new info. on Melton truck lines

yeah he was a true gear jammer i road with him and it was rough... I am in an 08 T-660, i love it never drove with the super singles though but i like they do good in the mud..lol.. im very excited to be working for Melton iv only run 2 runs and sat for a weekend but it was at home so not to bad just hope not every weekend.

 

From info I got at Melton's HQ today, they WILL be doing hair folicle testing in the near future. Apparently there were some employees that got caught with dirty wee-wee... So they're ramping up testing to exclude persons still trying to beat the system.

They were also supposed to gave a sniffer dog at the terminal today...

BTW, I washed out for that standing on one leg test... Oh well...

At least I can get tested anytime, in any fashion and pass.

No bad feelings.

 

Good ol' Pro Tec.

For future loads there, you CAN request them to load suicide. Most places have the capability to unload either way. Sure, some of them can only do suicide or only shotgun...but most can do either, seeing as the crane is on a swivel . I just got one there friday and delivered in Talladega..no questions asked about why i was loaded suicide

 

Those of you at Melton now, what kind of miles are you averaging on you pay checks? I was told 2200-2500, but that is recruiter talk.

 

to ecubed82 and noggin is it true that melton run's you late so you get service failures or whatever they call them I am looking into possibly joining Melton but im kinda leary after reading some of the comments on these forum's ??

 

When I drove there, I usually had more than enough time to get to the consignee. Sometimes I had a just in time load and it was close. My DM was more than willing to reschedule a delivery. Just stay in contact with them and don't mess around. I never had a service failure.

 

What he said. I have never been late to a p/u or delivery. I have had more than enough time, but if I would be cutting it close, my dm rescheduled...although most places receive you whenever you get there...

and for you Iraq...I've been averaging about 2000, but winter is slower. Last summer I'd say I averaged about 2500-2800

 

Many amny moons again they were refered to as trhe home of the running rabbit them was the good old days sure miss them not a lot of BS as compared to today

 

thank you guy's for the info looking into Melton only problem is looks like they dont take driver's right out of school I'd much rather get hired with melton and stay with melton rather then go with a "other " carrier so we'l see they got a terminal bout 30 miles from my house

 

Yeah, they require 3 months experience I think. Are you going to a CDL school, or an actual college school?
