On the road

Loads pick up at a paper mill in Glens Falls. About 70% deliver to New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Mix of live unloads and preloaded trailers. Day shift, and you are off on the 6 company holidays. In winter you may need to chain up, and you will be shown how.

What new drivers ask most

• “Will I really be home every weekend?” Yes. You run Monday to Friday. Weekend work is voluntary.
• “What if there is no load for me?” You are paid $150 for that day.
