    only thing i know about them is i had a CT driver come up to me at the fuel island in OH the other day to ask about W/S and he was telling me how much CT sucks and how they sit and dont get the miles (he's been driving 3 years, only 1 with them).

    I remember back in 2008 when i was in Truck driving school there recruiter sounded like a real dumb ###

    The Vehicle Maintenance section is terrible. I didn't realize they hired students, in my area they want 6 months experience. They are always hiring, so that should tell you something, but why are they sitting? The P&D guys are hourly, so why would they care, and the linehaul guys still probably get paid by the hour for all time on line 4. Do they have a truckload division?

    run away as fast as you can..... they'll short your pay, the worst equipment, and basicly could care less about you. but you can make a decent wage. I make about a grand a week another guy makes about 1400 a week.

    I have worked for Central going on 6 years now. I'm a P&D driver on West Coast. I will have to admit when I started, equiptment was horrible and freight was embarrassing to deliver. I'm now driving a brand new truck, they're working on improving the CSA scores by fixing their equiptment, and freight isnt all damaged. Central is like anyother trucking job...Your going to find the good and bad. And I make a good living.

    yea we are supposed to get new trucks within 90 days, it has gotten a little better, they are just so unorganized..we had three trucks break down,in 1 day, since we are getting new trucks it seems like they wont fix any of the old.

    just to advise anybody trying to work for central transport the yellow trucks(trucks are piece of ####,terminals piece of ####,management what a joke,they treat drivers like #### and if u google this company and put there reviews u will find very horrific stories,so i would sugest to anybody to look somewhere else.)try fedex or ups☻
