The Heyl Truck Lines Experience

Southwest Florida is probably one of the most difficult areas to be hired from for a decent OTR job. I have considered Heyl because they seem to have their act together. Most companies I have researched that operate out of Florida seem to think that we don't need to make a living wage, or that we don't need to spend anytime at our homes. I accept the fact that we have to run at least 12-16 days out before we can justify a couple days off. That's trucking. It is interesting to me that people will blast a company because they don't offer one or two particular perks that others do. If I was a smart man I would have stayed with one company over the years and rode out the changes but I didn't. now I am trying to restart a career I left last year. As long as the company I choose will give me a reasonably safe vehicle to drive and decent paycheck, I will provide the up most service I can. There are too many drivers out here who don't have the opportunity to complain. I hope they consider my application. Thanks for letting me ramble.

 

good for you fargo came off hometime nice run to indiana and right back to columbus ga nice 4 days light loads seem to be busy down in fla well gotta un

 

First load is done. Tomorrow p/u some bananas for IL. that will put me at 2200 miles, should hit 3000 for the week.So far things are cool,no doubt you have to be a little more on your game with reefer loads. Liking it so far

 

A swing and a miss lol....1st week solo blows...into Canada ...I did get two new drive tires

That Banana load was fun, had me running nite time thru 70-68 to 79 to avoid tolls the series 60 with a 9 speed doesnt pull as nice as the dd15 with the 13 speed, oh well got her done . Chilling in Dixon Il waiting for some hours. starting to feel more comfortable with the heyl way of doing things just not a fan of the fuel routing system. Totally spoiled from running e-logs, embarrased my log book looks like my 3yr old filled it out.

 

its about time they replaced them, I've got all new rubber on the tractor,just the apu doesnt work for shizit.
