Swift does not own Central Refrigerated. sk8nfun16 News Flash for you Jerry Moyles OWNS Central and he also owns SWIFT , heres a bit of HISTORY on the deal.
Central Refrigerated Service is a company formed on the skeleton of an old company. Its founding was the result of the purchase at bankruptcy auction of a substantial portion of the assets and operations of Dick Simon Trucking by Central Freight Lines. At the time of the bankruptcy filing in February 2002, Moyes was chairman and the largest stockholder in Dick Simon Trucking. The Simon family was no longer involved, their participation having faded away during the previous year. Central Freight Lines, a dry van and LTL carrier based in Waco, Texas, also is owned by Moyes. The reconstituted company began operation as Central Refrigerated Service on April 22, 2002, and celebrated one year of profitable operation in April 2003.
As of December 31, 2002, Central was spun off from Central Freight Lines as an independent company with Moyes as the sole owner. Central still owns the two Simon corporate names ' Simon Transportation Services and Dick Simon Trucking ' but has made the decision to make a clean break with its past and change the name and appearance of the entire company.

I think there may be a joke somewhere in that statement.Armywife Thanks this. -
Must be why Jerry has a TELETHON every year to RAISE $ for his KID's , oops wrong Jerry
Its a wonder Moyles does not try it as well. -
Okay, I got a question. This thread is 128 pages long and I'm to lazy to read all of them, so this question might have been asked. But, to truly rate these companies, wouldn't you have had to have worked at all of them?
I can't comment on any of them. Haven't worked for them and I won't take what I have read on here as gospel(sp). -
You would be surprised at the # of drivers who have likely worked for ALL these outfits , and be even more surprised at the # of times some have gone back to them .

Not that's scary -
that "other" company is REALLY BAD!! must be true... never seen their logo anywhere.
AfterShock Thanks this. -
to pro 1 driver...swift does not put someone as a mentor with only 3 months experience-get your facts straight before you post.

My question is...
What makes these MEGA companies so bad? (Im looking to get into the trucking industry so any insight is valuable to me)
Horrible pay?
Management?
Never home?
Not enough miles?
No bennies?
I have to think that they cant be THAT bad, or they wouldnt still be in business...but thats just me as an outsider thinking.
Any insight please!
