Here is my take on maverick. I am not a new driver. I have worked for several companies over the years. Anything from box, tankers, flats, dumps, etc. Of all the companies the most honest and best co I ever dealt with was maverick. A lot of people could not make the cut. They are very selective on who they hire. You will do it their way. They treated me very good. Better than any other co I worked for. Only one company I know of that I liked as well, and it was not forced dispatch, triple digit, 18 speed long hood, no qualcomm, that I picked the runs. Decided when and where I would run and when I went home. Not many jobs left like that and nothing a newbie could get.
Mav was always more than fair with me. When I got home on a friday and found a water leak at home I called mav. I had a early 7 am drop in chicago monday morning. No problem. No call a plumber. They sent a truck to me and brought me an empty trailer to my house. They told me take as long as you need. Let us know when you are ready to roll. I remodeled the whole bathroom. Another time when I was 8-10 hours away from home waiting to load for my run home for thanksgiving the crane broke that was to load me. Called in and qualcommed was told give us a few to work something out. They called back go home. I said you do realize where home is right? They said yep, enjoy time with your family and dinner. They paid me to bounce home empty. Such a bad company they are...
Or the time I was loading in dallas and got the call. Daughter broke her leg and needed surgery. Mav said secure and tarp and stop in at NLR on the way home. I did. Went and talked to my FM and not only mine, but all the ones around her desk was on the phone trying to find me a swap to get me home. There was a load of shingles going that way. Wanted to know if I could take it. Dropped one state away from home. I took it. They paid my bounce the rest of the way home. Sent a get well card to my daughter.... such a bad company...![]()
What company do you think is better?
