    Anyone know anything about Whiteline Express?

    They have a local hub to me and claim 100% no touch?

    Thanx

    I see them at various paper plants i go to, occasionally have talked a bit with some of their drivers. They are a van company primarily, running the midwest for the most part. Drivers seemed about average on the happiness scale, pay is standard for the industry. Trucks are mainly IH sleepers, plain jane fleet models, but they do the job well enough. Basically, this is a fairly quiet company that seems to fit in with the middle of the industry. You could probably do better somewhere, you could just as easily do worse. Depending on where you live and locations of the terminals, they might well be worth a look.

    their main terminal is pretty close to me - they claim home very weekend and 100% no touch freight

    just wondering if any of this is true

    If their that close to you, finding a driver at a truck stop should be fairly easy - go down and see if one will talk to you. Best of Luck!

    When i worked for my dad i did alot of del. to to the proctor and gamble
    in milan (ext32 off of 23) and they used to have an accont with them.
    So there driver's are in and out of there all day. check that out.
    Directions, if in a car take exit 32 turn west go through new part of town
    to you hit I beleive the 2nd stop light(apx1 1/2 miles).... there is a set of tracks right across from it and there is some sort of auto repair odd shaped bdl on the left turn left and go down abot a mile facility on the left
    2nd driveway and you will see alot of schenider trailers in the back( they have an acount with p&g also).
    If you are in a truck you have to the take next exit I belive it is 29(but don't relie on that) turn west you will pass a ford plant p&g is about 1/2 mile from there on the right. good luck

    WARNING: DO NOT TAKE EXT:32 IF YOU ARE IN A TRUCK, IT'S A NO TRUCK ROUTE...

    Oh yeah, be careful if in a truck with ext:29 speed limit is 20mph and it means it.

    Hi I'm a new member, I've been working for Whiteline Express for almost 16 months now - they changed the pay to the better shortly after I started. I had 4 years exp when I started with them, within a few weeks my pay (based on experience) went from 35 cpm to 39 cpm - I now have 5 years and I'm at 40. They top out at 41 with 6 or more verifiable experience. They are absolutely 100% no touch, I think I've only swept out 1 trailer in over a year. They don't run you hard however and give you a lot of time to deliver, they advertise 2000 miles a week getting home 3 weekends out of the month. I'm 62 and wanted to wind down some, but they have a nice quarterly bonus that has averaged (for me) over $400 a quarter, this is based on safety etc. Most people don't know they are a division of Plastipak, a billion dollar company that makes plastic preforms and bottles for companies like Pepsi, Motts, Doctor Pepper and my more, very financially secure trucking company. If you want to make a decent living and don't want to bust a nut doing it, whiteline is probably the best kept secret, and by the way good benefits with 401K 50% match and profit sharing as well. Good luck hope you find what you're looking for.
