Pros

Set work days, plenty of uniforms,

Cons

Can’t make over 57 hrs and after driving all day stop after stop you wouldn’t even want to. No room for advancement route mangers punish the good drivers by not letting them switch to better spots or roll off. You will not I repeat you will not make a 1000 a week take home at residential roll off you can but residential is not worth the time or the headache.
