any info on schneider owner operator jobs

well, just briefly.......
65% of the load with their trailers
The load as posted is what it pays, all in fuel and everything (no need to do a bunch of math)
Probably 80-90% D/H
Insurance all in (bobtail, WC, collision, cargo), is $135 a week (does not include personal health insurance)
They do have private health insurance available.
Lots of freight, particularly in the Midwest
Quarterly statements that break everything out.....makes it easy for your CPA (I'll see if I can find an example)
No hand holding, no forced dispatch. You pick your load and you're expected to deliver on time. No muss, no fuss, no BS.
No charge for Q com, you pay for pre pass ($15 I think) and tolls
decent fuel discounts.....varies and changes every 2 week.....Worst .05, best around .60
Mostly good equipment.....really no problems at all (unless previous driver curbed one out)
Truck has to be inspected very 90 days....they pay
You'll need a sliding 5th wheel......you'll not use it, but you gotta have it

Overall, my experience with the Schneider Choice program was positive.......honestly, I can't think of a negative thing to say. Gross was between $160k and $190k.......net around $100 before taxes. Pretty nice folks to work with as well. Never had a threat or an ugly thing said to me.

Thats all I got. Good luck

 

They don’t pay any tolls for new hires just pay for the grandfathered guys…..

Mt trailer search’s can suck…. And load cancellations can be a drag , they’ll take the load back if a company guy needs it. And leave you to find something else…..

 

I did the "All In" and there wasn't any difference between the 2 aside from there being more freight.
Mostly contracted freight, Home Depot, Walmart, Target, etc....It's ALL self dispatch....ALL self dispatch
If you chose to join, I suggest going to a truck junk yard for your 5th wheel (it's what I did). $1500 installed.
I never heard about 'advancing funds'......I had my own CC with a pretty decent limit, so it wasn't a problem. That said, I think the answer is No.

To @Cat sdp.......
When I left a year ago, ALL contractors paid tolls. They let it slide for a year, but when the contract came out in 2021, everybody had to pay.
As far as them pulling freight for company drivers, I never saw it. I suspected it a couple of times and I called the shipper only to find out the load had been cancelled like Schneider said. One time I actually went to the place (because I was headed that way anyway.....and sure enough, it had been cancelled).

 

Also, they file your IFTA for you as well.

If you do decide to join and you need help or advise, please don't hesitate to contact me.

I did it for 8 years, and decided that I'd rather be at home.

First tip, Don't go unless you know how you're going to get out.

 

I'm sorry that Schneider is an "unfortunate" choice. Perhaps there is a more 'fortunate' choice.

Good luck
