RISINGER=Morton Illinois Beware

Caution to all new owner operators, if you sign up at Risinger make sure you know what you are getting yourself into. If you don't stay with them for 6 months they take what they call Disposition and take $500.00 dollars out of your last paycheck. Nothing is like they tell you in orientation either.
The fuel surcharge is not calculated by the weekly rates. You do not get 100% of the fuel surcharge. They pay zip code to zip code so the drivers is out at least 20%. The fuel discount no way makes up the lost fuel surcharge.
They also have an escrow account of $2500.00 you have to pay in each week for 2 1/2 months-They also force you to have an maintenance account.
I lost at least $6000.00 working for them.
I'm now at Oakley Trucking in Arkansas and can say it's a great place to work. Doing the same mileage and making alot alot alot more money.

 

They have 30 days to send me my last pay check, and escrow account. Will let you know what I get back. $6000 is the difference in fuel surcharge tax and actual miles driven, that I figured from my last job and the money I made at Risinger. they don't pay interest to me on my escrow account. Add in the $500.00 they took from my pay check for the disposition fee, which my check was $0.00. I drove 2400 miles.
