Bison Transport buying Hartt Transportation

Bison pays .42 cpm after their “big raise”

 

Where did you get that number from?

 

Just be glad that they were purchased by another trucking company. Once a private equity company purchases a trucking company to add to their portfolio, it’s usually downhill. If profits drop, the company is dismantled and sold in sections, contracts, real estate, and equipment.

 

It is fairly easy. If you know what to do. At Bison, we have a customs department that handles all the peocedures. All we need to do is forward our paperwork to them and they are dealing with the brokers and set up the manifests. We're getting automated messages during the process. Through an internal app we can check the clearance status as well and upload the ppwk.

To the port of entries, it's a hit or miss. I can only speak about those from central and east.
The most unpredictable in regards of waiting times is Windsor/Detroit in both directions.

 

How did the transition go?

 

Use the chance if you can. Rob is a nice guy. He started at Bison as a driver and worked his way up.
