How much do you want to take home a week/month.
Re: Hi all so really just wondering where the good money is now a days in Haulage, as I'm thinking about changing jobs.
If the night out money is included in that £55k that is a false representation.
Re: Hi all so really just wondering where the good money is now a days in Haulage, as I'm thinking about changing jobs.
If you deduct the night out cash from it then divide the working hours into you are possibly on crap wages for sixty hours.

Nothing pedantic about it, it is two different payments and using it as part of the pay structure gives a false figure which over the years employers have used to degrade the actual wages earned.beu+omedex wrote: ↑Thu Nov 02, 2023 3:09 pmhe still gets to spend it, so no need to be pedantic. we all know what nite out money is for.

I’ve found drainage the most profitable I get around the 40k basic
And the overtime rates are good was getting the same tramping in class 1 as I do for 10hrs a day and home almost every night and only have to drive class 2. Pay is dependent on experience but it’s an easy job tbh the truck loads/unloads it’s self you just set the pipes up

If you want to Earn better money travel outside Kent. Both Essex and Sussex are head and shoulders pay wise over Kent, just don’t go as far as Suffolk as the pay is dire up there.
Re: Hi all so really just wondering where the good money is now a days in Haulage, as I'm thinking about changing jobs.
It's interesting how the pay landscape varies across different regions – who would've thought Essex and Sussex would be the heavy hitters? Thanks for the tip on steering clear of Suffolk, too. Money talks, right?
