Loaded Miles

[jaminjim]

So here we have a poll, are your loaded miles per day over the last six months less or more than this time last year? these are for days that you were available for loads. Please don't count days that you were home or days that the truck was broke down waiting for parts.

They are same

Mine are up - more than 30% - but I'm with a different carrier.

This is a great thread. I'm going to anchor it. Please VOTE!!!

For current year and year ago months when we were in service about the same percentage of time, our loaded miles are about the same.

I would have to say our mileage was down but the money was better!

since i have changed to a small carrier, my average all mile pay as well as my loaded miles have went up dramatically.in this case,smaller is better.

My revenue is up this year,but so is the fuel surcharge,not sure that is the difference though.When working,not been sitting very much,was sick in Jan,so working days were low,truck had problems in Feb,March,saved the quarter.April still looking good,even though not getting loaded for almost a week while out in California.Pays to run an E unit,much less competition

Loaded miles and pay both are up-changed carriers and back to Panther Elite away from small nlm/ltl carriers.Small can fool you for awhile but the bottom line will tell the truth or at least it has this last six months.
