4 1/2 months ago we started up with our first flatbed company called, All Points Freight Inc. They apparently have been around since the mid 80's and have slightly grown in size since then. When we were hired, their was another young guy there but we never really got to know him because he quoted, " I'm leaving soon! " and a 2 months later he did, so did about 4 other drivers. We just came back from a Florida run which was a favour to the boss/owner of the company. A day before we talked to him and said, " This isn't working out! " and he agreed. He told us to unpack all of our stuff from the truck and go home, or go pick up some loads and then go home. Well the truck was already running, pre-trip was done and it was good to go, so we went. Before we left, the boss came back and asked us if we could take these loads to Florida because he didn't have another driver, so we did.

For the past four months it has been constant hell with that company. They put us down every second they get, take their personal lives out on os, use us for scapegoats, verbally abuse us. The boss is going through a divorce and decided that we would be the best people to take all of his frusterations out on. Their sign out front says, Licensed Mechanic.... WRONG! Their are two guys in the shop and neither of them are Licensed. An example of their work, Our friend who just left the company the other day, was driving one of the mechanics peterbilts and they were sending him through the mountains with no engine brakes and many other defects. They were holding a good majority of the smaller componants with bungee cords and said it was fine the way it is, he refused to take it, they fired him. Their example of fixing stuff on any truck is zip ties. Ridiculous!!

They pay a brand new driver, fresh out of school, 47cents a mile and pay drivers that have been driving for more than 4 years, 43cents a mile. How does that work?

Anyways,
They have 9 out of 11 trucks sitting empty... Enjoy!

when your boss "told you" to unpack your truck, you should have done so. but you stayed, and i believe this was your mistake.

i don't need to be "told" to clean out my truck..............

i do that quite well on my own..............thanks...............

I believe All Points is a division of Dart, Have not heard much about Dart.

Doesn't sound like a good company at all.

sounds like fun .....mountains no engine brake.......trade you trucks.....mine leaks oil badly...to the point where the starter went out i believe from all the oil leaing onto it.....but someone was right i have only been driving for 2 years and noone has ever had to tell me to unpack my truck..ussaully i am already packed and ready to quit..and as far as taking another run for them, all your doing is giving them the chance to stick it to you

Different company. There is an Allpoints associaated with Dart, but it is not a flatbed company. Everything Dart does is dryvan work.

The All Points Freight, that this person is referring to, is located in Bradford, Ontario.
