Hey Everyone!
I'm a posting newbie with two quick questions. I've been driving for Estes for about 11 years. However, I'm thinking of transferring from AZ to TX since my aging parents live there.
- Does Estes perform a background check on employees that transfer? I got into some legal trouble right after they hired me, and the conviction's on my record (no legal issues at all before or after that mess).
- Does anyone have info on the largest Dallas terminals? You know about the TM, life as a Combo Driver, and things. I've asked around at my local terminal but can't seem to find any good intel.

KaoMinerva,
I think @KaoMinerva transferred to Dallas; he can fill you in.PeachTart Thanks this. -
With regards to the criminal stuff, I doubt it. But, if the criminal stuff was 7 years ago or longer there is little chance it would affect you if they did.
Hopefully they aren’t charged that would complicate a new hazmat background when you convert your license.PeachTart Thanks this. -
@jtaran06 worked there for a while too IIRC.

2. TM is cool in Dallas. Life as combo is the same but you'll make less money because you're coming from Estes West. If you didn't know, Estes is 1 big company made of two. Estes, and Estes West. You guys on the west get paid a little more. Too much to explain. A $10 drop and hook becomes $8 and so on.PeachTart, Texas_hwy_287, Cardfan89 and 3 others Thank this. -
Jay5GS Thanks this.

Curious about the transfer policy with Estes. When one does transfer does all of his time with the company go with him if going into the same position but different state? Also does the pay go with you too, say if your topped out up north and go south does it just go to whatever the top rate is down south or does your pay start from the beginning?
