I was offered $125,000 a year in the early 70s to drive in Alaska. That's starvation wages today.
Take as much nonperishable food as you can figure out how, or you'll spend all that big money right back out on cost of living.
I'd need to make double that to work in Alaska. I don't know but I've been told Eskimo 🐱 is mighty cold.
And no where to spend the cash, except expensive bars and restaurants. That’s a good thing!
Wouldn't consider it for less than 1 mil.
A hamburger is $30, and rent is $3000 a month. You can have it all boys and girls.
Since I'm originally from there my best advice is get up there around mid to late April so then you'll have the summer to transition for the weather. IF you have never driven in extreme weather. But once you get use to below zero it's a piece of cake. FYI up there we call them hit and run trees everywhere else call them moose 😁👍
So the jobs are worth 300k
I bet they are "hoping" to pay 120-150 wait till no one shows up for that money
120-150k$ isn't the big money anymore.
Ive done heavy haul on Alaska. It's no joke. You have to be on alert with everything. Not a place for lazy drivers. Lazy and irresponsible drivers will die up there.
I make that as an owner operator in Wisconsin hauling off the board
Don't believe the hype. Companies say they are going to pay crazy wages. Just to get drivers up here. What they don't tell you is they will work you 8 days and 80 hours rules. 20 hours on shift 15 hours driving. Sometimes chaining up 6 times a trip. They don't pay to chain up. Itis back breaking. Or stuck in Prudhoe for days during a blow. Inform yourselves.
Not a good deal. Cost of living is sky high. I can make that down here where the Cost Of Living is lower.
Good money. But expensive to live up there
Im 200k a year in the oilfield in North Dakota
tankers??? and how many log books do we need to run?????
did it for 3 months. money is good, but it's very difficult. 15 hour drives , you better be able to fix your own truck , chain up multiple times per shift, and constant shifting, etc
I’ll do it I was build for that life.
Not enough for me
The folks up there can probably cover all this work easily. You are being played. Stay home and keep your money in your pocket.
And every SOB up there is gonna have his hand out. No telling what operation cost is gonna be.
150k and 80 hours a week ?
There's jobs right in the states Like Walmart starts at $110,00 to start
You can make that in Texas and it's not that dangerous or bitter cold. I'll pass
Forgot to mention wolves and Grizzly Bears...hard pass
All true, I love truckin in the 907
Not really worth it. I drive in the oil field in OH,WV, & PA and make $95-100k/yr. Mon-Fri, home every night. Cost of living is stupidly low around here as well.
And that’s a whole different kind of trucking! That kind of big cold comes with big problems. Fuel freezing is only the tip of the iceberg.
Goodlack boys
My coworker nade 2400 last week and he's home every weekend. And he's in the midwest.
$150k in Alaska isn't worth it.
That's basically $14k more than in the lower 48 for alot of extra hassle.
Those workers in the oil fields are making $200k and sleep in shifts, but have company paid housing, food and medical.
More expensive than Canada
It would be 220-250 now days
$190-$220k would be better unless their giving per diem
Alaaahska
Total fairytale.... ask Sleepy Biden
The big problems driving dalton hwy is not highway driving.there here western canada trucking outfit haul oilfield supplies few venture on dalton hwy.the reason is truckers road period.i saw picture of dalton hwy 1980-90-20-and today is wreck ball yup.they driver left calgary alberta come back on plane coffin yes.most trucking few are direct to oilfield north alaska.i know guys teamters local 362 drove there when no work in pipeline western canada he when come south is a joke because alaska is rough and tough you must have top shape period if not is deadly he said.so beware young guys this is not hwy 3 edmonton-calgary this is like logging west coast period.good luck😊
only big box stores up here, Wal-Mart, Fred Meyer [Kroger] Costco, all a tad bit more expensive than their counterparts in the L48.
After you factor col u can stay warm and make more at sheetz lol
150K wouldn’t pay my heat bill.
That’s awesome ✝️🙏
Another Discovery, ICE ROAD TRUCKERS?🤔
Must have all ENDORSEMENTS when driving in Alaska it’s mostly hazmat tanker/ heavy haul/ an pulling double/triples,, hell when I was up there I seen drivers pulling a (53’ trailers with a 53’ flatbed connected to each other) like there hauling trailers an flatbeds at the same time 😮 crazy shit up there, like bro there hauling 3,000 barrel tanks not gallons barrels bro wtf
Thank you for sharing this video with the world 🌎🌍🌎🌍😊😊😊😊😊
Only cold in the winter but ut in a truck most ur time . Thee guys loading u , labors.... Not always but its warm or super hot in the summer
Maybe $200,000
I wish I could. But if this was real, I'd see no info
U can make 100-120 hauling long haul in the mainland…. I would hope running to Alaska and the other northern Canadian areas pays more than this.
120-150k really isnt that much
Drill baby drill!!!! A lot of truck drivers will not make good money because they aren’t serious. You be ready to work your ass off and be smart with your billing.
Imagine what the owner ops will be making. Might have to think about this 😂
will they hire first time drivers
more tax to paid , no way
Hell, id buy an old rig if it meant id make that
That’s good cause I was looking for trucking jobs in Alaska
I wouldn't mind it
Real Ice road trucker.😱😱😱😱🤨😤😤😤😤😤😤👍👍👍👍👍👍💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥
I'd run it
Here I come!
I would like to know about the opportunities for owner operators
Do they pay relocation. I have 7 years driving experience
Go! Git!
what to sell it overseas (oil)
Any recommendations for companies to look at.
"Cold as hell"? I don't think that's the definition of hell. 😂.
