Hansen And Adkins .....

Main training center's in Jacksonville, FL. Require 3 years provable in last five. Top tier, good CSA and their west coast unit has even better CSA. 5 or 6 weeks training, I think. More cats per square foot, the four-legged kind, mostly neutered, than you've probably seen before. Visited them in 2012 while tooting around the country interviewing trucking companies.

Unlike freight, or so I'm told, when you leave out they ask when you'll be there. "Oh, Thursday or Friday," is good enough as long as you DO deliver Thursday or Friday. Mostly all daycabs, so you cross the country from motel to motel.

Hansen and Adkins is STILL on my list of maybe's. I liked them.

Worth a visit.

 

Hi Ace, I believe they pay very well for company driver, well above average for freight. Not just 'decent'. Their trainer was an old hand, had been an O/O for them for a long time. My hunch is that he has retired by now. I'm sure if you Google them in Jackson, then call and ask to talk to trainer. If it were me and I were interested and making the change to car hauling, I'd make a visit.

That's my best advice, go say 'hi'. Spend a day there.

 

Hey! That's great, congratulations. Hope you will update us here with YOUR experience. Now, you're the expert, the man.

Look forward to hearing from you and hope you will report in depth if allowed. (Not a bad idea to check and see how H&A feels about being reviewed in real time. Could help them recruit, after all.)

I think you've found yourself a good outfit.

 

Hi Ace I too just left foodservice for carhauling. I just completed my first week training and like it so far. I will be running the mid atlantic ie va, nc, wv, sc.

 

How your training going? I'm looking forward to hearing, been busy this week havn't had much time online.
