Oakley transport in Lake Wales Florida

I go by there when i go home and always seen the now hiring sign.. so i got my tanker endorsement and called them an i got the not hiring...augh would kinda been nice to get something closer to home but oh well...i work for shaffer/crete out of the deland terminal and i gotta park my truck there for my home time, i live south of ft. myers an it seems to take forever to get home..but i should be happy i have a job..

 

From what I hear , it's about the same as it's always been... I can't speak firsthand as I don't drive for them.

If you see an Oakley driver, it might not hurt to ask his opinion. I spend alot of time near Lakeland and see their trucks quite often.

 

say away far away if you need to make a living

 

i talked to many drivers from oakley and bynum. I worked at IRT and they are pretty much the same. long waits at shippers and receivers and tank washes with no pay for it. thats what drove me away from those juice haulers. Oakley also pulls oil with pump tanks, so those loads would have less waiting time.

 

i am talking 4,6,8 and 12 hour waits at the customer. Not all the time, but on a pretty regular basis. This may or may not bother you. Some guys dont mind.

 

Paul withrow run L.C.T into the ground and now he,s here at Oakley doing the same thing.

 

thanks for the info
