LaPlace, LA & Surrounding Areas (New Orleans Metro / River Parishes) The Money You get paid per job, not per hour — and there's no ceiling. $800/week guaranteed base just for being on call. Per-job bonuses kick in on top of that, plus weekly acceptance rate bonuses. We'll walk through the full structure in the interview — but here's what it looks like in practice: our techs running steady take home $1,000-$1,500/week. Top performers clear $2,500+. No shop. No clock to punch. You're not grinding 50-hour weeks under fluorescent lights for someone else's flat rate. The Work Dispatched through our 24/7 centralized dispatch to service major national fleet clients. Roadside and on-site diesel truck and trailer repairs — brake chambers, airlines, gladhands, water pumps, tires, air leak diagnosis, electrical troubleshooting, jump starts, and more. You get the call, roll to the site, fix the truck, move on. No shop. No service manager. No standing around. Louisiana is one of our strongest markets and we're currently turning away calls east of Baton Rouge because we don't have anyone based there. We need a strong tech based near LaPlace, Reserve, Gramercy, Destrehan, Norco, Luling, Boutte, Kenner, Metairie, Gonzales, or Hammond who can cover the New Orleans metro, the River Parishes industrial corridor, and I-10, I-55, I-310, I-12, US-61 and US-90. This is a 24/7 on-call role. You tell us when you're unavailable, and we work around it — we don't expect you to never sleep. But the more available you are, the more jobs you get, and the more you earn.
