If they're held up at the dock, the carrier receives detention charges, so it's in the shipper's best interest to load the driver as fast as possible. The driver gets paid regardless. Rarely are they "held up" unless they're in Southern California or in the middle of inclement weather & then the load is rescheduled.
I see you refuse to answer the question ,,, the answer is NOTHING! you can sit all weekend and not get paid. And it happens regularly. While your at it, please advise how many hours a typical driver drives a DAY, lets see,, they changed the rules some was it 10 or 11 plus a few extra not driving!
In most cases that simply is not the case. Most shippers couldn’t care less if you’re there for two days - they have no money out of their pocket.
Some companies do have contracted rates for delay times, but even those rates allow for 2 hours of delay time prior to paying the driver anything at all. Even then, the driver normally gets minimal pay (usually 12-15 per hour). In years past, you could log this time as time spent sleeping - but it no longer works that way: you must show a consecutive 8 hours of bunk time prior to moving the truck and then you must show an additional 2 hours before the 24 hour period is up (gotta have 10 hours of off-time in each 24 hour period).
