I’m a driver with JB Hunt, but not intermodal. I am on the Corsicana Mattress account. I’m home on weekends and I make close to 90k a year. I make 69 cpm plus 30 dollars a stop and 65 dollars per load. Good week for me is $2500 gross.
Yeah this is actually good. JB Hunt intermodal guys struggle to make anything over 1500 in the Chicago area. There are myths of guys doing better but I believe there is some favoritism at play.
People are sleeping on jb hunt intermodal, there is really good money over here. I just worked that sixth day this past Saturday and my fleet manager offered an extra $200 to everyone willing to work.🤑🤑
@@americanlinks1924 it's definitely not an offer that comes around often...it's very rare and at the moment JB is only convincing their own drivers of having the best pay package. Best way to even make money at JB is with crosstowns or double downs. Say goodbye to regular trucking and good mileage pay.
I've been working with JB Hunt Intermodal for 3 weeks now I like it. I work the weekend wrap shift at night and it's not bad like I thought it would, it's actually cool that I don't deal with traffic for the majority of my shift lol. Dispatch is laid back and won't force shit on you and pay is pretty decent. Gross I'm making about $1450-1500 every week and that's really only driving 8-9 hrs a day, which to be isn't bad at all. I'm sure if I worked 12 hours a day, I could easily net $1500 a week. I know this video is old, but just my two cents.
I’m a heavy hauler for JB Hunt out of Salt Lake City. I drive either DRY or WET to Boise, Idaho. Start Monday and work through to Saturday morning. I have all day pretty much Saturday off Sunday off and Monday I go back in at 2:30 Pm. I do make it back to the Costco DC with like 12 minutes left on my clock so it’s close. I go home every day. I do 702 miles a day and my paycheck is around $2420 every week before taxes. 2,080$ after taxes. Can’t complain.
I use to work at jb I first started night shift weekend wrap. My first fleet manager was really cool. The no force dispatch was really nice becuase working at night could be hard on you specially if you get no sleep it takes a toll on you. You could make decent money there but you got to move all night not really sit around. Plus you gotta know where are all the empty's and know how to put expectations. And you be good I honestly when I started I was overwhelmed with so many information you need to know specially knowing all the rails but once you know everything it's really easy. Overall it's oright just gotta move your ass to make money here 14hours a day it's where it's at but will get burn specially at night. If you got a good dispatch and everything your golden. Just gotta put in work
I couldn't have said better. You have to give it 6 months and you'll know what your doing. It's hard work but I've had drivers tell me it's the easiest truck driving job they've ever had. The money is there to be had if your work hard and know your exceptions. Exceptions are so key to making a good pay check.
I’m at a train track stop and I see jb hunt containers like crazy and I was like they must be huge bc they have more boxes then amazon. So came to look up the company. Here I am now considering trucking.
I just got a job at JB hunt delivering batteries local , they say it averages 77k per year. That’s about 1500 per week. I’m not going to lie , I’m used to a little more , but it’ll do. My question is how honest were they when they told you how much you’d make ? Was it close to the amount you’re currently making ? Also , do they give raises ? And how are their benefits ?
Yeah, he's not doing bad...but he's definitely heavy on the drop hook side. It's actually supposed to be 75/25% drop/live. He should point out he's local...day cab. 4 loads...1 day? 9 drops in a row...I'd be quiet if I was him. He's getting a cushy schedule
I work for JBhunt .. and that's the best desition I made in my life.. love to work there I'm Dedicated local and may be later I'll move to OTR regional ..
$1500-$1700 55-70hrs i'll get 17grows if the stars align and nothing bad happens on the road after working 12 hours to 13hours a day plus i am out on the road not commuting. i rather work 6 days of the week and be home every day
The downside of working on performance pay. It is all determined by everyone else but you, emptys, loads, customers, and traffic. We could skip breaks and lunch and it will all be out of our hands. This is why I picked a hourly wage job. Jbhunt and other companies do this to avoid paying OT
Dude I'm doing otr and it sucks. It would be days that I won't drive because I'm waiting on dispatch. The other day I waited all day for a authorization code to get my trailer washed out to pick up a load.
