DFW Express Delivery Services DFW Express DFW Express - Not Enough Money For Wearing Down Your Vehicle Grand Prairie Texas

Like the first guy said, they advertise for 900 - 1300 a week to hook you. When you go apply, they tell you you'll make $25 per delivery, which is SUPPOSEDLY 60%. Total BS. You can go to their site, look at the rates they charge and SEE that their prices vary, from about $15 - $28 depending whether the client chooses economy, express, direct, or standard delivery. It also depends on the city they come from and where they go.

So technically they give you 60% of whatever it is they charge, NOT $25 per delivery, which is bad considering they prefer to hire truck drivers with bad gas mileage....  I worked ONE day, drove around 200 miles (about $40 in gas), I made 9 deliveries and I only stopped once for a restroom break, which was a record for a first timer. I didn't even stop to eat.. They told me I did GREAT! But I only made $152 ....That minus $40 in gas = $112 a day IF you give it your all....

Is that really worth it? I think not. 200 x 5 (Miles x work days)  = 1000k miles a week... 4000k a month. That means oil changes and in the long run, it means $100s in repairs. If they think all they need to do is cover for gas, they're crazy! The way the dispatchers talk to you isn't pleasing either, They're pretty rude when all they do is use you.

Also, I had to deliver a 400lb pallet and they made me do it so late in the day that the drop off location was closed. I had to drive 40 min just to have to drive 40 min again to drop it back where it came from. They said my 60% went up for my trouble... and that because the load was big I'd get extra for that as well. Still made 152 the whole day...112 after gas.

I'm actually an example of a good day... Another guy that quit only made a little over 100 over 2 days of work! He had 15 deliveries between the two days and probably spent at least 40 in gas... No wonder their employment ads won't go away!
