Anyone know any good day Cab or LTL companies in Indianapolis

JAT of Fort Wayne is also hiring.

 

I think Sodrel hauls mail.

 

If you're looking for companies like UPSF or FedEx, that's a good city to be in. All the major ltl companies have big operations there.

Old Dominion
FedEx Freight
UPSF
ABF
Yrc
Con-way
Estes
R&L

That's a start. Some are better than others but definitely worth checking into.

 

Dayton Freight has a terminal in Greenwood Indiana. Just off I65 exit 99. The pay and benefits are great. They are always taking applications for both P&D (city) and line-haul drivers. Applications are taken online at their website.

Indianapolis
800 Commerce Parkway South Dr
GREENWOOD IN 46143
317.865.2600

 

How good is Dayton's health insurance? Big deductible? How much per week? Starting out in line-haul do you run open board? Slip seat or assigned tractor's? Thanks

 

Sodrel does haul mail, although I don't think that's all they handle. I've talked to a couple of their drivers and they didn't have anything bad to say. I do know that Sodrel doesn't hire very often, so reading between the lines that tells me they're a good company to drive for.

Stay away from Ruan if it involves the O'Neal Steel account in Indianapolis.

 

Had to read that last sentence several times. Those two are also in my area, same property.
Thought it was a just local company with horrible pay. Some googling, Wow multi-billion dollar company.





OP from 2012

 

Ha! That's what I get for not looking at the dates. No wonder I'm always late for the party.

Shaggy, Ruan is a good company to work for and even that account is a good one. That particular location, however, has its own special set of problems.

 

Ruan advertises weekly on craigslist about a account. From my area to boston a few times a week, it's the Oneal account. The hours invested/stress/pay is not worth it, Just basing my opinion off this classified and how frequently it's posted.

Yeah thought oneal/ruan was a local company. Learn something new each day thanks Naptown




EDIT: thought it sounded odd. We had guys jump ship from oneal and ruan to another big local flatbbeder carrier i worked at with a different steel mill company. Ah excuse my brain fart. Those guys were miserable and didn't find the grass green at the new employer either. Employer at the time was stuck on early 2000's pay structure, Steady work but out dated pay. something oneal didnt have.

I don't miss working for steel mill drama, Miss flabedding though. Useless info
