store with 3 or more expect 2 people and expect to be finished with next to no hours left.
@@257truckingvlogTv1 right
I work at UPS as a package handler. $300 is what I make in a week to load 2trailers a day. I would love to do this and make 3times that what I make now.
You probably be good for this position but you gotta drive the truck also
I remember working @ home depot and i had to unload an 18 wheeler full of Christmas trees 🌲 from the NW by hand, man was that a task, i went into work @ 6AM and left at 7PM and i still wasnt quite finished
I did the same job for Walgreens in the early 2000's that crap is slave labor building those rollers and picking up heavy stuff...not worth that little pay..
I agree the work load and the pay don’t match up at all
My truck driving school instructor warned all of us about warner they floor load there trailers!!
Your instructor was right this account they floor load the products to the ceiling of the trailer. This just dollar tree other accounts they use pallets
I’m on dolla tree, it’s not worth it but it does pay about 1k miles worth of driving plus pays your miles you did drive so if you wanna drive shorter and get some workout then it beats driving far AF all week . I be gone for 2 days and home on the third . Taxes and child support will take a trailer worth of pay but at least my kids get they bread and I can cancel taxes till later tho ? I’m solo , regional and be home a lot . Y’all be gone two weeks 24days or home daily but be leaving for work Monday through Friday , fuck that I’m out and back home most times the next day and reset my DOT CLOCK for days at home . I rather work hard get my money and be back at the crib verses being gone far far away driving a ton of hours . Imagine being in the middle of a 53ft trailer and sweating in an below zero temperature? 😢😢😢😢 at 4 am DFFFF
We not even seeing 1k miles over here at DT most you getting is 300-500 miles all our stores in in the states nearby like a hour or 2 hour drive away.
Leave that job, that looks like one big stressful headache
Trust me I contemplate that same idea every time I’m just getting the exp
when i did food service it sucked pallets stacked all out of order long days etc never again not worth it at all
Yea l agreed it’s not a fun experience it kind of makes you not want to drive anymore. It’s crazy how 1 company can change your whole outlook on being a truck driver. I’ve had plenty of crappy days it’s just I’m now deciding to record it and show what I deal with. Approaching my 1 year mark soon I will start shopping around. Appreciate your support stay tuned more content soon
Bruh at that point just go to Food Service where you get paid hourly $25+ and OT for almost the same work. I do Regional no touch freight and im home weekends for almost $2K a week.
What company you with?
@@257truckingvlogTv1bro, ain't no one doin no touch freight, Makin 2k as a company driver. Don't let these dudes fool you. $25 hour x 60 only equals 1500 lol. Local delivery is where it's at, food service as well. I do parishables for JB hunt local, unload, 3-6 stops a day. My pay averages to $50 a hour. The moral of the story is, unloading does pay off. I use an ejack so it's not much work
That’s how them Sysco loads be everyday.
I had applied to Sysco but I didn’t have the experience they didn’t take me but I’m trying to move away from touch freight if the money not right
You did it so that was a yes honestly bro how they packed that trailer is like they don't give a damn
Facts bro they packed it with no regards for the driver
Michael's Crafts had them scheduled fairly well. But the first stop was usually at 2-3 AM, and you rolled from there
That’s early but if it’s less hassle that’s pretty much golden
U r frustrated beyond that job. It's obvious in you voice. Inl have this account and for wjat I need to do it will soon be taken care of. Everyone's goals and bills are different. But yeah it's obvious something you are doing is not being taken care of and that job is really an inconvenience. Good Luck and Breathe Easy.
I do agree with the sloppy packing
We do Michael's Crafts like that. But, the customers unload. I just have to hit the dock. We worked for CPT and pulled out of Hazleton PA Michael's
What company you work for?
Us express?
I would quit lol it not worth it . I did family dollar account with Werner in Florida an that account was alright.
Yea I’m just here passing time to get my experience and then I’m moving on.
This video is all over the place, I would of walk out and left that job, slave been abolish, obviously that company givestwo sh.. about you their equipments look unsafe and all torn up.
You ain’t never lie I completely agree with you very hard laborious job not the safest in the back of the truck but they don’t care
Did dollar tree out of school for 5.5 months and went into a local account.
