The biggest issue I see over here is with the Box Team. They always trying to get you to move trailers around for free. We don’t get paid unless it’s over 50 miles. They always send you like 48 miles so they don’t have to pay you.
Guess I’ve gotten lucky so far. I’ve never moved a trailer yet. That is shady though.
Hell naw. I'd learn quick to ask how far it is and if it isn't 50 miles I ain't moving it
Lol right
A TONU is $150 pretty much across the board, everywhere.
Thank you so much. I feared taking on a lease purchase. I knew I couldn't remain w2... but I couldn't buy one using my credit either.
Ownership seemed to be an impossibility, as I was warned by other drivers the companies will never allow you to pay the lease off. The closer you get to paying the lease....the worse your loads become.
You cleared the air for me.
That’s definitely not the case. I completed a lease at prime also. So if you just work hard you’ll definitely be able to own a truck.
I completed a lease at US Xpress. I had people telling me it was a scam, and I would never pay it off. I did
They do air mile which is very different. Im still struggling with the load board and booking the most revenue to the truck but making the best of it so far.
Mmm that makes sense. I hate it personally. If you need help with the board lmk I can help you out and give you some tips.
You might not be a famous you tuber yet but I got to say you are a good one. It is crazy that they want to charge you 250 for something coming up and you can't get there but when they have issues they only pay 150 if I have that right? Anyway thanks for your channel I appreciate the time that you take to put out information for free.
Appreciate that boss. Yes that’s correct. Makes no sense. It should be equal at least.
This is by far the most helpful video I have seen about Schneider IC.
Thanks boss
Truth about schneider: very low pay, strict standards, awful treatment, and probably the worst big carrier out there
Sucks you had that experience boss.
Spot on
Not my experience
That’s some good advice I never used that board stuff I always has a dispatcher
It’s a lot different but I love it
Just subbed honesty is awesome
Appreciate that boss
thanks for the info..i just set up for sfi lease to scheinder...this info was very very helpful....stay safe
Glad I could help. Be safe out there.
I will add that on the tablet, it doesn't show you the empties at the location. It shows you all trailers at that location. They may not be empty
I notice that. That’s so true
Thanks so much for sharing ypur experience!
Great video
Thank you. 🙏🏽
What is your average net with out your truck payment being taken out
Your video’s really helped. I start my orientation Monday 🤞🏾
Glad I could help. If you have any questions lmk. Be safe 🙏🏽
@@LifeOfKO I will thanks 🙏🏾
How did it go?? I start next week, is shinerder a good company to work for??
@@tiarabtruckin how thing are going
Very smart choice youre moving in the right direction stay focused 👍
Thanks boss
Man I love booking with my authority I be preplanned two weeks out sometimes.
I do that sometimes if the loads make sense.
Respect. Thanks for the update.
Great video man I appreciate it I miss it. that app was great and I miss the truck I love the way it was specd I had a cascadia.
Thanks. Much appreciated. I love freights. I’ve mainly drove them.
Does Schneider require inward or outward facing cameras on the truck?
It’s outwards.basically a dash camera
So on a grading scale What grade would you give schneider
B+
Great video!
Thanks boss
Ok, i'mma give it rail with you.
I'm a person who graduated from truck. Driving school has been looking for a job has been asking questions.
About each company I'm in phone country. For the past 3 months maybe 4 and I wanna find out more about Snyder. But I do need a compressor to compressor, To relieve the stress in looking in to companies. That would accept a new driver without experience. I'm gonna watch a channel and hopefully. I'll get like good inspiration out of it.
Keep trucking And hopefully I will talk to you sooner or later
I think you have to have 6 months here but you can call and ask. My recruiter info is in the description below.
@@LifeOfKO Schneider about to hire me even calling me to check on me see how my cdl school is going which is good I told them my test date and there wanting to hire me straight out of cdl
@MileysDollHause oh nice. I guess it all depends. I’ve heard different things. They told me 6 months when I came but things change all the time these days lol. Good luck with the rest of your cdl school!
U killing it bro love the content
Thanks boss. Really appreciate that
I in a spot where I am thinking of not returning to where I worked at. Was told I have to go back to Tampa Medical DOT Center to change my DOT 2 year medical card to a 1 year card. This will be the 3rd time going to Tampa. This time, I am going to send them my travel pay, what I had to pay to get down from my city to Tampa, 40 miles. lol. I have a copy on my computer. If it don't work out between the same company and me, I'm walking away with a 2 year DOT Physical.
