Roehl vs. TMC

In my opinion I would go with tmc. Any questions let me know

 

I would have to agree. The pay is better and the equipment is nicer. From what I understand they have one of the best fleets. I'm actually going to work for Roehl on Monday. I plan on doing a year with them then maybe sliding over to TMC. I'm going to start a thread on Roehl and how everything goes from student to driver. I'll probably start it on Sunday.

 

What area do you reside in??? That will help determining if you can take your truck home. And taking your truck home has many different versions.... some think taking the truck home means parking it at a local truckstop, which I do not agree with at all, especially if it is loaded. You need to realize that theft is up quite a bit and sometimes you will have over $250,000 worth of cargo on. Quite a tempting treat to a theif who knows you are nowhere near the truck.

I say if you can park the truck at your HOME, outside your door then it would not be an issue. TMC has a lot of approved parking area's as well.

 

kash I will also be attending Roehl In gary Monday, that where you going also? Coming from South Carolina

 

Hsauer, yes from what I hear they are very selective. I hear applicants who try to get on with TMC, have to look the part and meet a certain criteria. This is one of the reasons why I'm going to Roehl first.

Jake, yes I am also going to attend orientation at Gary, IN. I live in the lower part of AL, kinda near Pensacola, FL. I will be flying in on Sunday. Are you going for the F/B devision? Thats what I'm going there for. Hope to see you there!

 

yea I will be flatbed, im driving, leaving out tomm. around 2 driving to Dayton,Oh and staying the night then I'll have roughly 4hrs left to Hammond,In.. Figure I will get to Dayton around 11pm and check out about 10-11am Sunday to finish it up, Im thinking I should have caught the bird myself LOL....

 

You will be happy you drove because there is not any restruants near the hotel they put you at. Will be nice being able to drive to where you want. I can tell you of a few places closer to eat but mainly everything is south of I94 by exit2 (Indianapolis Blvd.)

 

yea I guess thats one way to look at it, I think I got to turn the car in around 7pm Sunday night so getting there few hours before will give me a chance to get a few things... Looking forward to this but getting a lil shaky at the same time now!!
