I think I made a mistake/ ag truck companies

Maybe try taking a refresher course. I think they give you a certificate at the end of that. Better than nothing.

 

Nothing to refresh....except how short cuts use the wrong road!

 

Just what we don't need here in NorCal...another inexperienced, doesn't know any better tomato truck high-balling around Sacramento and the valley!

You think they wouldn't feed him a few lines about how he can make 3 turns, maybe 4 if he will drive for 18 hours then take his 8 off to get his log legal?

 

You can also try an owner operator outfit. keep looking

 

I just hope the hell you learned something from all those mistakes. Patience grasshopper...patience.

 

I've been driving around the Turlock area for 3 months now on a construction project. I give credit where it is due......The local drivers here including Tomato trucks have been respectful and courteous around my truck. So far so good. Had to report bad driving habits on another company hand recently for his own good and the rest of us that represent our company. He now has a much clearer understanding of safe driving habits.

 

Here is a short list of companies that run Ag around the Sacramento area. I'll post more when I think of any. Button Transportation, Valley Farm Transport, Mike Lowrie Trucking, Delta (John Perez Trucking), Tiger Lines, Frank C. Alegre Trucking. Get on the phone, times a wastin'.

 

Who operates like that? Out here, tomato hauling is shift work. Get your 6 to 8 or so loads, depending on the fields your working and the cannery your running to, and let the next guy have the truck. These guys don't run near 18hrs a day.
