[QUOTE="Trakker, post: 1987623, member: 61530"] You make an interesting point on the employees and collective bargaining. It's one of the reasons were looking for a better way to structure our growth and debating various corporate entities. Since this is mostly anonymous, I don't mind sharing that we pay our Ground / Home drivers $650/wk and offer supplementary insurance and 1 to 2 wks paid vacation. Our senior drivers/coordinators make $700/wk. We have the added advantage of being in a market where this wage is very competitive and turnover is minimal. So far, the numbers work, but there's always unexpected pitfalls. I've looked into other contracted carrier possibilities, but the margins didn't seem much better and the volume consistency was less stable. IMHO. [/QUOTE]
