    Looking for a local job in western Pennsylvania. I was with US Foods 9 years until they shut down the plant I drove for. Great pay, union,vacation, personal days they had. Now Driving a bucket for local company. Gone all the time the pay is low. Does anyone know of local trucking companies in western Pa that actually pay good? Thanks

    Hey Outofworkjoe, not sure how to use this website yet. I have to type in my password continually, it is checked remember me.. Anyhow, I am out of north Pittsburgh. I too was in the navy the kitty hawk. Yes there is a Sysco south of where I am at, I hear they pay is crap, min 50 hr week. I am never home now.US Foods was a great job, I planned on making it until retirement.

    Our benefits stink now. The deductable is 1,000 for a family. Unless we were seriously sick, we will never use that much medical. Do you know of any mail haulers near mercer county, Pa? Thanks for your input...

    There's a mail hauler in Butler, PA hiring. You drive from Butler and New Castle, PA to Warrendale, PA. A real gravy run, especially in the winter months!