So JB hunt is performance pay? What company would you recommend that would be local? I'm on my TNT phase with prime and have been thinking about leaving for JB hunt after 3 mo but I don't know... I'm trying to do my research on what I wanna do.
@@kiwi8476 Yeah I'm with them now. If you have a good manager you can get lots of money like I was in the beginning. They switched my manager to a new guy and he's screwing up my flow. It would take him hours to fix a screw up. Dude sent me 90 miles out to pick up a load that wasn't there like 4 times. He'll have you waiting thinking he making moves only to tell you to head back and pick up something else. That's four hours wasted in big cities. The miles are garbage when you are new so all those miles equal up to barely a load.
I went from making about $1300 a week with them to barely over $1000. They use to pay for empty moves but some jackass messed it up because if you only moving empties that day you get paid hourly plus the miles. This fool gonna move one empty and sit the rest of the hours. They went back and saw that he did it at least 3 times and now they don't pay to move empties anymore. The empties use to balance out the phantom loads they always give me but now I'm losing hella money with them. Today I sat at a shipper for 3 hours because they couldn't figure out what happened to the load I was suppose to pick up. Didn't even get paid for the wait because they canceled the load so detention time, nope.
i worked for jb hunt for 16 years. was kind of afraid if i went some place alls will be better. im glad i got out that dump, im making much better in my current job you just showing wonderland to the rockies so you can get an bonus. i know how its really like and its not worthed.
J.B. hunt is great, there are so many ways to make money at this place. They have a ton of accounts and a variety of schedules. I run on the Amazon account on a 25/5 schedule with two paid travel days. It pays better than most and let’s be honest.

I work with J.B. Hunt for 99cent stores man I’ve been wanting to switch over to intermodal sense I started. And it’s only been 3 weeks 😂 had to come in where I could for now. I dislike 99cent stores and I want to be local NOT regional
So I always wanted to work local home every night, but I have been working my owner ops I get paid 65 low pay or 70-75 cpm depending on who I work by, so I can make 7-8k maybe a lil more a month, I also choose my own schedule, basically if I do East cost let’s say gone 10-12 days home 3 days & again out 10-12 days, I get 10 days off or 2 weeks off home time, now if I want to work more I can take a week off only, but also if I work other routes I do some good time before I can take off that 1 or 2 week so idk I feel everything had a catch to it, if anyone changes their mind hit me up I can find you good pay jobs in Southern California
There's a lot to learn. I'm curious to know if you use the load board yourself. I feel like I've seen much bigger money on the JB Hunt loadboard, even for regional runs.
@@mytube95635 Hello, I saw a video here on youtube from J B Hunt drivers, that mentioned that in the next three to five years, J B Hunt will have around 150,000 containers.

Then driver mentor training, 90% of 64 cents mile + 23hr for everything in a 14hr day! And for every one here!!!! It's against the law to sign a contract! The government is paying them to train, heads up!!!
Cross town is...ingating at one railyard and taking out a chassis...or ingating and then going to a different railyard for pickup. The goal for dispatch is to have you deliver to the railyard, then pickup at that railyard to deliver elsewhere. Homie in this video is getting easy a$$ work lol
I got my cdl in January start of the year be early May I should be working with hunt I've been watching you since Christmas time before I went to cr england truck school which I just swapped from dg account to target and they have been terrible to me I want to get out as soon as I get that 3 month for hunt
I've had cr England drivers in AZ come to hunt and have never been so happy. They cr screwed them on their pay. When you have a driver tell you they want to retire a hunt driver it makes you proud to work there.
That's pretty good, I'm at schnieder right now trying to get about 6 more months of experience before i apply for jb hunt. I would take home around 1400 after taxes because of dependents.
@@jr5.o100 you only need 3 months of experience to work for jb hunt. Don't waste your time making chump change with Schneider, your time is too valuable . Get your 3 months in and bounce bro , you only need 3 for jb hunt and only 30 days for Werner, and werner you can make 75k a year after taxes in your first year ,or lowest 55k a year depends on what account you choose . Either way you can get into these 2 fairly easily with little experience.
