I'm currently getting my class 1 through a "log truck driver" program at CNC. I'm about 7 weeks out from completing the 6 month course. I'm currently doing some job searching and from what I can tell, it seems like 99% of outfits dont wont to hire anyone green. Do you have any advice for getting a first job hauling logs?
I would love to take that I'm just making 34 an hour right now and I'm driving a kingB 10 axle, you make 45$ with the hayrach man you a fortunate son😂👍🏽 drive safe always my friend
That’s because you aren’t putting the weight on, I drive a 9 axle and make considerably more because we are on a green route and can haul max weight. You get paid off of the tonnage you haul
@@corneliowallI'm Brazilian and I'm going to Canada in search of a job like this. I'm 42 years old and 30 of them have been dedicated to extracting and processing wood. Would you have any work there for me?
Is this a JL Custom hauling truck from Whitecourt? I think I have loaded a few of these last summer maybe.? Also are your hrs based off mill cycle time hrs or hrs actually worked
Spit it out buddy, I tried watching but never came to anything where you mentioned what a “logger” makes. Or are you just a truck driver? Truck drivers aren’t loggers.
They make any where from $35 an hour to $50 an hour The truck and trailer make $225-$265 an hour depending on the tuck and trailer configuration. He’s a tri quad I would guess he makes around $200 an hour for the whole unit and probably $40 an hour as a driver I drive a tri drive with super b trailers in the Edson Alberta area and I believe he’s in the fox creak white court area. But it also depends on how far the wood is from the sawmill because the sawmill pays the trucks on a cycle time basis
Northern MI. $20-25 for straight truck, $25-30 for self loader.