I do watch you alot, I am from Brooksville where they built the Newest Racetrac Truck stop off of SR 50. I am thinking, .....
Sheesh that’s crazy.
Good review
I spent 23 years at Schneider as a company TE. I have no issues with how I was treated, or how much I was paid. I was pushed to go IC, which I didn't, because I couldn't get the numbers to work. Seems the same today.
Most definitely. If not worse.
Thinking about making a move towards SFI & Schneider. I live in Massachusetts, you seriously think I can make it being home on the weekend? TIA
Other than the truck note,what alse does Schneider charge. Like insurance, ifta things like that
Insurance and plates
That’s a hard area to judge. We have loads that go there but idk how often. I’ve only been up there a handful of times
i want to own my truck but be a company w2 driver. like i want to spec my 2024 freightliner with the elite package, and all the extras. I hate how basic company trucks are
Yea I feel that man. It’s nice to have your own touch on things
Question,
Hey can an outsider O/O with my own truck already, go to schneider and say i would like to run for you and use your load board. will they allow you to do that or their load boards are only for those who lease with schneider.
Yes you can bring your own truck to Schneider and run off their load board. You can run power only if you have your own authority or you can bring your truck on and run under their authority
@@LifeOfKO Thanks Boss mang, do what you do and keep up the good work. 👍👍👍
Thanks bro. Be safe
@@LifeOfKOoh so you can run under a brand new authority on their load board with no problem?
@gabrielwelch6483 I doubt it can be new. I know at jb hunt you need a year with your own authority.
Can you run the truck how you want or you can only pull loads for Schneider?
Only Schneider I believe
You can run any company. It's your truck.
Not sure how he was asking. If he means can you use a Sfi truck anywhere then yes if he asking can you use it with multiple companies at once. No
@LifeOfKO yea true. Only 1 dot number on the truck I believe. But some people run illegal. Lol I'm on the IC with schneider and the load board looks terrible. Barely any good loads. Been on it for 3 years. This the worse I seen it
I know you said your leasing
But If you own your truck and lease on with Schneider would you know what payment owner ops have to pay and around how much
I believe you would just have to pay your insurances if your using their authority. Which is 205$ a week for me could be cheaper for you
@@LifeOfKO $205 for Insurence or for using their Authority?
I pay 205 for insurance and using their authority for the plates and stuff.
I’m deciding between KLLM or Schneider
When you get a second could you do a load board video of Hagerstown md please I just want to see what they got in my area and there rates please
Email me
Prime does a TONU. TRUCK ORDERED NOT USED. It's $250 . Schneider is horrible unless you are good with micro management. I made damn good money with Prime. Their FM situation can be shitty but fire him and get another. I miss Prime, I ain't gonna lie.
Mmm they both not bad. I don’t mind Schneider. I like having a load board better than a dispatcher. I was really cool with my dispatcher at prime so it wasn’t that bad for me.I also was on the load choice program at prime.
I thinking about switching over to Schenider how are the loads coming out of Illinois
Email me
Just emailed you
Never got it boss
Thanks for sharing. Preciate ya.
Anytime boss
I live in Cleveland OH I thinking about sfi lease I want to stay oh KY NY you know close to me maybe 4 state perimeter do think this would work well good video good honest man
Those are all good areas with the freight for sure. I go to Ohio a lot and Kentucky two of my favorite areas
Do they got good trucks ? I bet the first few months driving is just learning and going slow. I would want a newer automatic for sure
So far. I had one issue when I first got it that cost me a few down days but I’ve been good since.
To the person who made the video. When I started with them I lived in Jax,Fl. I did a circle. Out 10 home 3-4 if lazy. Take the crap load from savanna area to Ohio run the big money load from PA back to Jax. U must live there. Guessing. They use to not let you lease on unless north of i10
Nice. No I live in Tampa. I use to go to Jacksonville a lot when I first started
They offered me a job fresh out of CDL school said I could move to their tank training after 45 days idk tho they say that but might not allow it
Yea I’m not sure how that works here. I don’t see why it would be a hassle
I like dat hat!
I did IC in 2019, the fuel discount was the same way. Also was the load cancelations.
How much I can take home ofter expenses and how much a week for truck payment
Do they have the no headphone talking policy . Crazy strict as a company driver .
Yea they have that here
That 35% at Landstar hurts...i think you made the right choice.
Thanks bro
How much of a percentage does Schneider take?