The mileage pay is excellent out of Connecticut(94 cents pm) and 300 per trailer completed. Only problem is, you'll only get 3 trailers.done a week, 4 at most if you over exert yourself. You'll still be working 6 days bc you have to drive to your first stop the night before. Brutal work.
Makes no sense how you have to backup , hop curbs, n beat up your truck to fit into their loading areas. The items should be on pallets and they should have lift gate trucks. Only do it if you can't find anything else
Yea it’s crazy with the backing done lost a few mudflap on the Acc but hopefully one day they will palletize these loads and use lift gate trucks but the way some of these stores built seems impossible but they got the millions to make it happen
@@257truckingvlogTv1 atleast have a better roller system. Each store should have adjustable rollers for the truck. Using paper towel boxes and crates is rediculus lol. very tedious and tiring to drive7 hours from Maine to CT and have to take crates n rollers off a truck, after unloading boxes in a 100 degree trailer all day. I got out as soon as I could lol
I don’t blame you for leaving haven’t been up to Maine in forever anytime I went up there was snowing. But I heard they supposed to make the transition to pallets
@@257truckingvlogTv1 probably no choice at this point. Drivers don't wanna do it anymore and the stores don't have enough people to handle the deliveries. Stick with it if tbr change is soon and ask if they will grant the current drivers the same rates, I'm sure tbr new ones won't get 94 cents and $300 a trailer .
I’m starting dollar tree in a couple days and this got my nervous 😂
Dude, you might as well work food service if you're willing to run these loads.
Honestly I’m tryna get away from the laborious work if the pay is right I don’t mind doin it tho but I’m tryna find a company or account that works for me
I did this account in Berwick PA for Werner for a little bit more than 2 months and quit. To unload a 53 ft trailer alone takes no less than 10 hours, plus 6-7 hours driving for a 250 miles trip. Normally 4 stops. considering those shopping centers in north NJ,It's brutal for new drivers. For Saturday delivery, my manager seems alway did me a favor "take this delivery and go home for the weekend'. You are right, the last stop is 120 mile from where i live. Why don't you give me a load close to my house? All the time I was assigned 53 ft trailer and i was so jealous to see old drivers ran way with 28ft or even 16ft trailers,happily. When i quit, they 'forget ' my one unload paid,$260.I called in a couple times. They didn't say not going pay me, but i never got that money.
Honestly now it’s taking almost every hour you have on your clock to complete the load due to majority of the stores having little to no staff. Lately I’ve been having to unload and jump off the truck and help in the stock room because there’s no staff. To top it off the lack of loads plus when you do get a load your being killed with 3500 to 4500 pieces. There’s really no other accounts available in north east it’s all dollar stores and leaving the company is the only option but you don’t even know what your walking into over there. The trucking industry is bad right now in my opinion. But I agree they abuse the younger guys and give the older heads better loads. I can count on 1 hand how many times I had a light load it’s not much
@@hoodrich902How Are Your Liking It?I Am Possibly Thinking About This Account Or Dollar General Out Of Bethel.
@@asiatic_soldier5507 Dollar Tree is the easiest account IMO. Also you do not want small trailers those stores suck. Especially Jersey City DT. Small trailers pay less and you cant do a backhaul.

Hell nah that pay ain’t worth it.. You crazy bro! Much better jobs out there. US Express Family Dollar account pays 1700 guaranteed a week.
Why do you walk all the way around the truck to look at the door
Trucks were being broken into on the account so they wanted us to always make sure doors were secured
I don't care to run any loads for any company to small stores in insane locations without a loading dock, forklift or pallet jack. Much less a floor load that looks like Jr. High Schools students threw it in the trailer. I understand that you start out small but come on. I started out in rock buckets before going OTR and then moved to air freight and from there into production and lighting and exhibit logistics. If I wanted to handle freight I would work in a warehouse driving a fork. My CDL plainly says DRIVERS license, not lumper. Hands, you are giving away your blood and sweat for very little gain by lumping freight that you delivered without a loading dock or a forklift. But I am glad somebody wants to do it. I don't shop at Dollartree or Family Dollar or any of that. But be aware of how you are giving away your labor for very little and if you injure yourself unloading someone else's freight, what then ? I have found better treatment by driving for fleets with 200-250 power units than any mega-carrier. Get some experience and get the hell away from these companies. I spent just over 32 years on the road and it is not for everyone. And when I miss it, I watch some of these Werner and Schneider videos. Seriously hands, I thank you for what you do and don't sell yourself cheap. Please try to make it home for Christmas, they grow and are gone before you know it. Brothers of the highway, children of the wind.
