CHD: A Division of Prime Inc. All qualified solo company drivers can start at $0.34 - $0.38 per mile (based on previous driving experience) with the base pay going up to $0.42 per mile; teams start at $0.40 per mile split.  CHD pays for all authorized miles, both loaded and empty.  Company drivers at CHD receive a mileage rate increase based on the number of miles driven.  The mileage accumulates from the driver's first load (it is possible to get some credit for miles driven before driving for Prime), and of course includes all loaded and empty miles. So YOU determine how quickly you advance up the pay scale! What does this mean to you? Let's consider a starting team running an average of 6,000 miles per week and using an average of 6.5 MPG. Here's how the Team Driver mileage compensation would be broken down: Team Mileage Pay: .40¢ per mile x 6000 miles = $2400 in Driver Wages Team Bonus Mileage Pay: (see table above, 10¢ per mile for each mile in excess of 3500 miles) 10¢ per mile x 2500 miles = $250 Team Bonus MPG Fuel Bonus : (obtainable, 4¢ per mile at fuel consumption rate of 6.5 MPG) 4¢ per mile x 6000 miles = $240 Fuel Bonus Maintaining an average of 6000 miles per week and 6.5 MPG, a team would earn $151,320 per year! WEEKLY TOTAL: $2,910 (.48 ½ ¢ per mile) Additional Pay (Solo and Team) Drop Pay is paid per drop to the truck excluding the first pickup and last drop Layover Pay: Each driver is paid layover pay for each 24 hours after the first 24 hours Inspection Awards: When the tractor, trailer, and driver pass a roadside DOT with no deficiencies the driver is paid an inspection award.
