    Hello everyone
    I just graduated from driving school in MD. Can someone give me any information about Melton van lines? Perhaps a former driver?

    There good if you hate your wife or house, but if you like going home, heh. I've heard a lot of drivers say they had to drive out of route to the yard then get a bus just to have home time. They do seem to take care of their drivers but theser safety rating ain't too great.

    Good if you hate your wife or house huh? How long have or did you work for them? Oh wait, you say you heard from other drivers they had to do this or that? Don't always believe what everybody tells you, take it with a few grains of salt. I was with them for 5 months until I got injured on home time and had to go back to slamming doors to let myself heal, which is still a on going process. I live 600 miles away from closest terminal, but I never had to park at a terminal and take a bus to go home. That's just me though.

    Who told you that at orientation? And how long did you work there, you never did answer that question i asked. Obviously they were wrong, seeing as they hire out of a lot of places and you take your truck home with you unless you live really really close to a terminal.

    I didn't work for them, and it was an office guy passing through, but hey, maybe you just got the right dispatcher.

    Oh so you never actually worked for them? You were talking like you actually worked for them before and know how they actually are. Hearing it from someone who might or might not be a current or former disgruntled employee or driver and actually experiencing it yourself and dealing with it are 2 completely different things.
