The Heyl Truck Lines Experience

Im staying local from now on.OTR is just to hard on my famliy.

I know about frist fleet i went all the way to tampa and did interveiw with mike super nice guy but I was arrested for a felony 5 years ago that was droped to a misdermeaner long story i wont go into but that was all they needed to see and it was a no go.

Thanks for the feed back but i think im going back to fruit hauling thats how i got my start in this ten years ago.

6 to 7 days a week for 7 to 8 mo day cabs home every night but the company im looking into pays 13.00 an hr with OT!! 75 hrs a week and 1 doller per every hour bonus at the end of the season thats like 3K!! save up and take the goverment cheez for a few months when laid off for the summer.

 

Hey guys no offense, but this thread is about Heyl Truck Lines

 

Sitting in Jessup, MD. No load in sight. I got unloaded last night at around 2am. Now it's 9.30AM.
Another 3 Heyl trucks were also getting unloaded last night. I wonder how long I'll have to sit here in no parking zone...

On the other hand, I got paid today for my last load before I went home. 1450 miles = $630.
Fuel bonus for first two weeks was included. $138.
Amazing. I'm happy LOL

Thank you.
I'm so far very happy with Heyl.
I can confirm they can take care of business if your truck break down.
The first day after my hometime air dryer broke. I was at Florida Natural picking up a trl. Called shop, they had a guy there within 30 minutes.

Sorry xitman, heyl turned the guy down and we were just trying to help a fellow driver out, guess next time I'll start a NEW thread for the 3-4 posts that got this thread sidetracked.
And I did praise your company too, sorry if I took too much space here, won't happen again.
(sarcasm intended)

 

Yeah what he said!! BTW heyl did not turn me down that was first fleet. Oops better shut up,or is it ok I did mention heyl!!!

 

im sorry too

 

Well, last two days were kid of... weird. First kinda unusual wait for load, then I'll get a load right back to Florida. Load assignment says 186 miles empty and 1006 loaded.
I took the route plotted by NaviGo and it was 200 mt and 1051 loaded.
When I asked Tom about the difference, he wrote "You are getting paid by route miles not navigation systems".
Then I asked him what does he want me to do with it since the appointment is Monday 8 am and I'll be there by Saturday around noon.
He said he'll let me know. Since he didn't, I assume that I'm delivering it Monday. So tomorrow another day and a half of unplanned hometime.
It kinda sucks to have just under 2000 miles in 7 days. I hope next week will be better.

Too bad everythime I call and someone else than Tom picks up, they are all so nice to talk with...
Just my DM doesn't like to communicate.

Toms not a talker but all in all he's been good. You will have those weeks and that's ok as long as you don't have to many.

 

Hey rev, I live in Sarasota, just curious about when and where you start your day? Do they keep the trucks at Tropicana? I've had my eye on Heyl for a long time just putting in my dues with conway but otr is rough on the family, just like to hear some more about their local gig, thanks.