@@Nph3979 well ok I work at J.B. hunt intermodal and there are loads that you can’t deliver and have to take it back. J.B. hunt pays for empty search yes, but J.B. hunts equipment is junk they don’t fix the trucks half the time. I’m not taking up for either one but worked at Schneider intermodal for six years and the pay is better at JB Hunt but the Health insurance is better at Schneider, the equipment is better at Schneider. JB Hunt has more intermodal work than Schneider, both are good companies. JB Hunt will give senior drivers new trucks every time they don’t want to deal with their current trucks problems and keep passing down the ones that have problems to drivers under them. Shift bids go by seniority so every year people above you steal your shift and you get what’s left when they get to you, so you may not have the shift you want. Just make sure when you make the move ask every question you can think of
Damn I just got my CDL with Swift, I am definitely gonna consider JB Hunt once I get me 3 months of experience. One question does JB Hunt offer Tuition Reimbursement?
@chynadoll77 cyn I'm in Georgia they sent a message across the peoplenet telling if we know someone that has finished school they are doing reimbursement if you drive with them for a year I been with them since 2012
@@benniahhah1783 Pay was garbage and home time was stressful. On a good week I made about $900. I would always end up missing my home time date because the only way to get me a load to PA was always from Texas. I remember one time they sent me from Texas to Georgia to get me back home. As soon as I dropped the load off they said they had nothing connecting so I had to go back to Texas to pick up again and it will take me to NY. Ended up running out of time as soon as I got there. When I got home my DM would keep calling asking what time I'll be back on the truck. My home time was basically spent trying to rush to have time with my kids and wife. To me it was not worth $900 especially with rent going up
I have a serious question I want to get into trucking mainly because of the money but I was wondering should I try getting my CDL with Jb hunt or Swift ? Another question will I be able to choose to work mornings or will they choose for me? (both companies) I heard swift doesn’t pay good but I heard jb hunt only wants like 3 months of experience so should I go to swift for 3 months then quit to work for Jb hunt ??? Sorry for all the questions but please get back to me! ALSO I’m in Ca so idk if pay is different or similar
@@Vitezbritva Yeah I was thinking about going through CRE instead I heard the pay is better because Swifts pay isn’t the best but I know you gotta start somewhere but say I called Jb hunt & they told me they pay like $1500 a week so do you get $900 after taxes or what ?? if you don’t mind me asking
Not exactly but You can pick what time you want to start when you get hired. When it comes to loads towards the end of your shift assuming you don’t want to do the next load because you’re running low on hours or want to call it a day the No force dispatch is awesome!
Damn I’ve been trying to get on with JB Hunt but they want three months recent verifiable experience which I do not have so unfortunately I can’t get on with them… And I also see they have positions out there where you need no experience but once again I don’t have any near me they say.
Dude go to any company that will take you and put in your 3 months then go work for them , or work for only 30 days and go to Werner you can make 75k a year after taxes in your first year. You got options out there. 30 days not a long time or if you want jb hunt do the quick 3 months at any company then hop over there. Get after it stop wasting time.

@@ant5224 dude, you should go to any school that gives you a job like crazy England or Schneider and work for 30 days then go to Werner . You only need 30 days experience for them and you can make 75k after taxes in your first year.
Where are you located? I got my cdl through a company called morning star they train you to get your cdl and you only have to commit for 3 months in return since it’s a seasonal job hauling tomatoes and you can make up to 2k a week
Where did you say you’re driving out of? Im out in the LA market and driving 256 miles and doing 4 stops in 9hrs is pretty much impossible considering all the traffic we face. For some reason our drivers like to say LA J.B. drivers get paid the most but from what I just watched that is definitely not the case if you’re making 350$ in 9hrs…
I was based off the South Gate terminal. I was Night Shift so maybe that’s why traffic wasn’t horrible. But just to make it clear it wasn’t $350 every day due to little things adding up like finding mtys more mty moves ect.
@@Dr3amTruckin yea bro once I applied for the account I started looming into videos & found yours & honestly I was going to do this account I was going to do the Amazon semi local account 90,000 but I prefer to be home
Ok put this out there bud I also work for jb intermodal and I usually make 1800 if I work a five day and 2000 if I work a 6th day now live loads are 50 add 40 to that if you do a reefer but drop and hooks are 30 each and if your moving empty trailers it’s 15 bucks each and we usually get paid 38 cents a mile
As a TM I at JBH i have drivers in Phoenix making 1900.00+ a week working the weekend wrap. Weekend is where you can 400.00 to nearly 500.00 a day if you put your exceptions in right. I've seen drivers work a 6th day and pull in a 2500.00 check for a week.

