Maverick Pay

I got approved for maverick transportation and the recruiter told me that the division im going to (temp control division) has a min guarantee pay of 1000 weekly..can somebody give me more info on that..does it mean i still get the 1000 if i drive 1000 miles or 3000 miles..just wondering if there was a catch to it..

I don't know their exact policy. Maybe someone from Maverick will be able to chime in. But for most companies with minimum pay guarantees they have certain criteria you must meet. Normally it requires that you must be available for dispatch for all 7 days that week, and you have to be on time to your appointments, that sort of thing. As you might expect, they do not intend to give anyone free money. If they'll give a guarantee like that then they fully expect they can keep you quite busy.

I am not sure about Maverick but I do know most companies that do a minimum guarantee will pay you the guarantee as long as you are available for dispatch and do not turn down any loads that they offer. Also if you run more miles and would make more than the guarantee then you would of course be paid more. So yes if you only ran 1000 miles for the week but you were available for dispatch all week and did not turn down any loads offered then you would be paid the $1000... How ever if you run 3000 miles and would make more than the $1000 minimum then you would be paid the higher amount of the 2. Hope this helps explain some.

Thanks for the info

C. T. on here has been a Maverick driver for quite some time on here so if he sees this topic, he could probably give ya the best idea on what to expect.
