    Any info on them? How about current drivers, are they a decent company? I know they run a lot of Meijer and Target stuff also see them a lot at Nestle waters in Standwood, MI. I am thinking about going with them. I have been off driving a few months with family stuff and that is all good now. Tried to get something local, but not going to happen. Thanks and any info would be helpful.

    I must be doing something wrong then, because when I tried that before I even posted the question and got no results. I just tried it again and the same thing??? Thanks though.

    Thanks for checking too. I was using the search button in the middle of new posts and quick links buttons and got nothing, but just tried using the gooogle search on the right hand side of the page and got a few results. Thanks to both of ya for helping out.:biggrin_25514:

    I spent almost two years driving for NTB, the water loads are always within a couple hundred pounds of your 80,000 lbs max, had them load 47900 in a trailer, and couldn't scale it out with a condo... lots and lots of Meijers both to the stores and from DC to DC , and picking up the slack at Target when needed. you will be bumping a lot of docks, I think I dropped 7 trailers on my best night( and it is night time work) you will slip seat trucks, my biggest gripe...( was switched in/out of 4 trucks in one 5 day work period), you get an assigned truck, but until you have some time in there , you truck is fair game the minute you get out( I had drivers waiting for me to get my gear out for my home time so they could get in) and be prepared to work all of your 70 hrs in 5 days, they pay you short haul and weekend bonuses(loaded miles only), d-time for live loads/unloads, watch for the live loads/unloads at the end of your 14 hours, went in to the 20+ hrs on duty thing more then once ... not a BAD company to work for, there are way worse places to be working... really the pay/miles are pretty steady, there are some good people there....I just found some thing better for me, gets me home everyday, pays me 5 and 1/2 cent more a mile, I still get 2 days off a week and is still less then 20 miles to work...
