    ok newbie here! got a question does conway truckload deliver to conway freight terminals?T here is a freight location near where i live. if that is the case should it be more likely to actually get home time? does conway really get you HOME. or will i be on the road forever?

    I look forward to the long hauls but would like to have some life away from the truck once in a while

    Con-way truckload does pull Con-way Freight loads. Teams pull them alot but solo drivers don't too often. Some freight yards do let truckload drivers park their trucks there on hometimes, just depends on how many they already have doing it.

    As far as getting home, CWTL has a 7 day highlight policy (as long as you are lpcated within their hiring area). You send them a msg letting them know you want to go home and they have 7 days to get you there. If they dont have you on a load headed home by the 8th day then they pay you to dh home. You can highlight as soon as you have been out for 7 days or you can stay out as long as you want, all up to you.

    As far as actual days off, you earn 1 day off for every 7 you are on the road. You don't have to take them within any certain amount of time though, they just keep adding up until you use them, never expiring. You can only take a maximum of like 14 off at once though without having a good reason and getting it approved.

    Hope that helps, take care!

    Well you have a new friend for sure :) and I sent you my info in a PM you can use me as a reference if you wish but no need to for bonus purposes. They actually don't pay recruitment bonuses on student drivers (just out of school), only for drivers with atleast some experience. (I only knwo this for sure because my boyfriend was bummed when he couldn't get one for me lol).

    It cost me another week of crappy miles, but I suppose in the end it was worth it. It is a 2012 and had 986 miles when I got it. It has about 6000 now. I really do enjoy it though. Lots more storage the the KW I had and it rides like a car.
