west motor freight

been with west since 2001 and i am sorry to say that it's time to move on after looking over their new lease for 2014. i can say they were once a great company to lease to but not anymore.

 

for one they are going to charge 12.00 a week to do your ifta which they never did.the 2014 lease will be for one year only,and then they will have the option to change the lease on a month by month basis.startin in 2014 you will have only 60 days from invoice date to contest a freight charge. workers comp is going to be an issue.acc.charges have always been an issue with me,when you unload a trailer at customer they get 25% of fee,you do the work and they get a cut.there was an ad in movin out mag where it stated extra pay for w/e work,when i asked about it(as i work weekends) their response was that was untrue.i'm still waiting for detention on a load from 4 months ago.they used to pay a lil extra if you deadheaded more than 100 miles,not anymore.this is supposed to be a non forced dispatch company but if you turn down to many loads they will not dispatch you.when it came to loads to haul they used to offer you from a list of what they had,not anymore they just tell you your next load.i could go on an on