I 100% agree with you definitely just learned a couple things from you
Bro, how you doing? Watching your videos. Thats crazy how they packed your trailers, no regards for drivers safety. I give you alot props for unloading a whole trailer. I think just for unloading, they should pay drivers at least $450. I applied with werner on a coca cola account, and they trying to dump my ass on a dollar tree account. I told them no. And the coke account is still open. You think of switching accounts? Stay safe out there my brother and thanks for everything you do out there
Bro I appreciate your support. I definitely agree with you the pay should be more but you know how most mega carriers are they line their pockets first and the drivers last with the crumbs. I’ve thought about switching but due to the area I live in it’s not much to pick from I have ran some Coca Cola loads stay tuned for those videos to drop actually my next video is a coke load. I’m pretty much running on whatever account they have I think they have issues with freight it’s not enough for everyone. But yea they looking to push everyone on them dollar accounts because it’s a revolving door for that account. Appreciate your support more content on the way!!!!
@@257truckingvlogTv1 i just think that they try there chances by telling drivers that Dollar tree account is the only account they have available, and they'll try to force someone to take it, knowing that they have many other accounts, and most drivers don't like touch freight, especially the Dollar tree accounts or dollar general. But stay safe out there bro
Pretty much cause when I applied they told me all they had in my area was dollar tree no other account was mentioned to me so I had no options to pick from. Honestly every account has its bs so you have to pick your posion
I'D TELL THEM IT'S NOT MY JOB TO BE LOOKING FOR EQUIPMENT THAT SHOULD ALREADY BE ON THE TRUCK. IT ALSO SHOULD BE AT LEAST 6FT ALOTTED FROM THE DOOR FOR YOUR EQUIPMENT TO FIT
Bro that’s why I make these videos tryna bring these things to light cause we suffering bad on the account. Hopefully tryna reach the right people to get some changes made. They over loading the trailers all kinds of craziness going on with the trailers smh it’s sad they getting away with this
I saw some guy doing the same I was like damn that’s a whole lot of boxes… meanwhile, I was unloading one of my stops wow😮💨 crazy
@trueblue03 yea unfortunately the work load is crazy for just 1 load. Big sea of boxes and pallets lol
I think I'd be looking for another job! SO glad i didnt go with them!😂
@kelli1970 yea I agree when I got hired by them they were only offering dollar store accounts that’s where they pretty much send everybody and see who last the longest. It’s honestly a revolving door on that account
Not sure what your pay is but I have 1 year experience and they told me they’ll start me at 80 cents per mile and 250$ per load out of San Antonio Texas
Getting 92 cents per mile 300 a load but barely had any work since January it’s been really bad getting like 1 to 2 loads a week and most the loads is over 4,000 pieces

Good luck out there man let me know how it goes. It will definitely get you in shape you will shred a few pounds in just a month alone
Yeah I feel your pain especially with gladhands Bushings. Who didn't say anything about? What? The condition That's on that trailer.. And the infamous ABS Light. And Some that have holes in the trailer. Or registration is about to expire.. There are some people that are doing their jobs and they're some people that aren't need to weed them out.. Because there's nothing where's the waiting for 2 hours to get your glad hands repaired? Because somebody didn't catch it when they drop it off.. But you did you got that waste 2 hours because they didn't catch it?. Or at least they can do is reported It doesn't take that much to report 2 extra minutes Would make a better? How come so when you know that it's trailer you're getting? Is the trailer you're getting in no surprises?
2 minutes to write a down in the note. There's a problem with the ABS there's problems with the gladhand air leaking. Brakes are stuck something. Is there retailer again guarantee you? A. DOT? Officer. Is going? To have. A Field day. With That. Because somebody do their job gets hes. Going? To Pay that ticket. Or Guess who is going to get in trouble?
For not doing their job for them. And lights to. Not the person that dropped off the trailer last. Not the person that dropped off the trailer last. That little bit of time adds up.
Wasted because of that person. And you know who you are. For those people that's a douchebag move.
