Current Employee - May 4, 2024

Good company, Excellent for drivers out of Edwardsville area. Drop and hook Freight and they have several contracts to keep you busy. I'm doing the Amazon and i work with AJ, who is the ABSOLUTE BEST dispatcher you can have. Jameson is good too. Bruce in safety is very helpful in stressing situations. Good people in the right places. Pay is good enough for me to book a round trip flight home ever 2 weeks and not be bothered! However, the amazon routes are demanding and if you're lazy, you're going to be sent to another division.

Pros

Good hometime Good pay Good Dispatchers & safety dept Weekly pay

Cons

Slipseat for local drivers

Lied to get me there to lease on to them promised better pay and dedicated route drop and hook never got paid or drop and hook it was all live load and unload 3weeks I was there for example I grossed 3500+ in a short week and got 399 dollars after all take outs smh crazy then the dispatcher got upset with me cause I denied a load there he was arguing with me kept texting and I told him I’m not about to do the back and forth so I left

Pros

None

Cons

Every load I got was low paying for long drives nobody answer your phone calls you have to pay out of pocket to get the weight of the load they use your truck and you pay all type of deductible also a lease fee I was told it was 88%of the load but when I got there they said it’s 78% it was just too many lies

LOW Freight. Recruiter, dispatch, and owner lie about everything. Bad choice to lease on with them They do not deliver on what they promised, when persuading me to lease on.

Pros

Direct deposit every Friday

Cons

No Freight, sit at home too much. No detention time pd lots of sitting between loads. They hold out $600 monthly from your check for Cargo and PLPD Insurance. Fuel discounts are rare and no fuel surcharge pd out. Missouri scales pull AGX trucks in every time due to bad CSA scores. BEWARE!!!