@natcoziay1824 it’s the same as landstar. 35%
@@LifeOfKO oh OK. Its good yall don't have to deal with brokers. There is definitely double brokering going on at Landstar. Sometimes really tough to book a load. I like the point and click system Schneider has.
@natcoziay1824 definitely. I like that myself. Main reason I’m still here lol
I just heard knigh/swift is makings a aggressive bid to get schneider
Yea I read that before. Who knows. If it happens it happens.
bro i live in cincinnati and im thinking about doing the SFI lease and they told me 1100 for my fixed cost do you think i'll still be able to profit ?
Had a friend sign in and was out of business in 5 months. Save up and put a down payment to finance one
That’s what I always say but you can still make it with a lease
I'm in Orlando and thinking of going OO
With your own truck?
Thanks for your content. Are you a company driver or IC?
IC boss
For a beginner are you at-least guarantee 800 a week , thinking about starting this company but don’t wanna switch jobs if I don’t make more then I make now ?
It’s possibly. I’m sure you’ll make way more but it’s a lot of factors in that. Experience. Work ethic. Location. Trying to do company or owner op?
Hey bro do I have to do a medical with Schneider if my medical is just 6 mons old I still have 11/2 yr left on it.
I believe so. They made me do another one when I came here
Thanks for your video's they are helpful. I'm thinking about coming on but not sure how the loads are out west, what's your opinion on running from California to Texas and Midwest and staying busy enough to succeed?
Thanks boss. Personally I haven’t ran the west here. Farthest west I’ve gone is Texas and Oklahoma. I don’t see a lot that goes out to cali. It’s probably good loads but I know I’ve heard it’s hard to get out of that area. If you live over there you might be good. Email me your area and I’ll look it up for you.
I'd really appreciate that man I live in Arizona thank you!
No disrespect but 2k-3k bring home after expenses with fuel sfi truck very unlikely...just keeping it real for new ppl coming on, because I was bamboozled by you tuber numbers
That’s why I stated in the beginning this is my experience I can’t speak for anyone else. I also stated I have 8 years of driving experience and this not my first lease. I like to be transparent. I don’t want people coming out here and wasting time and money. What works for one might not work for the next. Appreciate you watching. Be safe driver 🙏🏽
@@LifeOfKO thanks boss same to you.
Ok you said you take 2000 to 3000 grand after your truck payment , you said truck payment 1500 hundred is that all your fixed cost added to that
Yes my total fixed cost is 1520 to be exact.
Is it overall worth it im 25 and trying to boss up so what advice would you give me I’m suppose to be leasing on with them in a week or 2
It’s worth it as long as you have a plan going into it. Money to be made but make sure you learn the lanes while’s your payments are free. Consistently is key
What drug test did they do ?
Hair follicle
😒😒😒
Are you making more since you’ve left Prime?
I would say more consistent money. I made good at prime as a trainer but solo my weeks where hit or miss.
15 years with schneider this is the worst i have ever seen if my truck was not paid for i may not be able to work here much longer i would not recomend ever buying a lease truck we used to have plenty of loads now we do not we used to have a few better paing loads they have all disapered
Does Schneider get loads out of Georgia Pacific inn palatka fl
Yes they do.
I was just asking because I was looking at the freight that you could get coming out of Florida instead of deadheading to Georgia I might be making a move soon thanks for info
@@andsalo1663 only problem is those loads are not consistent. I’ve taken loads from there when there available.
Do you have any information on power only somebody with there own authority ?
I’ve heard things about it but idk how factual it is.
Oo okay good things or bad things lol
One thing I heard is that they get paid less pulling for sni over the ic’s
Yes we as driver should always improve our knowledge about our jobs. But, exactly how much power do drivers have even within the trucking companies? None. So, if we have no power within the trucking industry and the trucking company executives have all the power, can we really expect the industry to function to driver's advantage and benefit? All the rules and regulations work to the benefit of trucking companies because they are the individuals who forced our government to make the laws in their favor against the interests of drivers. No one can make the argument that drivers are not working hard enough or studying hard enough because we drivers generate enough production and money to pay the ceo millions, the brokers $250k, the shippers millions and the dispatchers $250k year after year. If we as drivers cant purchase a home, feed our family, purchse a truck and are constantly worrying about expenses, WE ARE SLAVES and not professional working men.
Bottomline; every American trucker should be making $250k to $500k per year, any trucker with 5 years experience should be given a home of their choice anywhere in their hometown at a value of $500k, every driver should receive 45 days paid vacation every year, every driver gets free medical and dental insurance for a life, and every driver given the option of purchasing a new truck every year at half price.
