Info on a few reefer companies.....

Good ? I live in ohio myself and have wondered bout these companies myself... I've checked the 1st two u named websites for info but never talked to any drivers personally they are your smaller company 100 +/- trucks... and last one seem really small company couldn't even find a site for them...

 

Check Safer Web the web page for FMCSA. You can also link from there to get more info on equipment maintenance, log violations,etc.

 

Here's some answers to questions that I had and got in response to Mast Trucking--

1. We mostly haul meat, eggs, cheese and milk.
2. We start off at .40 cpm – after a 30 day review you would be eligible for up to .05 cpm safety bonuses, paid weekly.
3. About 75% of what we do delivers to , Eastern PA, VA, MD, DE, NJ & NY.
4. Where you live, you would be home most weekends.
5. Inverters are allowed (we will put it in for you) some of our trucks have APU’s

And for Dutchmaid--

We haul mostly Frozen Foods and primarily Ohio to the east coast NJ-PA-MD-NY and the New England states we do run some South East but not a lot. We get you home 3 out of 4 weekends on an average. We are specking all of our Newer trucks with APUs that are 2010 and newer and that is over half the fleet and all the trucks with APUs have 1500 watt inverters…..But when you start you will probably have one of the older trucks so the answer is yes our shop will install your inverter. The answer to your last question is that about 50% of our freight is drop and hook which means the other 50% is live load or unload and we do our best to get drivers in and out of docks in a couple of hours but I would be a big fat liar if I told you this happens every time.

 

Since your friend drove for Magnum, why doesn't he look into Holland Enterprises? Also out of Fargo.
Coast to coast runs, no forced NYC,
not micro managed. no rail yards.

 

I worked local for Kreilkamp and it seems that the road drivers are micro managed. I really do not think that he would get a new truck as only the older drivers with years of service get those, the norm is older equipment with 600,000 to 1 million on them, they do a good job on maintenance, pay seems low.......

 

Mast Trucking is a great place to work IF you have integrity and a positive attitude and you treat people as you would like to be treated.
When I came to Mast Trucking it was, I thought, too good to be true. I was waiting for the bubble to burst and they show their true colors. Their true colors show from the first answered call "Mast Trucking, this is......." You can trust your first impression. They treat their drivers better than like family.
I found that they are people of their word. They value their drivers, they take care of their customers and their equipment.
Find out for yourself, call them Phone number deleted look them up on the Web at Masttruckinginc.com
You won't regret it. Good pay, good hometime, good equipment. EXCELLENT people.

Thanks for reading this.
