what does anyone have to say about IWX trucking company out of springfield.. ?

Loaded question, You will get they are the worce company and some will say they are great, take your pick witch one you think is a better answer, Not all companies can keep every driver happy

 

I applied for a job there once because I liked the routes that they ran and if you like to run like that they can be good but there are a LOT of rules and a lot were non-sensical.
The guy hiring grilled me for 15 mins about breaking a marker light off of the top of the trailer once (a tree limb broke it) and after he done that I just walked out.
But if you dont mind dealing with the rules (I understand all companies need rules but there is a point there is too many) they would be a good company to work for.

 

I see only teams driving all I-40 corridor from Ca To Pa and back,i heard miles are always there,equipment not bad,but i dont know how they treat drivers.

 

I worked there for 5 years. There are a LOT of rules and most don't make sense. They have a tendency to change their policies without bothering to let any drivers know. Over all they were decent though. Excellent maintenance program for trucks and trailers. I don't think I have worked anywhere else that could match their shop set up.

 

I worked or them back in 2001 and 2002. Great company as far as maintaining equipment, but do not damage it. If you make sure to do a complete pretrip check before hooking to a trailer you will do great. Same on drop and hooks like at Walmart DC's if there is damage call it in before hooking up and take pictures of the damage.

Lots of miles while I was there, kind of depended on the dispatcher, most would accommodate requests if they could. They would run we from the west coast thru to Edinburgh IN yard and let me know when it had to be there to drop and hook. If you were late would have to delivery the load. Turn and burn was the favorite phrase.
