Am I the only one who finds it amazing that anyone would name their company Bork, or Tanks-a-Lot?

I would expect my dispatcher to look like the Swedish Chef.

Hows Haulass Trucking for a name?

I worked for Bork transport of Illinois (legal Name Tanks-a-lot). They will lie to your face and promise you the world. I feel that it is my duty to my fellow owner operators to tell them about this company practices. First of all they will skim off the top of your % pay and your fuel surcharge which they say is suppose to be 100%. They say that they will remburse you for tolls collected from they customer but will not even if you turn in your toll receipts. I have spoken to multiple drivers when I was there that repeatedly had problems with their settements every week. They will try to not pay you for any detention time owed to you unless you stay on their back about it. The dispatching is horrible as well. They will deadhead you 300 miles out of route without even blinking an eye and if you say that you do not want the load they are trying to send you out of route to get, they will let you sit just to try and teach you a lesson. Also if you are not in the click forget about being treated fairly as far as getting good paying loads offered to you. They will try to have you go preload loads for their drivers that are in the click and only pay you 50.00 to go load. To this day I am still owed over 1000.00 for work proformed. I have repeatedly sent emails and left phone messages trying to collect what is owed to me and they will not return any emails or calls. ( Good luck getting any money owed to you once you decide to leave). Any O/O thinking about going to work for this outfit, save yourself the grief and headache and take my advice or you will be sorry. I have been driving in the tank industry for years and this is by far the worse tank outfit I have ever seen. I decided to post this because I tried to find out about this company on trucker report before signing on with them but no information was available.

You are absolutely correct on these folks...I work there currently...but not for long.. Most of the accusations are correct...at least the ones I know about...deadhead rate at 50% and must have one of the biggest turnover rates in the industry.

I have never read a more crazy statement, I have worked here for numerous years. I have always been treated fairly and have been paid for all my delay time. I do as I am asked and I get backhauls all the time. You must not know what it is to run SMART. If you are looking for a company to work for I have to say this is one of the best there is, they care and treat you as family.

Lol. Another one post wonder defending Bork. This company is too funny now to even take seriously.

We are very sorry to hear about the experience you had at Bork Transport. Bork Transport practices transparency and integrity in its business practices. BTI still believes and does practice that people are their greatest asset and therefore strives to treat them as such. BTI holds high standards in its business but occasionally a slight imperfection of dissatisfaction slips by. BTI wants every owner operator to be satisfied with their experience at BTI.

In closing, Bork Transport has owner operators who have spent over 10 years making a great living for themselves and their families. Your comment about not being a part of a clique is very sad. Because the truth is known, all transportation companies realize that they supply the work and the owner operator provides the service. Everyone must work together to be successful. Bork Transport wishes you and yours the very best in future endeavors.
By,
Truth Informer

IVE BEEN AT BORK FOR 10 YEARS PLUS AND IF I EVER HAD ANY PROBLEMS THEY ALWAYS GOT RESOLVED. I STAY BUSY ALL THE TIME. I GET HOME EVERY OTHER WEEKEND MOST OF THE TIME AND I REALLY ENJOY IT. PEOPLE IN THE OFFICE ARE FUNNY AS ALL GET OUT.
