It really depends on the account. I’m on a dedicated account that really didn’t have any accessorial pay before. My cpm didn’t change, but now get $10/hr for on-duty time, so I’m making a little more than before. You get the hourly pay when in yard-move, so I use that at the OC and any other location it’s allowed.
The accounts that had a lot of accessorial pay, like Walmart, seem to be worse off. I’ve heard their drivers complaining about it at the OC. I was talking to an OTR driver on Saturday and it sounds like he was doing ok on it.
