I don't mind the uniforms and dress code. Been in the military almost 20 years. I want to be able to grow my goatee once I retire from the Army, and the no facial thing put me off from Averitt.
Dude, what you're talkin' about is simply a matter of priorities. Facial hair vs. a good job? C'mon!

Dude, I spent the last 20 years being told what I can and cannot have on my face. If it's between them and another company, I'm going with the other guy.

To tell you the truth it takes time to learn the system of any company and what works for you.Averitt is a sound company with there own policies that take some getting use to but in all I think they are a great co.to work for.Uniforms are a plus(co.paid) professional look (no sweat pants hogs allowed) the management are good folks to work with and with any company communication is the key to the success of the co.& your paycheck!! I'm home every weekend(tell me of another co.that pays your miles to go home?)I average between $ 55/$60 k yr. drive nice well maintained equipment,good benefits,paid holiday & vacation pay,truckload trucks have APU'S & never had a problem being paid for what I've done. And yes times are very hard now & miles are down(for all trucking) but a man/woman should consider themselves lucky to have a job in today's economy. I have 1,865,341 accident free miles since getting on board with Averitt(1.9 million before sign-on) and always give 110% effort with any employer.( I hope this answers some of you questions about my company)Good Luck & do your homework before signing on with any company!
how can i become a part of that team,i dont have but one moving violation which is improper lane but the 2 incidents i rebuttaled with usis,and company violation with this renagade company,that hired me back. you think i would be able to get around this non-sense and prove myself as a good driver.i have no crimnal and all endorsements

I'm thinking of doing a dedicated account for averitt. I'm ok with the uniforms but to be clean shaven and have short hair has got me thinking.

I just applied for a driver position at the new Kalamazoo, Mi terminal. I was wondering how long it takes for them to contact you if you have been accepted? Do they have orientation? And where?
