On-hauling

Definition

Hauling paving, grading or fill onto a public works site as part of the construction flow.

Why It Matters

State law can treat that driver as a public works worker and not a haulage line, which means prevailing wage on those hours. It is the single largest reason a seller's driver cost is not the buyer's driver cost on the same jobs: a fleet moving to more public work carries a labor rate set by schedule and not by the market. Establish which jobs qualify before modeling a shift toward municipal customers.