I agree
How the Pay For new drivers ? Starting out how much can I start off making
I’m not sure what State your out of but it’s different at every Distribution center I know when I was first starting it was $300 to unload and .92 cents per mile. Other distribution center I hear was like $260 and .67 cents per mile. So just depending on where you live is the difference in pay. But also you need the miles to go with the pay so if you working a load with low miles it’s free labor for the company they are eating majority of the profit. Maybe you could make $1200 on the account it all depends on how many loads you do if they have any available
I might just go to Dollar General Company out in Indiana instead of them
@@257truckingvlogTv1I’m in Indiana
Ok I’m not sure if there’s a Dollar tree DC over there the closest to you I know is in Oklahoma I’m not sure if there’s one in Ohio but yea you could call Werner and get all the information about where’s your closest DC and make your decision I’m not 100% familiar with DG but it’s almost the same concept as far as unloading your using rolltainers and not roller racks like DT I’m not sure too much on the pay

92 cents per mile? We get 62 cents per mile
Yea it’s 92 cents a mile but we have been struggling to get loads since January of this year
how long did it take to unload all that?
5am till probably 6pm or so it’s been a long time since I did that load but usually 4 stops are a all day thing you definitely doing 12hrs
That account is hell bro
@bloodye1 bro it’s literally hell on wheels I wouldn’t wish it on no one not even my enemy deserves it
I did it for one year at us xpress
I bet any money they was on same bs like Werner
I did the dollar tree account for hogan out of SC and I don’t miss it
Bro I can’t even say you lying right now cause when I’m gone I’m going to say the same thing I don’t miss it
So u said u just make $500 something dollars for this load .how long will take u to do all 4 stops ?
It depends on the store and the staff sometimes could be a day or sometimes can be a day a piece of the next day. Dollar tree stops taking deliveries at 5pm so if you not finish before that you have to go into the next day to continue delivering
I’m considering this account with Werner in a few weeks. How do you make the 100k? They said $300 a truck so I’d need to unload a truck daily or so?
Honestly you would have to run everyday for the year to make 100k but the possibility of that happening is very slim giving the amount of drivers at the distribution center I know my location has 80 drivers so you getting like 2 loads a week be lucky if you get 3 loads. Not sure which location you will be running out of but pace yourself
@@257truckingvlogTv1 oh ok I’m considering the Northeastern Regional. When you say two loads that means two trucks right? 2-3 stores each truck and a truck takes a couple days to unload?
Yea 2 loads is 2 trucks. You will get anywhere from 3 to 5 stops all must be done in a day. I’d you fall behind meaning you need to be at your last store before 5pm or they won’t take you, they will reschedule the stop for the next day. North east region so you be up here with me most likely. Well when you start they will give you some light loads until you come off the probation after that you getting the big boys
@@257truckingvlogTv1 ok got it so 1 truck a day which is a few stops. I signed on for the end of the month orientation. Thank you

It can take up to 8 hours on one store huh?

@@257truckingvlogTv1 yeah but that’s too much work for me…all I’m gonna do is drive the truck bring the load to them and they can have it…🤣🤣drop and hook…I ain unloading sit! they think cdl stands for commercial driver lumper…hell naw it don’t…bro. you better look into LtL and get that money…old dominion,fedex freight,estes express,r&l carriers etc look into it that’s where the dollars at…2 years experience with your hazardous materials and doubles and triples…stop playing…you see them guys pulling doubles going down the road and ask them when you see um at the truck stop…120 thousand a year bro…
That’s facts bro unfortunately when I was getting my foot in the door at Werner they was only offer dollar accounts literally every one I was in orientation with ended up on a dollar account. It’s been all bad since I been here started recording the sh1t tryna bring change but honestly they need to revamp the whole account they don’t have enough staff to do touch freight at dollar tree most store have 2 people for the truck and what they paying us to do this bizarre caveman activity is not enough. Soon chuck a ✌🏾 to Werner and dollar tree
Not worth it
I agree!!!! Stay tuned for part 2
YO!!! That’s crazy, you got the rollers on the back of the truck, WOW!!! Yeah, you really are lazy
Congratulations 🎉 you won the slow Train award. Redeem your points by showing you can do better 👌🏾
I guess everyone who doesn’t leave their truck at the Distribution center and has a roller rack on the back of their truck to keep their rollers because they don’t hand out rollers everyday are lazy. You sound real smart there my guy
