    I have to say that after being with various companies and finding my niche in the industry. A team run which is no longer on the road more than 3-4 days a week with a full 3 days off at least...and have to have a route...preferably to somewhere like Texas from Ohio. With darn good pay....Carter has gone the distance and then some...
    When I first signed on after Carter got a certain contract from my past employer I will admit I was skeptical but loved my route so went with them....first thing I noticed was my fatter paycheck...then my monthly team sign on bonus. Then all the great people in dispatch and the upper management.
    I will admit I am all about the $$$ but here you get the full treatment....Did I mention all the fuel and safety bonuses? Vandalia is the newest in the Carter family... Cannot speak about the other terminals because I have never been to any of them and heard mixed stories especially from the day drivers but all the route teams I have talked to love them... Been here going on two years now So if you live near Dayton and want a change....contact Carter....you won't regret it....

    We idle and as far as I know they have no policy against it.
    I think otr drivers can but you would have to ask,we park at the terminal.

    Do you have any info on solo drivers and the pay they get per mile or perdiem.

    All Volvo trucks with auto .

    i am thinking of going with Carter in Anderson , Indiana and I would think they probably run close to the same routes as Ohio.
    Can you tell me some of the places you go , are they hard to get into , do trucks have APU , fridge , GPS , Sirrus radio

    Any info you can share would really help , thanks
