Nobody tells you what to charge. Everybody's rate is private, so the only way to find out you have been under the going rate for three years is somebody mentioning it in a yard. These are the rates field hands are actually billing, taken from their own tickets.
What rig welders are charging
Arm pay and truck pay are billed separately on most jobs, so they are shown separately here. If your labor rate looks fine but your rig rate does not, that is usually where the money is going missing.
What wind techs are charging
Per diem is the line techs most often leave on the table, and it is the one that decides whether a long travel rotation is worth taking.
What hot shot drivers are charging
A rate per loaded mile flatters itself. Deadhead is what decides whether a load paid, so compare against what you actually drove.
Quartiles rather than averages, so one emergency call-out at triple rate cannot drag the number somewhere nobody charges. Middle is the median and half of everyone sits between low and high. Published industry ranges are listed separately, dated and sourced, and never mixed into them.
Put your rates in once and RigTicket marks them against this board every time you write a ticket, so a rate that slipped under the market does not stay there for three years.