I’m new at J.B. how would learn more about exceptions I’m being told I’m only going to be making about $200 a day for 4 loads ? Any helpful tips on how to maximize my money I would appreciate it. Thank you
Did you receive the exceptions packet it has all of the exception types in there but the only true way to learn is while you’re actually doing it just think of it this way everything you do you should be getting paid for so after you complete a trip and you’re looking for an empty mark the time and start charging empty search if you’re moving equipment from one yard to another that’s another exception and these are important because exceptions are not automatic so if you don’t input them into the system you’re basically not getting paid for your work. For my area when I do 4 trips I tend to do around 300 maybe $350 depending on the mileage as well
Ive been working for jb hunt intermodel for 2 months now and i already had 2 years experience. I get 21 cents a mile and 20 bucks per drop. Absolute garbage. I was told this job averages 60k a year but i will be lucky to break 30k i fo 4 to 5 loads a day 350miles average and not even breaking a grand per week. Im already on my way out. I like your video and not trying to sound negative so dont get offended at my comment but just informing you not all locations are paying the same. Guys i talk to at the rail from stockton california say the same as me and they only get 33 cpm. I will say if jb hunt has the best dispatch and managers ive seen yet. If i dont want to do a load they will change it or cancel it. Or if i want the day off i can take it last minute off no worries.
Fowler california 33cpm 23dollars drops 35 dollars live loads 20 dollars detention or breakdowns 15 dollars empty moves. Traffic and shippers take too much time in cali. I can only make 190 a day in my 12 to 14 hour clock because of it. Which basically equals out to minimum wage. So why do this job for minimum wage when everyone else guarantees 20 or more per hour for similar work.
They actually let you choose what starting time you prefer. I asked to start at 4pm and they gave me it. Even tho I mostly go in at 3pm because i notice that’s a better time for me and it ends up working fine

Maybe I missed it but How much experience do you have behind you. Is this your first trucking job. Just looking to see if thats what I can expect as a brand new driver with them.
Exception are now called “activities” are inputted during your shift right after completing the “activity”. I will try to make a video breaking down the types of exemptions because it’s a big part of our day to day.

Most of the jb hunter drivers I know who work as company drivers make around $1100 per week after w2 tax, so what's the deal for you?
Uber drivers making more 🤣
Im going to be doing the same thing in Grand Rapids, Mi starting April 18!

I work with J.B. Hunt for 99cent stores man I’ve been wanting to switch over to intermodal sense I started. And it’s only been 3 weeks 😂 had to come in where I could for now. I dislike 99cent stores and I want to be local NOT regional
They offering a 6p to 6a shift and a 12p to 12 a shift ,,out of Memphis tn do they allow you to get to a morning shift soon after you start??
So I always wanted to work local home every night, but I have been working my owner ops I get paid 65 low pay or 70-75 cpm depending on who I work by, so I can make 7-8k maybe a lil more a month, I also choose my own schedule, basically if I do East cost let’s say gone 10-12 days home 3 days & again out 10-12 days, I get 10 days off or 2 weeks off home time, now if I want to work more I can take a week off only, but also if I work other routes I do some good time before I can take off that 1 or 2 week so idk I feel everything had a catch to it, if anyone changes their mind hit me up I can find you good pay jobs in Southern California
I get paid $450 a day ,only 10 hours, gross on w2 at a smaller company
There's a lot to learn. I'm curious to know if you use the load board yourself. I feel like I've seen much bigger money on the JB Hunt loadboard, even for regional runs.
Hello, keep working there, because in the next three to five years, J B Hunt will have almost 150,000 containers. You are going to be busy.
How u know that. And what location u mean cali
@@mytube95635 Hello, I saw a video here on youtube from J B Hunt drivers, that mentioned that in the next three to five years, J B Hunt will have around 150,000 containers.
