Need more Drivers for crude oil tankers in North Dakota

Daniel Boondocker · Nov 23, 2011

Asked permission to post here
Update.
I'm not looking for more trucks of my own requiring more drivers at this point. For now we are mostly reconditioning triple axle tanker trailers for fertilizer, fresh water, and crude oil, then selling them. Also a couple of body tank trucks with pup trailers. Hauling oil in North Dakota is more ideally suited to experienced O/O's who are on sight and in the truck than it is to anyone else. They also make the most money. Especially if you have tanker experience.

They said houseing but goodluck with that. At least your from the north where you know how to drive in the stuff. That town is crazy.

Housing is difficult and very expensive out there, that is if you can find it.

wish my company would set up a shop there!!! we would make a mint on truck repairs...i hear DOT is looking at having a hayday real soon with most of the non legal trucks around the area.

Daniel Boondocker · Dec 1, 2011

We have spent a lot of time and money making sure we are legal before we send the trucks up there. And yes you have to have experience driving in the snow and ice. It makes a big difference. I'm so used to it I didn't even think about posting it. I've lived here all my life and driven often in extreme conditions. In the south they shut things down when they get just a little bit of snow. Here we have the tires for it. In the south they don't. They make the biggest difference next to the drivers experience and capacity for it.

How are u able to work more than 60hrs in a week driving ?

mtbroncrider · Dec 2, 2011

by using the reset option...60 hours in 7 days, or 70 hours in 8......34 hour restart starts the clock right back over...you can burn thru 70 hours in 5 days
14 hours duty day, 11 of which can be driving time, 3 for loading/unloading/PTI/TLC/fuel ect...followed by 10 hours off duty

I'm not gonna go into the split berth or 16 exception

supposedly via the DOT you can theoreticaly work 107 hours in a week

I've never done that, but i've had plenty of weeks close to 100 when i was running my own

Would you be interested in hiring a guy for the summer time I know that is a ways away but just curious.

Daniel Boondocker · Dec 7, 2011

Yes. Very much so. Thanks for asking. For example I need a driver for another business in Eastern Idaho from march to september, and on an occasional basis after that. For instance I have 3 loads going to So. Cal right now and need a couple for Texas soon. If you want to make more by being in ND, I'm sure one of them would prefer being here for part of the year. One of my other drivers may also need to be back here in the summer for another reason.

Getting very close to having enough drivers. May have them covered already. Thanks for everyones tolerance for the post here on the forum and for those who showed interest.

I got a buddy that is interested for sure. He wants to be in north Dakota. U still in need of a Guy?

turbopwr05 · Dec 8, 2011

I drive through Belfield every tuesday morning. And that truck stop is crazy you can't even park some times. what is your trucking company I probally have seen you guys we are in a red mile hi truck.

suitcase · Dec 8, 2011

Nice to see this thread on here. the money is good in the oil bizz. whether it is in that end, or my end, (Main Line). I love to see these booms, and those areas get huge. We did it about 5 yrs ago in rocksprings, That was Gas.

Daniel Boondocker · Dec 8, 2011

If anyone is still interested, yes please get ahold of me on my email from the first post. The slots are not filled until the drivers make their final commitment. Still have a couple that are just verbal. I'm just getting started in the oil bus. Hope it works out for a while. The time, commitment, and expense of getting in is insane. Should be sending the first truck up in the next week or so.

YES!!! Absolutely. Thanks for asking. I'm not looking for more trucks of my own requiring more drivers at this point.
