Worked here for 4 years and was fired just like that. This company has changed since I started in 2020 use to be a good company but now it's washed up with a bunch of lazy workers, management and dispatch are lazy drivers are the worst here they act like little kids and sneaky fyi you will never move up here it's a waste of time, you work hard and they load you up with more work meanwhile the other drivers are just sleep or sitting Ken and David need to screen their people who they put in charge it's outrageous who they have in charge and dispatch this company when you see thr big bosses come to your terminal they look uncomfortable and lost

A waste of time big mistake you will struggle paying your bills bottom of the barrel company if your truck breaks down you are done because the pay is so little you will have to max out credit cards and go into debt, a job for someone that doesnt know any better or cant get hired any where else and if you have a truck payment, plan on having it repossessed there is no money at this company i was lucky enough to leave and sell my truck i am making more money as a company driver someplace else than i was as an owner operator at roadone .

Pros

Home time was good no forced dispatch

Cons

The low pay for an owner operator dont do it to yourself its a dead end road working there poverty and depression will be a thing of the norm.

Need To Make A Decision. RoadOne or CSX???

I was signed on to roadone in jacksonville fl. My check was so up and down it was not pleasant. 3 weeks net would be 7 to 900 and seemed like once a month I would hit 1500 or so.

Need To Make A Decision. RoadOne or CSX???

I work for Road One (Roadlink). Every company will have pros and cons. 

#1 Even though there's no forced dispatch you shouldn't go in thinking that you can pick and choose your loads everytime. Everything is 1st come 1st serve unless you're on a dedicated route. Btw, there aren't any "official" dedicated runs, but if you can manage your time very well then you can get to your destination and back everyday for the next pick up. So dedicate'ish. On the open board just expect to get a mix of light and heavy stuff. 

#2 The income quote is a fair estimate provided that the work is there. Like every company there will be peaks and lows in this regard.

#3 CSX, Road One, and other intermodal companies are pretty much the same. The main thing that you'll have to ask yourself is if you want to deal with the rail yards AND intermodal equipment. Sometimes you'll be sitting there all day trying to "flip" a chassis, or if the billing wasn't processed, or simply waiting on a train to get there and unload. Every yard has a personality that you'll have to learn to Live with. I can say that Road One does NOT pay detention at the rail. Forget whatever a recruiter will say regarding this. However, if a shipper detains you then after 2.25hrs you'll earn it. Yes, the clock starts after 2hrs but it's paid in 15min increments so in reality it's 2.25hrs.

I've heard that CSX equipment is worse than Pacer ones. In any case, you'll learn to be a mechanic regarding these chassis for the sole reason of avoiding waiting in the Roadability line to get it fixed by their mechanics. Some yards are better/faster than others regarding this - again, personality. You'll also learn to absolutely HATE 10R/20 tires lol. They blow like they were made for it. The heavier the load the more likely it'll happen (which is another reason o/o's tend to avoid the heavy crap). Put air in the tires or not - it seems not to matter.

I could go on and on but like I said before, the main thing you have to consider is if you want to deal with the equipment. Companies like Road One don't own it, and therefore aren't responsible for maintaining it. CSX might be different since they literally have equipment with their name on it, but as I mention before, I've heard that they don't maintain theirs any better than Pacer does. Road One does try to give you all the supplies you'll need for minor fixes like lights, grommets, wiring for the lights, mudflaps, crank handles, gladhands+seals, and zip ties. The only reasons to go to roadability are flat/bad tires, abs, missing lock pins, expired/missing inspection sticker/paperwork, and some other major stuff.

Spoke with a RoadOne driver out of the Baltimore terminal. According to him, it's a little slow right now and he's only doing 2 loads a day. He's still netting $1800 after cost to the truck. Also said that there is a ton of work here in the Jersey area but the guys up here don't want to do it. Sometimes Baltimore has to send help to the Jersey terminal to help move loads.
