    good luck getting the recruiter to answer the phone or return a call.....they've been around a while have a good rep is about all I've heard, O/O package is suppose to be pretty good also..

    Can't remember the exact town but it was around Joliet....

    I hauled a broker load for them a few years ago that picked up at one of their terminals in that area..

    There was a thread on this company awhile back but it was from a Guy who got fired from the company, but he didn't talk bad about them, just his experience.

    There is an A&R Transport in LaPorte, Tx (near Houston).

    They haul pneumatic tankers.

    They are mostly large cars (O/O's).

    Are you talking about A&R the tanker bunch(pnuematics etc) or A&R the reefers out of chicago area--very different--the reefer bunch is all O/O w/own trk/trl/authority--that A&R is basically a broker with trucks--they do lot's of east coast LTL and the drivers I have spoke with are quite happy--if that is the kind of work you are looking for