Try yrc! Full cdl testing traing! I have every endorsements! Yes trained manual! Paid perdiam for meals, rental car, hotel! Plus 23hr! No contract! Then driver mentor training, 90% of 64 cents mile + 23hr for everything in a 14hr day! And for every one here!!!! It's against the law to sign a contract! The government is paying them to train, heads up!!!
What is a cross town & what is an empty search. Referencing the exceptions you were talking about .
Dont know about cross town yet, but empty search is when you look for empty containers/trailers, in a yard
Cross town is...ingating at one railyard and taking out a chassis...or ingating and then going to a different railyard for pickup. The goal for dispatch is to have you deliver to the railyard, then pickup at that railyard to deliver elsewhere. Homie in this video is getting easy a$$ work lol
I got my cdl in January start of the year be early May I should be working with hunt I've been watching you since Christmas time before I went to cr england truck school which I just swapped from dg account to target and they have been terrible to me I want to get out as soon as I get that 3 month for hunt
I've had cr England drivers in AZ come to hunt and have never been so happy. They cr screwed them on their pay. When you have a driver tell you they want to retire a hunt driver it makes you proud to work there.
@@mattblove2 I'm gonna be starting the 20th if everything goes smooth
I have a Operation Manager Trainee position coming up hopefully, and I'm excited.
Show gross money number and total on duty hrs for that time
I'm training in south gate yard Monday morning 6 🤙
How’s it going I just got my CDL today and spoke to a rep. How’s the training going? Worth it? Thanks.
Where do you live? I’m In San Bernardino your J.B. hunt drop and hook pay is more than mines
I’m from the South Gate terminal. I’m part of weekend wrap so drop and hooks are $43, lives $59 and 0.56cpm
That's pretty good, I'm at schnieder right now trying to get about 6 more months of experience before i apply for jb hunt. I would take home around 1400 after taxes because of dependents.
How’s Schneider so far? And man I got to start with the dependents I get taxed a lot :(
@@Dr3amTruckin it's good, but there isn't alot of money to be made there.
@@jr5.o100 you only need 3 months of experience to work for jb hunt. Don't waste your time making chump change with Schneider, your time is too valuable . Get your 3 months in and bounce bro , you only need 3 for jb hunt and only 30 days for Werner, and werner you can make 75k a year after taxes in your first year ,or lowest 55k a year depends on what account you choose . Either way you can get into these 2 fairly easily with little experience.
@@jr5.o100 what Schneider division are in?
@@Nph3979 well ok I work at J.B. hunt intermodal and there are loads that you can’t deliver and have to take it back. J.B. hunt pays for empty search yes, but J.B. hunts equipment is junk they don’t fix the trucks half the time. I’m not taking up for either one but worked at Schneider intermodal for six years and the pay is better at JB Hunt but the Health insurance is better at Schneider, the equipment is better at Schneider. JB Hunt has more intermodal work than Schneider, both are good companies. JB Hunt will give senior drivers new trucks every time they don’t want to deal with their current trucks problems and keep passing down the ones that have problems to drivers under them. Shift bids go by seniority so every year people above you steal your shift and you get what’s left when they get to you, so you may not have the shift you want. Just make sure when you make the move ask every question you can think of
Well damn now I know I'm underpaid lol sitting at around $1000-1100 for 45-55 hours a week. Net but seems to still come out less than JB
Any jb hunt in Sacramento?
That is my trucking dream job".....lol intermodel with jb hunt.
Just started watching your channel. Cool stuff and Informative Are you SoCal JBHUNT Los Angeles or San Bernardino .
Thx !
Yes I’m in the South Gate California. We typically deliver local or towards San Bernardino/perris area too
work them 2 days bro they make a difference
Damn I just got my CDL with Swift, I am definitely gonna consider JB Hunt once I get me 3 months of experience. One question does JB Hunt offer Tuition Reimbursement?
Yes they just started it
@@adriannereine4539 where you at what city
I just talk to someone yesterday from jb
@chynadoll77 cyn I'm in Georgia they sent a message across the peoplenet telling if we know someone that has finished school they are doing reimbursement if you drive with them for a year I been with them since 2012
Do you like swift ? How much do they pay you starting out for the first 3 mo ?
