I work for Melton great opportunity I’ve seen 23 states so far I’ve had my truck for 3 1/2 weeks been gone from the house two months they flew me out. I never looked back never been back.
@@TabbFromPhillyenjoy it don't enjoy it You got to make money some how so if that is the hustle you have chosen in the trucking industrie deal with it one load at a time now I do think that flat bed drivers should be load a little more but hey.
I am right now in Tulsa , Oklahoma for the training I am on day 4 I just found your video Best video ever , so accurate I was just laughing the whole time I wished I saw your videos earlier
For the backing maneuvers 45 degree & 90 degree I wasn’t taught that in trucking school do they give you time to practice/ train or do they just test you?
@@NoID_Seven I didn’t learn it either, they will show you quickly and you gotta soak it in quick. They will give you a few chances to learn. They will only send you home if you make a big error such as running a stop sign, red light, having drugs in your system, or fail the obstacle chorus etc. most people get through and once your with a trainer that’s when you can practice.
Yes unfortunately they have no problem sending people home if they make a bad mistake. One person ran a stop sign and went home, but minor mistakes aren’t going to get you sent home only big ones.
I’m gonna start making more videos soon, broke my camera 🤦🏽♂️. The drive home is nice, they pretty much find a load for you going near your home, then you dead head from there. Last time I only dead headed about 30 min, it’s different each time but they make sure to get you home on time. Also sometimes they get you home early with no penalties to your actual home time which is nice.
Hello, Thank you for the great content. Would you mind helping me with these questions? 1) Was the food they served onsite good? 2) Once you're done with the 8-day orientation, when you're training with your trainer, are you back to the hotel each night, or are you both overnight sleeping in the truck during the training? 3) Are the showers at the stops individual safe showers, or are they communal showers? 4) After all this and getting a truck, does Melton assist with on-site repairs if the truck breaks down while working?
Hey Mary sorry for the late reply. 1) food was onsite and it was good. I’m vegan and they catered to me specifically. 2) once your with a training it’s 21 days in the truck non stop, that’s the hard part. 3) showers at loves and pilot are nice and are private. With melton we get unlimited showers at loves and the bathrooms are always clean. 4) of a breakdown happened melton is quick to get a tow and get the truck repaired, and on breakdowns you get a hotel room 😊
@@michaelthomas7408 Yes I’m planning on joining them but I’m from Massachusetts. I have 10 years of dry Van experience but no flatbed experience but at the same time I don’t want to hang out with the trainer for 3 weeks. I wonder if they have short training period for experienced guys.
I’ve been talking with a recruiter as well I’ve been doing van for 6 years it’s just the 8 day orientation for experienced drivers no going with a trainer
Congratulations and that's exactly how I felt too! Soak everything up like a sponge and treat orientation like a 8 day job interview and you'll do great. I was new too and my best advice is for the driving portion, watch all signs, swing wide, and take it slow and you'll do fine. securement gets easier and when your with a trainer they will guide you as well. You got this!
You guys are so lucky in the United States, I wish we had something like this for New Truck drivers in Canada. There is shortage of Truck Drivers here and yet, there is no Entry-Level Opportunities.
@@royalmac1011 It's challenging here, as nothing comes easy despite the high demand for drivers. There is more red tape and regulation than there are businesses, and any money you make ends up going back to the government. Canada is not as entrepreneurial-friendly as the United States.
Tarping can be difficult but overall it gets easier. There are plenty of overweight people Tarping but I’m assuming it just takes a bit longer to do so. Hope I answered your question 😁
You all should send hime the Referral it is a very informative video a lot of information for free he could of been sleeping Mr Thomas chase that money my guy thanks 😊.
Is it easy to do ? Im new to flat bedding. Im not worrying about the driving or physical.part. I'm asking about the different ways of securing the loads.
Yes and No. it's easy to do when you get a traditional load such as lumber or air conditioners but I will say there are some loads that take a little more time to secure which can be exhausting. Overall the job is easy and the training teaches you a lot to be prepared for the road. To me the tarping is the most difficult part because whether it's raining, humid, windy, or snowing when the load requires a tarp that is when things can be difficult. Hope that helps!
Good video/information 👍 Question, when you get your truck assigned, is it 3 weeks minimum for OTR, or can you keep rolling for like 6 to 8 weeks out ⁉️...... 🚛🛣️ Cha Ching 💰.
@@michaelthomas7408I will bro! One question for you since you are the most recent video I've seen about Melton. The tarp lifting test. Do they care how you get it on the flatbed or do they just care that the tarp makes it on the flatbed "somehow"? I know a super easy way to do it but not sure if that method is allowed. The one where you use the drive tires of the tractor to "walk" it up to the top of the flatbed.
Hey bud since driving melton alone for the months after this video how has been the pay like? Also thanks. I attend school soon and video was very educational.
@@CRILLICD they pay varies a lot but I average about 1k-1.3k a week. Thanks for watching the video and good luck with your schooling! Melton is definitely worth it
I spoke to them today, I've already been driving step deck for almost a year local in Washington but want to try otr. I just dont know where I'm gonna park the truck for my time off. How do you figure the parking situation out? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
hi there, if your referring to parking at the end of each day it can a little stressful if you plan bad or if you have late night runs especially on the east coast but its overall manageable (trucker path has option that shows you how much parking is available at each gas station) . If you're referring to going home and finding parking then I've never had an issue, I live in California and I pay for parking (private truck parking) when at home and the company reimburses you back half. Hope that helps!
