CR England is one of the ones that push leasing big time. I'd cross CRE off your list. If you read the threads here on them, I don't think anyone has done well with CRE.

Ok. I am also looking to apply at Central referidgerated, CRST out of Iowa, and Prime inc. Would any of those be good to look into for being a solo company driver?
-
Central Refer and Prime would be worth a bit more of a look. CRST (Crash Roll & Stunt Team - sorry couldn't help myself
) I would stay away from too. They are on about the same level as CRE. Swift and Watkins Shepard might be worth a look too if they are an option for you as well. There are threads here on all of those mentioned.
-
Thank you LIl. I have been searching. I have narrowed it to Swift, Prime, Central, and Werner. Does Werner let you do solo company driver? The more I look into C.R. the more bad I find about it. What company do you drive for Lilbit?
-
As far as I know, Werner still does solo company. The kids just took over as the old man retired, so who knows what is going to happen there. I started with Swift myself, drove and dispatched for a local outfit for a while, and then drove for another OTR outfit. I've actually been out of the seat since late 2000. My hubby has been on the road since late 2007, with a couple of short time periods out of the seat.

Greetings from the Appleton area. Have you considered Schnieder National and going to a regional fleet? I think for OTR you might get home more with them.
-
Ic. Yea I haven't really heard much bad about Swift. I will check out Werner.
Hey there! I have heard people ragging on Schnieder. Is it really that bad? Haven't seen much on this site about it. You know how many weeks they are out? -
i am too a newbie, back in action. Parent farm in Cashton. Now i,m lost in Chicago, wishing to escape on the road again. Left my nursing job, for a better life as a professional driver. Anyway, ideas 4u, drive for that furniture Co. North of Sparta, ya know or join the Kwik trip team. Good luck.
-
Yea I know the Kwik Trip distribution is out of La Crosse. I am a good ways from there.
