    Hello my name is mike and I'm currently in trucking school in buffalo new York and I'm deciding on which company too go o for flatbed. I have a pre hire with maverick but's it's the glass division I also have one with Roehl and prime and Melton. I'm weighting my options at the moment. Anyone out there who works with these companies please help narrow the choices here.

    The only thing I like about Stevens is that they run hard and you get miles. And Werner their is a dedicated account out of bethel PA and it's for family dollor and it pays .55 a mile. But I really want too do flat bed just need to figure out which one

    Keep in mimd (from whay i remember) the maverick glass division is out for longer stretches of time compar3d to their other division.

    Either way i bet that would be the best company out of the ones you mentioned.

    Yea the recruiter told me I would be out 11 too 14 days, and I don't mind getting my over the road experience and seeing the country. Had an instructor tell me today that the glass division isn't that great unless you want too work hard for a living.
