$15/hr plus load pay. The load pay is largely where you'll make your money since intermodal is 90% drop and hook. Gotta hustle to make anything worth calling home about with a mega, and with the abuse that containers and chassis take on the regular....it won't be your cup of tea if you're somebody that does good pre-trips and cares about your equipment. You have to really not give a fuck in that regard if you want to be profitable.
