Got approved to both CR England and Central Refrigerated

Central isn't bad. We just got taken over by swift but everything is starting to smooth out! They have a decent training program which isn't too short or too long in my opinion. Good luck to u!

 

There are videos on YouTube that u should watch about what to bring to training. They were helpful for me.

 

Six of one, half dozen of another. Both companies are about the same, training-wise.

 

Take a pillow and sleeping bag since you will be with a trainer on the road.

 

England is the worst bottom feeder to work for.

 

Are you saying CR England is the same level as Central refrigerated as far as the quality of training??... I would say CR England training program if that's what they want to call it I wouldn't call it One

 

As far as company driving goes, England and Central aren't much different.

England's lease scam is where they really shine as worst of the worst.

 

To be honest, I'd steer clear of both of them. If you're looking for a starter/training company they are basically the same. Don't let yourself get talked into a lease right out of the door. I drove for CRE for a little over a year and as soon as my obligation to them was fulfilled I moved on. The bottom line is this...if you can get the company paid training, put up with the low pay and first year hassles without any major incidents then you can blow those Popsicle stands and find a better paying gig/company...but you have to pay your dues first. You might also consider sending out apps to other companies while you are training, but make darn sure you have that hard copy CDL in your possession before you move on.
