    Health reasons. The owners are good folks. The company was financially strong, don't know about know. I never, ever, had a bad day with them. I do not know their current pay rate. Best of Luck !!!

    I work there from 2008 to 2014. Pay is .48 to .50 cpm. Hourly rate $18.00. Different accounts have different pay scales.I had to work six days a week to make a decent paycheck. Detention pay. You need a number and fill out proper paper work to get payed. Some dispatchers gave you the number others did 'nt care .Vacation pay , some years you got it. The next year nothing. You had to beg for it.Whats with trucking companies not paying there employees vacation pay?They all do it and it stinks , just like there benefit package.Beware of trucking companies that always have a help wanted sign outside the place. Look elsewhere you deserve a better place to work and so do I.
