I highly recommend all you drivers out there to get your own authority as soon as possible and if you have the knowledge and smarts to go after your own customers then do it. That's where the real money is.

I work security at the gates going into the locations. I've seen high wait times like you're saying. Seen some wait up to 13 hours to drop their load. I've worked in other locations and seen some run 8 to 10 loads a day. In and out all day, running those trucks almost 24 hours before they take a break. Like you said, depends on how far they have to drive to pick up their load and if anything on location breaks or goes down.

Great informative video. Short and concise

24 year old here every endorsement 7 years clean. No restrictions. I need that big boy money surprise twins have arrived.

Good show very informative thanks

Great video 💪🏾

Sounds like a great job for an older but not elderly person as well.

Thanks for the video very informative, looking forward to move there to work hauling sand, by the way new to your channel, i just subscribe bro.

Great info I’m in Tallahassee Florida looking to move to Odessa to drive sand trucks

Great information on frac sand hauling. Is there chatter in oilfield about oil prices/recession/oilfield slowdown? (Maybe this could be a video idea). What happens if oil prices keep sliding down ($67 as I write this)? What are the first signs or layoffs in oilfield? Do water haulers have to worry? Will your producing wells that you service slow down or be shut down? Have you been through an oilfield slump? Btw, I start my "first day" this afternoon at a big agricultural coop and using my new CDL. Thanks for doing these videos, keep up the good work!

Hola werita loco, thanks for sharing b safe BLESSINGS!

Great 👍 video bro 😎

Ya forget to mention.... driving any time... all the time with no schedule. I always got bumped to night runs. Sleep during hot ass days, trying to find a parking spot and showers maybe once a week! Maybe the best.... Sleep on a 4 inch thick, smashed down chunk of foam? The good life.... not!

Ok folks new to Texas , looking to get into this gig CDL A tanker endorsement , new to the game .San Antonio need help

Nice video, I got all endorsements, no restrictions on Lic. , have 11m experience in Foodservice, I'm located in NC, where to apply for 3weeek on ? Thx Robert

What have you heard about FilaMar? I’m an owner operator and just got all my certifications done. FilaMar is saying all the right stuff. But seems too good to be true. Hauling Sand Boxes out of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.

Informative video thanks

Frac money was good 5yrs ago best money I’ve ever made as a company driver. Haliburton drove the rates down. Pioneer was good, Odessa/midland is overcrowded

Do you ever see guys in day cabs hauling sand ? Thanks

Not sure you did or not let these owner operators know the dirt roads ain't no joke,,,they can be bad and tare up the truck easy,,,can get very expensive and long waits to get truck fixed as well...pray you don't ever need a tow off the lease roads either...i been out their a few times,,fell into a huge pot hole with a freightliner classic and busted oil pan on a cat motor, expensive...

I saw this. Came here to read comments to see if they bashed field engineers, QCs, sand pushers, or dispatchers 😂

Hello What companies are hiring right now in Carlsbad ? Can you provide a website I’ll appreciate if you can do that Thank you

Do you know if any of these companies will help out of state drivers find housing?

Wait.... so instead of waiting around, couldn't I be a helping hand to reduce that waiting time? If it means getting an extra load or two in each day on top of the usual, more profit in my pocket is what I'm looking for.

Easy to learn? Thinking about going to nd

What LOADBOARD do you use to find this kind of load

I’m waiting on a well right now to get my box offloaded lol. The pay is a lot more than you are saying if you are owner operator.

you didn't mention the best part of the job. using the portapotty! minus 5 pts 😋

Hey man I was working in ND for an owner operator didn’t go well. I’m back home in Texas thinking about just driving up to West Texas and do walk in plus there’s a job fair. My question is do you think it’s a good time for that cuz I keep hearing about stuff slowing down all over the place

I hauled sand in Louisiana with my own hopper and then hauling the boxes in Louisiana and South/East Texas. My truck is pre ELD so I ran 24/7. Basically every 8 hrs i would nap 4-5 and then back on it. You pick somewhere for your "home" place and run time sheets. The ELD guys would cry but I was there to make money, not friends. It went really good until brokers brought in more trucks. 20 trucks can get along together but 45 meant dipshits throwing trash, parking where their not supposed etc. You have to remember, there is money to be made so companies with alot of trucks will throw anybody in a truck. One truck in Louisiana got busted for ALOT of drugs. Three in texas got busted for smuggling people. The lease roads in Texas will break your truck at 10 mph. Oil pans, leaf springs, tires/rims, bumpers, are usually the victims. East Texas is REALLY expensive for owner operators. Front wheel bearing went out. The cheapest was quoted at $17,000 and you usually do both at the same time so it jumped to $25,000.00. I hauled it back home to Minnesota and paid my mechanic $14,000.00. So be carefull. Good money brings the scams, thieves, and anything else to mess, rob, steal, and screw you out of that money. there's fights, saw one guy beat another with his hard hat (that's why my hard hat has a blood splatter design). Now I haul water for wind tower projects. More money, hourly wage with 2 two trucks.

