just finished my lease agreement with denver cargo, and im planning to switch to owner operator with them after a little break. for the 2 years i worked for them they always treated me right and even on the lease to own i was still making decent money. im surprised by some bad reviews because ive never had a colleague complain this bad. but then again, only people who arent satisfied seem to leave reviews, when good drivers dont have time for that... so here is mine for a change.
Pros
good mileage weekly, good dispatch and communication with maintenance.
Cons
should screen the drivers more before hiring

this is my third month driving for denver cargo and the pay has been consistently good. this week i made $2800, my dispatcher always finds the best loads, with many miles. i cant complain about anything for my 3 months with them.
Pros
good equipment and mileage every week. dispatch is good.
Cons
none that i can think of

To drivers
They got me good over here, I've been around Chicago but this one takes the cake, the first truck issued to me breaks down in the first week after they said the leak was fixed, they fly me over to Maryland to pick up a mangled abandoned truck that had the DEF system illegally modified, I said im not going to complain let's just move and make this work, after about a week I started getting nose bleeds and headaches from the fumes coming up through the cab, i told the company about it but they didn't seem to care to much even after I lost the AC/heater in the front, I finally had enough and finished a load in VA and told them I'm good, pick your truck up where I live in PA, they're tracking system seemed to be up and down in the cab ,or so they say,so I was on these primitive logbooks for about 3 days , American drivers DO NOT GO HERE! Si Hablas español corre! I rather go to superego then go here again
Pros
They let me in a motel for about 3 days but it was my first week there and I just wanted to work not have my truck be in the shop
Cons
Equipment sucks, dispatchers are belligerent, another scam Chicago company