@@michaelthomas7408 super helpful! An yes I was referring to driving back home with the rig. I'll look up private semi parking and see if I can find anything near me
Excellent breakdown. I am looking at most likely going to melton after CDL training. Do you have the option of paying extra for your own room at the hotel? Also, can you take your own vehicle to drive to orientation?....that bus ride looks pretty sketchy....lol.
Hey! Planning on going to melton, also from CA. Where do they have you park for home time? Also I have a lot of stuff that goes in my truck, like my microwave,TV, Xbox , ect. Do they let you go home before you get your truck??
Hi, yup you definitely go home after you finish driver training. I have a ton of stuff myself and somehow it all fits 😂 so you should be just fine. For home time you need to find a private truck parking lot of you’ll have to park it at a Loves, pilot gas station near your house but private parking is much better. They also reimburse you half of the parking.
The Smith system is real. Ues it dont forget it. I've uesed it for 10 years to massive success. Not gonna lie and say I've never hit something. But uesing the Smith system while driving have never failed me. Been flatbed for 10 years now. Good luck!
Overall is about 3 loads a week, but sometimes it’s 2 depending on distance. Pay range seems to be around 1-1.5k a week. I hear people getting more but for me that’s about as much as I seen so far. I do have my TWIC, hazmat, and passport which puts you at the top of the load board so I’m never sitting long. Hope this helps you! ✌️
@@michaelthomas7408 thank you man! I’m currently out with my trainer rn and wanted to confirm! (I have xp in dry van, but requested to go with a trainer for more securement practice) appreciate the fast response!
I have orientation the 10th what all should i bring to be good cuz if all goes well I’ll be out 6+weeks initially at first , & u have any tips on what to bring n have to b prepared. Most likely getting a flight
Also when you’re out with your trainer will we be sleeping in motels ? Or in the truck for the three weeks ? I’m hoping motel lol if not hope my trainer don’t stink n snores loud asf
hey there, good luck on the upcoming orientation! List - ( sleeping bag, pillow, plenty of light clothes since its super hot, hat, all travel sized soaps, steel toed shoes, glasses, reflector vest and gloves, simply bring enough clothes to last you 4-5 days at a time and then do laundry at the gas station. also bring ear plugs for sure because my trainer snored.)
@@flackomacho3890 definitely going to be in the truck the whole time and that is the hardest part of the training. you don't know what kind of trainer you will get. hotel is only for orientation and only if the trainer takes a vacation or if the truck breaks down. I over packed a little knowing that after I finished training I would be on the road for a couple weeks.
Do they teach you how to do all the maneuvers again if you're a brand new driver that just graduated?.. I barely got past that stuff and I cheated because my instructor didn't care examiner didn't care lol
That’s a tough one, they give you a little wiggle room to make some errors but i have seen them send drivers home that were not good drivers. They teachers are patient and if you show progress they will give you a chance. Hope that helps
Cpm, plus $100 tarp pay, also hazard endorsement and a passport gets you +6 cpm when you get those loads and +16 when you get an oversized load. Cpm is .52 when your a brand new driver and experienced drivers get 58cpm if you have 6 months experience I believe. Hope that helps 👍
Were there any women during your orientation? Thinking about it but have to wait a few months if they do hair follicle. Flat bed seems a bit tough though 😅
There were no women in my class but there are a decent amount of women driving for melton given the industry. Flat bed is definitely tough but it’s pretty worth it. Good luck and can’t wait to see if you pursue melton!
To be honest if I was to average it out a week it’s about $1250. To clarify though, Im not pushing it hard at all and if I did I could get more loads and more money. I’m Still getting used to things and I have a dog so I tent to stop more often. I know others making more for sure as a new driver.
keep it safe and master your driving skills and develop your ethic and well liked personality, then apply for Walmart. I have been drving 15 years until I applied. Average NET 2700 for 2 weeks. 5 on 2 of. My last company in trucking world.@@michaelthomas7408
Currently they do the background/ drug test/ and work history before they consider flying you to orientation. From what I remember I did a phone interview first, then waiting to do my drug test. After successfully passing the drug test they coordinate the flight for orientation.
That’s a good question, they definitely checked mine but I would submit an application just to see anyways. They are always looking for drivers so it couldn’t hurt to try, but a concrete answer I don’t have. Hope that helps 😊
Wow! They cut the orientation to 8 days. When I was there 3 yrs ago, orientation was 3 weeks and 3 weeks with a trainer. I guess a 3 week orientation was to costly specially with a big class, my class was 62 people.
Wow 3 weeks orientation 😮😅, I believe they changed the two week orientation about a month before I started. I’m glad they did because I learned a lot quickly but the 3 weeks with my trainer was definitely the most beneficial for that really world experience. 62 is a big class 😂, I believe we had about 36. I love the job a lot though. Are you still with melton?
Bruh 3 weeks with a trainer....kill me...i did 4 months with schneider and was with my trainer for less than a week and only slept in the truck 2 times the rest was in the hotel... lol
In my class there was not but I have met a handful of women driving and I’ve also seen a few commenting on our Facebook group so there’s definitely some out there.
I work for Melton great opportunity I’ve seen 23 states so far I’ve had my truck for 3 1/2 weeks been gone from the house two months they flew me out. I never looked back never been back.