Pay period is from Sunday-Saturday
I been with J.B. Hunt Almost a Year now I came from CR England as well
Man I'm with C.R. England now and hate it. Been with them for almost 7 months and looking to switch to j.b.hunt. Do they do referrals?
@@R.O.T.C._SEEM
What do you hate about CR England?
@@benniahhah1783 Pay was garbage and home time was stressful. On a good week I made about $900. I would always end up missing my home time date because the only way to get me a load to PA was always from Texas. I remember one time they sent me from Texas to Georgia to get me back home. As soon as I dropped the load off they said they had nothing connecting so I had to go back to Texas to pick up again and it will take me to NY. Ended up running out of time as soon as I got there. When I got home my DM would keep calling asking what time I'll be back on the truck. My home time was basically spent trying to rush to have time with my kids and wife. To me it was not worth $900 especially with rent going up
Have you ever broke down what it comes out to hourly?
Estimateing,
I know there are so many factors,
Please and thank you,
20 hr. Max 8 hrs a day
I have a serious question I want to get into trucking mainly because of the money but I was wondering should I try getting my CDL with Jb hunt or Swift ? Another question will I be able to choose to work mornings or will they choose for me? (both companies) I heard swift doesn’t pay good but I heard jb hunt only wants like 3 months of experience so should I go to swift for 3 months then quit to work for Jb hunt ??? Sorry for all the questions but please get back to me! ALSO I’m in Ca so idk if pay is different or similar
@@Vitezbritva Yeah I was thinking about going through CRE instead I heard the pay is better because Swifts pay isn’t the best but I know you gotta start somewhere but say I called Jb hunt & they told me they pay like $1500 a week so do you get $900 after taxes or what ?? if you don’t mind me asking
You're basically saying you pick n choose your loads and schedule?
Not exactly but You can pick what time you want to start when you get hired. When it comes to loads towards the end of your shift assuming you don’t want to do the next load because you’re running low on hours or want to call it a day the No force dispatch is awesome!
Can you choose to be off on weekends? Or they give you your days off during the week?
They will give you days off on weekdays but after a month or so you can request working Monday to Friday just gotta wait a while.
Do you have your own Assigned Truck or is it Slip seating in your Area at JB Hunt?
I want to say most if not all are slip seating :/
Is that consider after taxes or before taxes ?
Does local jb hunt pay more than reginal jb hunt
How much you end up getting pay for Mile ? With drop and hook . Thanks !!
Damn I’ve been trying to get on with JB Hunt but they want three months recent verifiable experience which I do not have so unfortunately I can’t get on with them… And I also see they have positions out there where you need no experience but once again I don’t have any near me they say.
Dude go to any company that will take you and put in your 3 months then go work for them , or work for only 30 days and go to Werner you can make 75k a year after taxes in your first year. You got options out there. 30 days not a long time or if you want jb hunt do the quick 3 months at any company then hop over there. Get after it stop wasting time.
Lol 😂 thanks dude just what I needed, good motivation 👍
@@freddyfreddy42 hmm my bf was offered 6 week training for jb hunt out of Cdl school and then they said he can get the 3 month experience positions as long as he do the 6 weeks? I wonder if it only offered in select areas?
Damn he definitely got lucky, like I said my luck at the moment they didn’t have anything in my area like that.. I guess I’ll just keep looking.
@@freddyfreddy42 I would call again they said they just started the program and it’s expanding. Don’t give up if you don’t have to!
would you still recommend going to cr england for cdl school and then getting into jb or just pay for school and then try getting into jb?
Depends how fast you want to get CDL, CRE is efficient and have good teachers regarding the school. Any company you’ll start out about the same pay
Plus I believe most J.B. hunt positions you will need 3 months experience minimum. But I heard there are a few positions with 0 experience not 100% sure tho :/
@@Dr3amTruckin thanks dr3am love your vids super informative!!
@@ant5224 dude, you should go to any school that gives you a job like crazy England or Schneider and work for 30 days then go to Werner . You only need 30 days experience for them and you can make 75k after taxes in your first year.