In order to do this we must UNIONIZE with elections of truckers only in leadership. I know this is scary and frightening to some drivers but we know how much trucking companies value and respect our labor. This is why they con us into debt trap lease purchase programs because they dont want us to be empowered. If its hard to get your head above water while you are spending 30 days every month in a truck, that should be a clue and a warning.
US Navy Vet.
Any lease purchase program should be graded on how many drivers successfully completed and purchased their truck without financial difficulties. I doubt anyone can find that information for any of these trucking companies. Another clue.
all communist go f()ck yourselves
REPENT AND FOLLOW JESUS CHRIST BEFORE ITS TOO LATE 🔴JESUS CHRIST IS THE ONLY HOPE 🔴,
New Subscriber, are you still at Schneider? I have some questions for you if you are
Thank you. Yes I am
@@LifeOfKOWere you a Company driver with Schneider before being a Lease Operator and what was your average pay per week? I’m looking at coming to Schneider for my CDL training in Wilmer, Texas
@cwc8979 no sir. Never been a company driver at Schneider.
Do you stay out weeks at a time?
Nope. I’m home every week
Is this a free school company like cr england and swift?
That I’m not sure boss. I didn’t go through them.
Thank you for replying.... yeah imma talk to swift or cr england cuz I already got my permit..n I'm trying to see what company is hiring...cr england called but they said call them next month..n I'm just waiting on swift to check my background.
Do you get paid for d/h miles?
It’s included in the load when you book it. It shows rpm with and without dead head.
They used to charge 500.00 a recovery fee...
That’s crazy. We only get 150 when shit cancels though lol. Make it make sense
@@LifeOfKOnow what do you do with the load when someone cancels? Do you drive it back? Or just drop it off unhook and get a new trailer? I’m new to trucking so how does a cancellation work if you don’t mind me asking?
@stevo6891 I’ve never had a delivery cancel only a pickup so I’m not sure what would happen in that event. I would assume you would have to take it back to the shipper.
So you guys don’t get paid the miles for driving the dead miles? Most companies would at least pay you for driving to pick up an empty, getting loaded and dropping off.
They do if it’s over 50 miles. Chances are you’ll go 40 miles so they don’t got to pay you.
YOU DON'T DEAL WITH BROKERS AT LANDSTAR. YOU DEAL WITH AGENTS WHO ARE MIDDLE MEN BETWEEN YOU AND THE BROKER THEY'RE LIKE DISPATCHERS BUT YOU NEVER HAVE THE SAME ONE.
Ok ok. Understandable
On the company side, Schneider is the worst. They only pay 42 cents a mile. The NDF account is trash. If you go to Schneider get your 6 months experience and bounce.
That’s what I heard also.
So you're in the dry van division?
Yessir
Bro I agree with alot of your dislike with schneider
At least I’m not alone lol
@@LifeOfKO no bro not at all
Overall I don't believe schneider is bad at all...this is my 1st time I ever did O/O but you got to hustle and only the strong survive this thing the people who don't make it want to just breeze by I feel
One of my biggest struggle is the no split thing and the fact they won't allow me to go early PU/DEL
Why did you leave Prime ?
Wanted a company with a load board
@@LifeOfKO got ya
You still making 2000 grand after paying your weekly 1500 payment and be home every week...that's cap.
🤣🤣🤣 crazy people think I’m going to make up numbers. Watch the videos and do the math my boy. No need to lie when I post the numbers in the videos so you can see for yourself. I got my own truck now so obviously I had to be making the money to buy a truck.
I myself I think your at a good place
It’s been good to me so far. I’m good here.
When it comes to landstar, I think you stay were your at only because of the market being bad and I feel that brokers are trying to keep more money 💰 for there self, I’m at Crete carriers and I don’t do bad, had my own truck, still have 2 yrs before truck is paid for, we get paid by the mile and paid for empty miles, but no surcharge on miles. If you put it all together and how you get paid and how I get paid it all breaks down the same in the long run. Only difference is you have load board, I don’t, but I’m home weekly as well and they take really good care of there trailers at Crete.
@terryb5000 how much per mile? Is it empty and loaded the same pay per mile?
Dollar 1.25 a mile I’m only making $.40 a mile with Schneider Trucking . WTF😂
Sheesh lol
It’s pronounce mas.sa.Len Ohio
I’ll see if I get it right next time lol
@@LifeOfKO it’s all good. I’m from Cleveland so I know that Area
Oh nice. I’ll be there this week again lol
