    Just don't call you late for dinner......

    Someone wanted to send a private message and they had to get 9 or so posts before they could send one....it was just spam, forum style.

    Trying to help a guy out that was going to join the same company I work for. Figured I would give him as much info as possible before he spent time trying or stay put...

    For anyone that has not hauled cars before and are interested in it this is what I suggest you do.

    Find a Dealer's Only Auction in your area. There may be some smaller ones where you live but the biggest ones are Manheim Auto Auctions and ADESA Auto Auctions. They have locations all over the country. Go there and watch the guys loading their trucks. Be polite and ask them some questions about their work. Just a warning though.... alot of these guys get paid a percentage of their load and are in a hurry (ie. the more they haul, the more they get paid). But There are always a few who like to talk and would be more than willing to explain what we do and how we do it. Also they will have a good idea about who in the area is hiring, who is willing to train a new driver and who is good to work for and which companies to avoid. Plus by watching these guys doing there job you might be able to decide if this is a job you would be able or wiling to do.