Where are you located? I got my cdl through a company called morning star they train you to get your cdl and you only have to commit for 3 months in return since it’s a seasonal job hauling tomatoes and you can make up to 2k a week
Where did you say you’re driving out of? Im out in the LA market and driving 256 miles and doing 4 stops in 9hrs is pretty much impossible considering all the traffic we face. For some reason our drivers like to say LA J.B. drivers get paid the most but from what I just watched that is definitely not the case if you’re making 350$ in 9hrs…
I was based off the South Gate terminal. I was Night Shift so maybe that’s why traffic wasn’t horrible. But just to make it clear it wasn’t $350 every day due to little things adding up like finding mtys more mty moves ect.
Also was weekend wrap do the pay scale was slightly better than Monday thru Friday
Due they have day rates ? U day shift ? What's the best terminal ?
I seen intermodal contract for jb hunt and they say projected earnings is up to 130k a year. Is this true ?
@Miss BellJr I seen the projected earnings and it said local
@Miss BellJr dedicated local”
Can anyone give insight about if the regional Dedicated pay is legit
What pays the most local dedicated regional otr ??
live loads are 70$ here in nj reg drops are 50$
Man those are good rates i dont know how the traffic over there is but if LA had less traffic it would be awesome!
@@Dr3amTruckin traffic is horrible. But we get 50$ congestion for going to CT and 75$ for going to any of the 5 boroughs in NY

Ok put this out there bud I also work for jb intermodal and I usually make 1800 if I work a five day and 2000 if I work a 6th day now live loads are 50 add 40 to that if you do a reefer but drop and hooks are 30 each and if your moving empty trailers it’s 15 bucks each and we usually get paid 38 cents a mile
As a TM I at JBH i have drivers in Phoenix making 1900.00+ a week working the weekend wrap. Weekend is where you can 400.00 to nearly 500.00 a day if you put your exceptions in right. I've seen drivers work a 6th day and pull in a 2500.00 check for a week.

@@Freedomtrucking1776 lol what’s up neighbor, I’m from Buffalo, NY. I do flatbed with TMC and looking into this local intermodal with JB Hunt, not quite sure since the shift is starting at 1900 and I’m more of a morning person.
I’m new at J.B. how would learn more about exceptions I’m being told I’m only going to be making about $200 a day for 4 loads ? Any helpful tips on how to maximize my money I would appreciate it. Thank you
Did you receive the exceptions packet it has all of the exception types in there but the only true way to learn is while you’re actually doing it just think of it this way everything you do you should be getting paid for so after you complete a trip and you’re looking for an empty mark the time and start charging empty search if you’re moving equipment from one yard to another that’s another exception and these are important because exceptions are not automatic so if you don’t input them into the system you’re basically not getting paid for your work. For my area when I do 4 trips I tend to do around 300 maybe $350 depending on the mileage as well
Does any one know of any good places that would hire you with 3 red-light tickets recently.
I've just talk to a recruiter he says he doesn't have open regional positions like wtf
Is it hair Focile drug test and how long does it go back if they do
Yes they do follicle testing. It takes a couple days
I’ve gotten my CDL permit and have class in September. Once completed, how hard would it be to join JB hunt?
I imagine it shouldn't be that difficult considering they hire ppl without Cdls. It'll probably do the company a favor
it would be hard to not join
Ive been working for jb hunt intermodel for 2 months now and i already had 2 years experience. I get 21 cents a mile and 20 bucks per drop. Absolute garbage. I was told this job averages 60k a year but i will be lucky to break 30k i fo 4 to 5 loads a day 350miles average and not even breaking a grand per week. Im already on my way out. I like your video and not trying to sound negative so dont get offended at my comment but just informing you not all locations are paying the same. Guys i talk to at the rail from stockton california say the same as me and they only get 33 cpm. I will say if jb hunt has the best dispatch and managers ive seen yet. If i dont want to do a load they will change it or cancel it. Or if i want the day off i can take it last minute off no worries.
You are right about that I would like to know what region you are working Massachusetts is paying 41 cents mile to start
Fowler california 33cpm 23dollars drops 35 dollars live loads 20 dollars detention or breakdowns 15 dollars empty moves. Traffic and shippers take too much time in cali. I can only make 190 a day in my 12 to 14 hour clock because of it. Which basically equals out to minimum wage. So why do this job for minimum wage when everyone else guarantees 20 or more per hour for similar work.
