Hi Wannabe, good heavens, I'm no road warrior, and don't know much about Celadon, but I know VanWyk has been around a long time. I see ads for Celadon all the time, but hardly ever for VanWyk. VanWyk is out of Iowa, not sure how much you'd get home, Celadon is big, but I think you'd be better off with VanWyk. Good luck.
Chinatown Thanks this. -
where do you live in jersey ? ...im ex van wyk .
-
Van Wyk...Celadon is too darn big to give a crap a about you.
-
Thank you all for ur input. I live in monmouth cty

This, Celadon is a bottom feeder.....

van wyk is a no brainer for you but they arnt perfect either , only reason i left was mike vogl and i didnt care much for each other but that was personal ....vw treats theyre drivers dam well , youll run top notch trucks and trailers , run good miles , all trucks are isx 480 hp with 13 speeds governed at 68 mph .
you should have no prob getting home cause tyson ships at least 3 loads a day to wakefern in keasby nj out of dakota city ne .
they dont have stupid routing or dumps for fuel stops ...they answer the phone and the qualcomm doesent go off 20 times a day .
when you are in sheldon they put you up at a very nice holiday inn and have 2 courtesy cars for the drivers to use and your paycheck is in the bank every friday morn .
the shop people are good people too and if theres a prob they fix it asap whether its at theyre shop or on the road at the dealer ...youll never drive an old pos truck either , when they hit 4 yrs or 480 k theyre gone .
good luck to you !Chinatown and "semi" retired Thank this. -
Thxs bzinger that's where I'm heading. Can u tell me what was take home pay on avg
-
i usaully grossed around a1000.00 buks a week but youll prob do better cause freight rates are up now and after 27 yrs of truckin im startin to take my time ...glad to hear your not going to a sleazebag outfit like swifty or smelladon .
a hustler at vw will make good bank and they will keep you busy ....they were also dam good about getting me home too . -
Thxs again bzinger. I think they're rate is 20.5% of freight
