Estes vs Superior Carriers

When doing p&d work you get paid hourly doing linehaul you get paid mileage.

 

Majority of trucking companies don't pay overtime at all; they're exempt.
If you don't want to go through the dockworker program, then go with Superior-Carriers. After a year you can go straight to a linehaul driving position with Estes.

 

I had an interview beginning of dec with them they said they like for the guys to either start with them on the dock or have 2 years of doubles with someone else. They seem to be really picky

 

If someone has the patience, the dock to driver program really pays off in the long run. Once you finally get to a linehaul position, the big paychecks start to roll in. @KaoMinerva recently started with Estes; maybe he can give good advice.

 

Any way you can get it my best advice is to get in. I still have the regional bug and don't like driving nights so I chose Xtra board. They feed me whatever I want. I'm retiring from here.

 

I wouldn't recommend that combo stuff because I'm lazy, but you'll be paid hourly for dock, mileage for miles. Simple

 

I swear I've never worked for a place that has ####ed up my paycheck more than Superior. Save yourself the hassle and stay away. I could write a book. Their good reputation on this forum is completely unfounded in my experience with them (1 year). YMMV and all that.
