Knight pet policy, restrictions?

Why don't you just call a recruiter?

 

Also he wants to ask people who know, rather than get wind blown up his rear?

 

I know in Florida I heard about the "new pet policy" only to discover there are no pets allowed out of the Florida office... Even though their job postings still promote the "new pet policy"... Hoping that is not true of the Charlotte office.

 

Never heard of any terminal being "Excluded" As far as I know the policy is corporate wide and Phoenix has the say on this one. Good thing to ask when you talk to a recruiter at the terminal. Make sure you make it pointed so they cant beat around the bush!

 

There was an issue with the Lakeland terminal denying drivers on the policy. Last I knew that was addressed and drivers are now allowed as advertised company wide.

In the end it is up to your division safety to approve, and then corporate safety. It's $400 deposit with $200 refundable. You must be off probation. My boy is close to 50 lbs., so I'm not sure about size restrictions. It might be a terminal thing, and again something that is up to your safety guy. Good luck!

 

Is the probation for all drivers or just rookies?
My local job is slowing down so I'm looking to hire on with Knight and the recruiter didn't say anything about a probationary period before I can bring my pet otr.
I can have someone watch my dog for the orientation but not for the whole probation period.

 

Depends on the terminal, your best bet is to get ahold of a recruiter out of your area and ask them.

 

Well according to my recruiter in Gulfport there is no probation for pets or passengers if you have experience. The probation is for trainees only.
