Buchanan hauling and rigging

Any driver's on here working for Buchanan. I've been here over a month and am pleased with them so far. They have kept me moving and the money is good as well as hometime. The e logs for company drivers are a pain takes awhile to get use to. I have always ran loose leaf doing reefers but am adjusting to them. Some of the equipment is older but very well maintained. I am in truck 2577 holler at me and say hi if you see me out on the road.

 

I'm still enjoying working for them. I have no complaints at all. I deliver quite a bit in Texas so your husband getting home should be no problem. I am coming off of home time and headed to Houston for a Monday delivery. If you have any questions I will try to answer them.

 

I unloaded Monday in Bellville TX just outside of Houston. Then ran up to LIberty and picked a load of pipe going to Terre Haute In for Wednesday morning then reloading in Terre Haute going to Wichita Ks for when I get there. I live in Arkansas and am a company driver. I wanted to test the waters before I did a lease purchase. All the lease drivers I talked to were happy and making money. The trucks are priced right and seem to pay off quick. A guy in my orientation got one that was for 18 months. The miles vary but we get paid on percentage so I don't worry about miles as long as I get good paying loads. I know they do go to Canada and those loads pay real good. They also have a van division that I don't know much about. I am happy here. They are pretty straight foward in what they tell you and want you to succeed whether lease or company or owner op. I do not deal with the Ft Wayne office for loads I am loaded by a broker out of my hometown who is affilated with them and her husband is a owner op for them. They treat me good and seem to be a good fit for me.

 

Glad I could help out if you have any more questions I try to answer or find out the answer. You can never have to much info before going to work somewhere. I ran reefets for quite some time before making the switch and will never go back. Well if it is a ha e to case I would. I usually don't get on here until I shut down for the day but yes let's stay in touch.

 

Sorry about the typos am using my phone to do this and it was suppose to say reefers and spell check didn't catch my mistakes.

 

Just wanted to say I am still with Buchanan Hauling and still like it here. I was a company driver for about 3 months then switched over to lease purchase. I paid my truck off in December. They have a good lease purchase which can be tough at times but can be done. This company works great for me and gets me home when I want. If anyone has questions I will try to answer them.
