    There is a company based in Mississauga Ontario that you should not only be aware of, but run from.

    Go Green Cargo .... Having worked there myself, and known a few owner operators that worked there, I can say, without question, the 2 owners, Pankaj and Arun, are 2 of the most dishonest, thieving people in the refrigeration transport business.

    To start with, an o/o starting with them must leave a $5000 deposit, in addition, pulling their (Go Green Cargo) reefer boxes, another $2500 per month must be paid as a "service fee".
    Add to this the fact that they hold 3 runs back before you see a penny.

    A penny that is NEVER paid at the agreed upon time.

    Whether as a driver or an owner operator, your settlement has to be chased down each and every time. And to boot, they still don't pay you your settlement on the new day that was promised.

    After one owner op, who took over one of their trucks, realized that he can no longer make a living with them, returned the truck, he was denied his $5000 deposit with the explanation that returning the truck was an inconvenience. On top of that, they withheld $3000 from his settlement.

    On top of everything else, the equipment, which can be called disposable at best, has more flaws, and unsafe tires, out of adjustment brakes, alignments that if you loosen your grip on the wheel violently pull the truck. And drivers are expected to operate the equipment regardless. The equipment repairs are done with the same time frame as settlements are given out....if you're lucky.

    Log books....lol...well....as they told their drivers.....LIE..just get the load there on time! Regardless of weather, road conditions....if you're delayed, make it up, shipping delays...doesn't matter...dispatch delays, or dispatch f*k ups, .........drive longer... for the teams, one should shower while the other fuels....eat while driving, don't stop........whatever it takes for the load to get there.

    I realize this isn't the first company like this, and won't be the last, but wow.... if I had the opportunity to speak with anyone considering this company, I'd say only one thing... R U N far and run F A S T ! ! !

    Astounding....:biggrin_25510:
