Anyone know anything good or bad about Valley Bulk Transport in Victorville, Calif. ? Thanks!
-
Whoa, whoa, whoa now. You need to tell us about the aforementioned companies we've told you about, before we tell you anything else........
Diesel Dave Thanks this. -
Just trying to find the best company so I don't waste time barking up the wrong tree. Know what I mean?
-
Yeah, just messin' with you, however, posting YOUR experiences helps others who may be reading here. You asked about these companies, and I assume you talked with them, so, if you did, what is the outcome ?
-
I am doing gas now but getting tired of the smell and the aggravation of having cameras in the trucks and avoiding getting run over while unloading. I have done dry bulk in the past.
-

Did you say "CAMERA'S" in the truck ? Why and for what?
-
Diesel Dave because to haul for the big oil companies like Arco(BP) Chevron etc... they require it. And alot of the bigger tanker companies feel it's cheaper to micro-manage drivers and have their insurance companies give them lower insurance rates. That's why it's no fun anymore. I don't feel I need big Daddy watching over my shoulder. That's not why I became a driver. I'm sure you feel the same way. Be safe!

If your working for a major oil company you must be getting HAZARDOUS pay. $$$. Why look for a powder company and make twice LESS ? What give's ?
-
All the majors are getting rid of their trucks and drivers and outsourcing. So you can work for a penny pinching carrier that will pay you the same as a ltl carrier $19-$20 per hour and lots more bs. There is not such a thing as hazard pay at least that I have never seen. After being in the petroleum business for so many years and exposed to all the cancer causing chemicals in gas I have seen many friends die from cancer and other health problems from being around that crap for so long.
