    Hey everyone, so I'm suppose to start with this company " Fast Cargo Inc." out of Indianapolis, IN. Orientation starts the 6th of next month. Anyway, I wanted to know if any driver out there is familiar or has,Is workinf for them and how was/Is their experience with them. I'm going in as a company driver, Myself i've been driving for 8 yrs. So if anyone can shed some light lie info on them, do they run logs or elogs? are they governed(pretty much everyone is getting governed) thanks:Trailer::biggrin_25525:

    I believe that I would have asked the recruiters these questions before I made a commitment to attend orientation.

    Update:
    So i just asked these q's to the recruiter and answered everything so far so good but the only thing I have a little concern is, they are also known as " XPress Cargo Inc." you see things like these and make wonder is the company good.

    Flying how do you rate,lol.Good luck with this company.The company probably would have paid for a bus ticket if you wanted to go that route..kb a company I drove for also flies drivers in but some don't like flying so they take the long bus ride instead.

    I don't know much about them. I have seen a couple of their trucks up off of Keystone and 70 and believe that is where their terminal is located. If so, please know that terminal is in a very bad part of town. Just fyi.
