This is all the information I got from a recruiter I talked to over the phone just about 3 days ago :


Stuck in Salt Lake City a lot at their terminal

Newer Freightliner Cascadias only. (9 speeds or automatics) you get what you get...

Inverters are allowed and company will install, trucks come with refrigerators

No Apu's but you can idle truck for AC, get a bonus if you don't, truck's have bunk heaters

Governed at 65, rpm's aren't governed

Detention = 2hrs free then $15 and hour

Layover = $50 dollars a day (24 hrs)

OTR expenses all paid by company, same program with Comdata card (advance / reimburse)

Forced Dispatch

Paid daily M-F however you have to mail paperwork with trippack or turn in in SLC (Basically weekly)

1 rider allowed over 8 yrs old (30 dollars a month)

Dogs allowed, ($500 dollar fee non-refundable)

 

Hope that gives you a little insight into the company, I may go with them, but there's a lot there I don't quite like, so I'm weighing my options else where.

 

Cancel...Posted on wrong thread.

 

I didn't ask the recruiter about that. You could give them a call tomorrow and have them explain it to you. Or maybe one of their driver's will know. Good luck in your adventures pal.

 

The video on their web site should give you all the information you need to make a sound decision...because there isn't much written information; so the video is your guide. Good luck: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=loGvDV5DO2s&feature=player_embedded

 

Video says it all...."Hi, my name is Jeff ENGLAND". Yep, says all a driver needs to know.