How much is the pay if you're an owner operator. I was a roughneck for 2 years. And always was jealous of the truckers making more then me and not even breaking their backs. Im about to go to school and get my class a cdl. But eventually i want to gain some experiance then work on getting my own truck and start hauling frac sand

How do i get in .i have no CDL..is there any company train new drivers??

What company to get on with to haul water in Shreveport la

Hey I live in Florida Tampa and I just graduated and deep in debt and I'm trying to get out the hole fast and I got my CDL from 160 driving academy 2 weeks ago. What do you think I should and where I should go. I want to make the big bucks and I don't give a shit what I have to do. But I don't have my hazmat or any endorsement on my license yet and I don't drive manual stick shift yet I only drive automatic

I’m a new CDL driver, been OTR Reefer for about 6 months. I want to become an owner operator but I have no clue the Ins and Outs of being one. I know there’s endless opportunities tho such as HAULING FRAC SAND. And of course much better pay. Would love to learn more !

Is the oilfield picking back up? I drove sand in 2021 and fuel in 2022 minutes n that Midland/Odessa area . When I was there it was slow

Back 5 years ago it was paying way more than you said, the pneumatic guys were getting the the best pay then the sand boxes came out the rates dropped due to they easiness of them. Then Trump gout out of office it went to hell in a hand basket with the oil field stuff from the guys I know.

Sir can you give the link that hire new Class A driver please

Were do I sign up?

I just got hired to do sand box in big Springs did one load and then my truck broke down now I'm back in Houston

Would like to get started in hauling frac sand. Have 15 months experience. All endorsements but have an automatic restriction. Any company would hire someone with a restriction? Thanks

If You were to go back to frac sand hauling, who would you like to work for? Are there companies that are (word of mouth) better than the rest?

Do you usually go A to B and repeat . How does that usually work. Thanks

Can someone recommend a company? Im out here right now and its sad.

Anybody know any good info on Detmar logistics in midland Texas? Got offered the job and wanting to know how it is over their

I am hauling containers up here in the Seattle area and I have heard that some sand frac owner operators can make 10k a week. Do you know if this is true or is it just hearsay?

im currentl;y making a career switch from restaurant buisness to oilfeild. My current contract is over in may just tryniogn to get in a enrty level job

Hello Are any of the trucks automatic or all manual? I have a restriction Trying to get it off..

What’s a good water hauling company to get on with I’d rather stay in the truck and be by myself

Do the company you work for have man camps

What type of certification is required to be on the pad? I'm an O/O looking to lease on and Ive been told PEC, PEC with H2S, or Safeland and maybe need CPR, but nobody says EXACTLY whats needed or if there is a specific type. The site I was told to go on has 7 different types of cert classes, so still a little confused on that part.

Makes sense to why all the dry van drivers are running to the oilfield

Idk if you can help me out man. I have my own authority and I'm interested switching over to hauling sand. Do you happen to know any companies I can be set up as a carrier.

So all 3 methods pay the same

Make money sending me some fracking sand, seriously for 3 years now I just wanted a few kilos of fracking sand here in Australia and I can't get it

Hi! I am a new CDL driver with no experience can I work hauling frac sand as an owner operator I wish to work with someone for free to get training

Do they take in new cdl holders?

Is this hard on the truck? Is the terrain tuff ?

Do I have to relocate im in las vegas have all my endorsements? How long are you in the oil fields? And what's the pay like ?

Question, how much do o/o make out there?

What's the name of your company ?

You’re a water hauler. How would you know about Frack Sand Hauling… if drivers like 50-70 hours of unpaid detention time while not sleeping. It’s the perfect job for the drivers hell bent on going bankrupt.

Frac sand in vernal utah pays $10k a week

Are you home every day or how often?

Craigslist, LinkedIn, Facebook, any job posting sites

I’m Automatic restricted is that a problem?

Who is hiring I’m looking to get apply somewhere

Thanks for the info. Are the truck manual transmission? I gave automatic restriction.

Do you need to be a owner operator?

How much is an owner operator makes a week

No, thank you. I will keep re-watching your water videos😅

Curious why are you talking about frac Sand But you’re hauling water

Some people talk about 5,7 and 8 thousands dollar🤣

Anybody frac sand companies hiring for drivers? Looking to be a company driver

Where do i apply lol

How do I get on with one of these companies

They want u to run 2 logs....no thanks. I will stay with tankers.

thanks for the video brother, i have the 2+ year class A driving, i've been offered a frac sand hauling job, in sand box, is it worth it ? this one is also 120 mile trips, it looks like a lot of waiting and little driving, i ask because i just got my tanker and hazmat endorsement, so i'm between sand and hazmat hauling, any suggestions i would really appreciate it, thank you.

I drive for Walmart 😂 😢

And yet we make just as much as you do. Js.

Where arevthey hiring. I'm looking for work

130 per load, 2-3 loads per day. Driver makes $2000, something don’t add up on rates per load.

If Trump becomes president again, oil field jobs should pick up again. He should ease up restrictions on domestic production like last time.

Please clip the zip ties on your mirror 😏😏

You won’t be making much money when the market gets packed with people from this videos.

Boring

Are their different HOS rules in TX oil fields, or y’all just run outlaw?
