Watkins Shepard East Coast

I'm scheduled to start their 10 day prientation on 7/9 and so far my experince with them has been terrific! From what I hear they have plenty of miles available and some good incentives that could get you some extra $$ per mile. Not sure what they haul but I know locally they have mostly furniture accounts. I also hear they are like 90% drop and hook.

 

Danc is the resident expert on this company. He has pretty much sold me and my husband on it. I'm sure he will weigh in and help you out!

 

We just picked up a new account in that area. Expect lots of miles, most of it northeast, coming out of Hickory.

Teams will do the western runs. With some going to solos.

 

Yup it's furniture. LTL for the most part too I am assuming. aka multi-stop. If you intend to go regional, buy yourself a dolly. And strap it to the back of your cab.

Oh, and you're going to get out west if you go OTR. Then you'll be screaming to come back east LOL.

Once you get in the "system" they can run you for weeks on end, in a circle, out west.

 

woot! join the dolly to back of cab club trust me i know im in itid really perfer not to be but gotta do what ya gotta do

 

I prefer it. Same or better money than OTR. More hometime.
