Stay away from marten transport, let's start from top. Dispatchers tell you very little, so ask alot of questions. Make sure you ask for layover on the weekend s because you will be sitting with no load. Miles?....you be lucky to get 1800 a week. If you and your dispatcher don't get along, ask for another right away or he/she will give u all the ###### runs, which means no miles. Don't be afraid to stand up for yourself or they'll walk all over u. Good luck
Dinomite Thanks this. -
i WOUILD ADVISE ALL DRIVERS TO STAY AWAY FROM MARTEN TRANSPORT FOR ALL REASONS AND SOME!!!! I JUST LEFT MARTEN THIS MONTH(MAR 2014), "THEY ARE LOW DOWN DIRTY COMPANY TO WORK FOR.." THEY LIE TO THE ENTIRE TIME U THERE, TREAT THERE DRIVERS LIKE CRAP (SLAVES),THE PAY IS HORRIBLE THERE,THDISPATCHERS TALK TO U LIKE YOU'RE TRASH (ONLY IF U ALLOW THEM TO DO SO), THEY LIE TO U ABOUT THE LOADS, THEY FORCE U TO RUN LOADS UP NORTH,WHEN U DON'T TURN THEM DOWN!!!! THEY BLACK-BALL U WHEN U TURN DOWN LOADS ALSO, AND LASTLY , THEY HAVE ######## EQUIPTMENT, THAT WILL PUT U DOWN ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD!!! IF YOU KNOW ANYONE DRIVER OR DRIVER'S THINKING ABOUT GOING OVER TO MARTEN TRANSPORT TELL THEM " RUN FORREST RUN !!!!!!"

Martin is funny
I called them once, told the recruiter,"Five years experience, no accidents, no tickets, no service failures."
All of which is true. I asked what they had in the way of a job for me. The recruiter said, "sorry we don't hire in your area."
The very next monday I got a email from the community college I attended that said, "Martin Transport is needing drivers in the area....." All with a advertisement from Martin.
Too bad. I am glad I made the call. I now know what kind of company they are and don't have to ever wonder about them again. -
That's how they operate toomanybikes. If you have more than 3 years of experience they don't want u because they'll have to pay too much for. They rather higher they less experienced and knowledgeable drivers so they can take advantage of and pay less. You dodged a bullet toomanybikes.
Toomanybikes Thanks this. -
