As far as I knew (and I did drive for A&S Kinard), they operated as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Celedon Group, so yes, Celedon and A&S were technically sister companies. As for interaction with Celedon though, I had gotten a couple of tire repairs done at the Celedon terminal in Carlisle. Other than that, the companies were pretty much independent, and we were not allowed to pull Celedon trailers, at least on our fleet.
They are a good company, and I'd still be there if the dispatcher on the (day cab) fleet I was on didn't try to run us out of hours almost daily. We'd finish off a 7 hour first pull, and then get dispatched on a 6 hour second pull. Under perfect conditions, perfectly legal and doable, but as anyone knows, traffic and construction in the northeast can be and is heavy and unpredictable, and that 6 hour second pull could easily turn into an 8 to 9 hour run. It got to be too stressful trying to beat the clock at the end of the day.
Good good company a&s kinard

Nobody wants to comment about the pay rates. I'm going to assume that it is not good. But money isn't everything.
